What's the difference between endochondral and intercartilaginous?
Endochondral
Definition:
(a.) Growing or developing within cartilage; -- applied esp. to developing bone.
Example Sentences:

(8) During early stages of development of matrix-induced implants, ED1, Ia-positive monocytes-macrophages were observed, suggesting that in the initial phases of the endochondral bone formation cascade, the bone-inductive protein osteogenin and related bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs) might serve as potent chemoattractants to recruit circulating monocytes.
(9) Demineralized bone matrix induces ectopic endochondral bone formation.
(10) Membranous and endochondral ossification processes are insufficient to describe all the aspects observed in the growing skeleton.
(11) Endochondral ossification did not occur in this system.
(12) Thanatophoric dwarfism is associated with disorganized endochondral ossification similar to that in homozygous achondroplasia, but there is no accumulation of glycogen within chondrocytes.
(13) The following results were obtained: The thickness of the cartilaginous layer and the growth rate of the endochondral bone formation decreased with age.
(14) It has been proved that lengthening of 0.4 mm per day by way of slow distraction would not cause epiphysiolysis, and that lengthening took place as a result of increased osteogenesis and augmented endochondral ossification in the epiphyseal plate, being induced by distraction at a slow rate.
(15) can induce ectopic endochondral bone formation when implanted into the skeletal muscle of immunosuppressed or autologous animals.
(16) The organic specificity of the metaepiphyseal borderline zone depends, first of all, on its intermediate position between the cartilage, fulfilling further bone growth lengthwise as an organ, and a developing endochondral bone substituting cartilage in the epiphysis.
(17) Type II collagen gene transcripts were found in all the chondrogenic tissues of the axial and appendicular skeleton until the onset of endochondral ossification.
(18) Theoretical investigations indicate that mechanical loading histories beginning very early in skeletal development may guide endochondral ossification patterns and the initial architectural construction of bones.
(19) As the transplanted tumor shows features of calcified chondrosarcoma, this tumor is thought to be an excellent model for study of the process of dystrophic endochondral calcification.
(20) On the contrary, our data clearly demonstrate that bone-forming tumors can be obtained by either IP route, in a way which mimics endochondral ossification, or in the brain (IB), a region usually devoid of connective tissue.
Intercartilaginous
Definition:
(a.) Within cartilage; endochondral; as, intercartilaginous ossification.
Example Sentences:
(1) The second consisted of small cells that fired with an expiratory rhythm, had no significant afterhyperpolarization, and projected to the intercartilaginous spaces.
(2) A morphological model of the tidemark region was established, which represents the intercartilaginous junction as a double layer of substantially and functionally different surfaces.
(3) Surgery consisted of an intercartilaginous tracheal slit, with apposition of tracheal mucosa to skin.
(4) The important role of the intercartilaginous junction in the pathogenesis and progress of osteoarthrosis is stressed.
(5) Several components of the tracheal wall including the airway smooth muscle band, the cartilaginous region and the intercartilaginous region generated significant levels of [3H]-InsPs in response to ET-1 and carbachol.
(6) Small areas of depression may be corrected with viable or nonviable cartilage or synthetic implants through an intercartilaginous incision.
(7) The technique described includes an adequate exposure through a bilateral gingivolabial sulcus incision connected by an intercartilaginous incision, release of the displaced alar base and columella, freeing of the alar cartilage from the opposite side and from overlying skin, repositioning of the alar cartilage and alar dome to a normal anatiomical position, and maintenance by a through and through mattress suture and a post-operative nasal pack.
(8) The tracheas from eight macaque monkeys were fixed with glutaraldehyde-paraformaldehyde, embedded in glycol methacrylate, serially sectioned at 2 microns, and histochemically stained to demonstrate neutral, sialylated, and sulfated mucosubstances in the cartilaginous, intercartilaginous, and membranous regions of both proximal and distal trachea.
(9) They were a continuation of the intercartilaginous main vessels of the neotracheal wall.
(10) The use of buccal mucosal flaps in the intercartilaginous incision is helpful to decrease scarring and contracture by facilitating alar cartilage repositioning and wound closure without tension.
(11) The motoneuronal distribution of the intercostal and intercartilaginous muscles showed less overlap than that of the abdominal muscles.
(12) Scanning electron microscopic studies of the skeleton showed normal intercartilaginous septa in the metaphyses of long bones, covered by uniform, calcifying globules 1 mum in diameter.
(13) Using an intercartilaginous, a transseptal and a circumvestibular incision in the nose and a vestibular incision in the oral cavity the soft tissues of the upper face are mobilized and transposed cranially up to the infraorbital rim, the nasion and the lacrimal sac.
(14) In the systematic approach to rhinoplasty, the author routinely uses an intercartilaginous columellar incision for dissection and reconstruction of the nasal tip, especially to facilitate separation of the tip cartilages from other tissues in the lower third of the nose.
(15) Following stimulation with ET-1, a greater proportion of tracheal [3H]-InsPs were generated in the intercartilaginous region (49%) than in either the airway smooth muscle band (25%) or cartilaginous region (26%).
(16) The medial crus enclosed in a hemiforked flap slides along the membranous septal incision; the lateral crus slides along the intercartilaginous incision; they join each other as the stem of a Y, where they are secured in their new relationship to the septum and upper lateral cartilage.
(17) Appropriate and delicate handling of the intercartilaginous aponeurosis between the upper lateral (roof) cartilage and the lower lateral (lobular or alar) cartilage with prevention of excessive scar tissue formation usually can be achieved by dissection on the upper lateral cartilage.
(18) A specially designed percutaneous tracheostomy tool slides over the guidewire into the trachea; by squeezing its handles, the intercartilaginous space is enlarged, securing the placement of a cuffed tracheal cannula.
(19) In all primary cases, a lateral mucosal L-flap was inserted into the intercartilaginous incision.
