What's the difference between ethmoidal and sievelike?
Ethmoidal
Definition:
(a.) Like a sieve; cribriform.
(a.) Pertaining to, or in the region of, the ethmoid bone.
Example Sentences:
(1) Epistaxis was common in tumors of the ethmoid sinus and nasal fossae, while pain was related to lesions of the maxillary sinus.
(2) Because of the extensive soft-tissue and osseous involvement, all patients required composite resection of the orbit, the ethmoidal sinus, the orbital contents, and the soft tissue of the eyelids, brow, and temporal region.
(3) The other structures or regions that were involved, in decreasing order of frequency, were the sphenoid sinus (26.7%), nasal fossa (21.8%), and ethmoid sinus (18.3%).
(4) The richly vascularized gland is supplied on its medial surface by large branches of the supraorbital and ethmoidal arteries.
(5) the sphenoid, ethmoid, and occipital bones) and to abnormal spatial relationships between the cribriform plate and the crista galli, resulting in a positional disarrangement of the points of basal attachment of the dura matter.
(6) The ethmoid air cell labyrinth lies adjacent to the medial orbital wall, extending even beyond the sutures of the ethmoid bone.
(7) From 1970 to 1985, 45 patients with carcinoma of the upper nasal cavity and ethmoid sinuses were radically treated.
(8) The occurrence of an ethmoid exposure in the orbit of Indri suggests that this trait is not a simple function of orbital size and convergence.
(9) The cerebrospinal rhinorrhea recurred four and six months after operation in the two patients with fistulas to the posterior ethmoids probably due to surgical, technical problems in one patient and to less support by the plaster of Paris, when the fistulas end in this region.
(10) Inflammatory disease of the posterior sinuses (sphenoid and posterior ethmoid cells) may not clinically be apparent and might be overlooked.
(11) A detailed review of forty-six patients with severe naso-orbital-ethmoid injury confirms that naso-lacrimal system injury is less common than originally suspected.
(12) The response (increase in action potential frequency) of nasopalatine and ethmoidal nerves to brief presentations of formaldehyde, ozone, or amyl alcohol was a power function of stimulus concentration.
(13) A new staging system according to the regions involved was used; 31 patients in whom the tumour was limited to the nasopharynx (Stage I) and those with superior spread into the ethmoid or sphenoid sinuses (Stage IIA) had their tumours removed by a transpalatal route, alone or in combination with other approaches.
(14) The common sites of extra-nasopharyngeal extension detected by CT scan are: parapharyngeal space, intracranial invasion, sphenoidal sinus, orbit, ethmoidal sinus, maxillary antrum, oropharynx and the nasal cavity.
(15) This again proves that the anterior ethmoid holds the key position for re-infection or cure of the larger dependent sinuses.
(16) CT scan taken after the operation showed the tumor rested only in the right ethmoid sinus.
(17) The lateral wall of the olfactory fossa, a thin bony plate forming part of the roof of the ethmoid sinuses, is routinely visualized on plain skull radiography and pluridirectional tomography in the coronal plane and serves as an indicator of intracranial tumor extension.
(18) The maxillary sinus, the sphenoid sinus and the ethmoid cells were opened on both sides during ten resections of the skull base.
(19) The anterior ethmoid sinus and posterior ethmoid sinus were cleared depending on the excisable extent of the lesion and the sphenoid sinus wound be opened if necessary.
(20) Thin-section tomography in coronal and lateral projections illustrates the detailed ethmoid anatomy.
Sievelike
Definition:
Example Sentences:
(1) The differential features distinguishing adenoid cystic carcinoma from these other neoplasms include: (1) tight, globular, honey-comb arrangements of cells lacking true nuclear molding; (2) acellular chunks of basal lamina material, which alone may suggest adenoid carcinoma; and (3) the extension of a solid core of basal lamina material beyond a sievelike cellular meshwork.
(2) They are highly specialized cells designed to sequester large amounts of various types of particulate matter, not only through phagocytosis but by trapping and retaining vast numbers of particles within a net- or sievelike layer of granular material which surrounds the free surface of the fixed phagocyte.
