What's the difference between imbricate and imbricated?
Imbricate
Definition:
(a.) Alt. of Imbricated
(v. t.) To lay in order, one lapping over another, so as to form an imbricated surface.
Example Sentences:
(1) Inductive influence of the fascial transplant has been measured in two patients; a tenfold increase in net collagen synthesis and deposition occurs for at least one year following transplantation of fascia to an imbricated scar recipient area.
(2) Following this review, we presently recommend anatomical repair to the bone of both the anterior talofibular ligament and the calcaneofibular ligament, together with imbrication of the ligaments.
(3) The biopsy specimens from the first four surgeries showed a stroma-free spindle cell tumor with benign cytologic features and no mitotic activity, which exhibited palisading of nuclei, imbrication of delicate cytoplasmic processes (neuropil), true perivascular rosettes with cytoplasmic processes oriented perpendicular to vessel walls, and Wright rosettes.
(4) Anatomic ligament reconstruction with shortening, reinsertion, and imbrication of the elongated ligaments, a simple procedure with good long-term results, might be a better alternative than other more complex ligament reconstructions.
(5) Imbrication laryngoplasty is an alternative and a preferred modality for treatment of young people with early glottic carcinoma for whom the possible carcinogenic properties of radiation must be considered.
(6) This is accomplished by the use of multiple sclerotomies that expand the scleral shell, by use of fixation sutures between implant and shell that additionally reduce tension on the wound closure, and by the imbrication of the anterior scleral flaps to enhance the strength of the closure.
(7) Once the required shape has been achieved, the tissues at the base of the nipple, as well as the proximal cut portion of the ducts imbricating them, are reapproximated in layers to prevent recurrence.
(8) At that level, a close relationship between lymphoctes and muscle cells was observed, with imbrication of the plasma membranes and disappearance of the basal laminae.
(9) Imbrication of this part of the capsule increased the resistance to inferior and posterior translation.
(10) Limitation of motion and obligate translation were increased by operative imbrication and diminished by sectioning of the rotator interval capsule.
(11) An adequate subcutaneous tunnel was made to accept the transferred muscle and laxity of the ulnar collateral ligament of the metacarpal-phalangeal joint of the thumb, a consistent finding in patients with isolated aplasia of the abductor pollicis brevis and opponens pollicis muscles, was repaired by imbrication and suture of one of the tendinous slips to the ulnar capsule.
(12) Imbricated fractures must occasionally be repositioned surgically (2 cases).
(13) The radial collateral-ligament complex was advanced and imbricated in three of them.
(14) Plication was performed by imbricating the diaphragm in layers through a thoracotomy.
(15) Experience over a 16-year period with 38 patients who underwent partial laryngectomy with imbrication reconstruction is reviewed.
(16) The edges were rolled back and imbricated with 7-0 and 8-0 polyglactin sutures.
(17) However, anatomical ligament reconstruction (with shortening, re-insertion and imbrication of the healed but elongated ligament) is a simple procedure with good short- and long-term results, which may often be a better alternative than other more complex reconstructive procedures.
(18) One hundred and seventy-six patients (180 ankles) who had chronic lateral instability of the ankle were treated with transection and imbrication of the anterior talofibular ligament.
(19) After adequate undermining, hemostasis and imbrication, the skin flaps are rotated and advanced with sequential tension in contrast to the use of bipolar or tripolar anchoring points.
(20) At a minimum of 7 months after retinacular imbrication, all vertical and craniocaudal measurements in the affected limb were increased significantly.
Imbricated
Definition:
(a.) Bent and hollowed like a roof or gutter tile.
(a.) Lying over each other in regular order, so as to "break joints," like tiles or shingles on a roof, the scales on the leaf buds of plants and the cups of some acorns, or the scales of fishes; overlapping each other at the margins, as leaves in aestivation.
(a.) In decorative art: Having scales lapping one over the other, or a representation of such scales; as, an imbricated surface; an imbricated pattern.
