What's the difference between intersesamoid and sesamoid?
Intersesamoid
Definition:
(a.) Between sesamoid bones; as, intersesamoid ligaments.
Example Sentences:
(1) It was treated surgically by open reduction and ligamentoplasty of the ruptured intersesamoid ligament.
(2) The intersesamoid ligament is of particular interest, since its functions are diverse and complex.
(3) It is transferred to the medial sesamoid through the tibial sesamoid ligament and then to the fibular sesamoid by the intersesamoidal ligament.
(4) The intersesamoidal ridge was found to be parallel to the lateral shaft.
(5) The undulating plantar aspect of the MTP head formed by the intersesamoidal ridge and related grooves was found to have symmetric relationships to the sesamoid bones and a consistent orientation to the shaft.
Sesamoid
Definition:
(a.) Resembling in shape the seeds of sesame.
(a.) Of or pertaining to the sesamoid bones or cartilages; sesamoidal.
(n.) A sesamoid bone or cartilage.
Example Sentences:
(1) Axial sesamoid injury appeared to be an indication of severe fetlock trauma due to condylar fracture.
(2) Operative treatment was used 22 times (5 sesamoid fractures, 5 midtibial fractures, 5 metatarsal V base fractures, 3 tarsal navicular fractures, 3 olecranon fractures, and 1 proximal tibial shaft fracture).
(3) That is, the first metatarsal head moves within a stable support comprised of the base of the proximal phalanx, the sesamoids, soft tissue, and muscle tendons.
(4) One-hundred patients with anterior foot pain were examined by tangential sesamoid x-rays and some by bone scan.
(5) We favor the opinion that idiopathic aseptic necrosis of the sesamoid one of the big toe in adults is seldom a primary condition and that other predisposing factors should be taken into consideration.
(6) The sesamoid region has a rich pathology, that is often poorly understood since it is inadequately investigated.
(7) Objective measurement showed that the range of movement of the metatarsophalangeal joint was better maintained after osteotomy, as was the relationship of the sesamoid bones to the head of the first metatarsal.
(8) Subcutaneous rupture of the peroneus longus tendon occurring through a fracture of the os peroneum sesamoid in the foot, confirmed at surgery, is a rare injury, possibly with only one previously reported case.
(9) The other complications included recurrence of the hallux valgus in two feet, pain under a fibular sesamoid in one foot, and a tailor's bunion that was unrelated to the operation in one foot.
(10) The most significantly retarded sites were the late-forming ossifications (epiphyses, sesamoids, and tuberosites).
(11) The source of a previously described radiolucent crescent in the flexor cortex of the distal sesamoid (navicular) bone on the palmaro45 degrees proximal-palmarodistal oblique (Pa45 degrees Pr-PaDio) clinical radiographic projection was investigated in 48 forelimb navicular bones from 24 Thoroughbreds by use of high-detail radiography and x-ray computed tomography (CT).
(12) The anatomy, function, and disorders of the hallucal sesamoids show that the diagnosis and current concept of management are based on the individual patient's problems.
(13) Our study points to the role of the flexor and extensor carpi ulnaris muscles in the stability of the internal carpus, confirming that the pisiform is a sesamoid bone in the flexor carpi ulnaris tendon.
(14) The origin and course of the collateral sesamoidean (suspensory navicular) ligament of the horse and ass and its attachment to the distal sesamoid bone were studied by means of dissection.
(15) Presented is information concerning the internal and external structural components of a bipartite metatarsal sesamoidal joint, which may inherently lead it to symptomatology.
(16) Congenital absence of the tibial sesamoid is a rare condition that has been infrequently reported in the podiatric literature.
(17) The articular interface between the radial sesamoid and the radial condyle of the metacarpal head, which is the radial subsesamoid joint, is the most frequently involved area of abnormality in the metacarpophalangeal joint complex.
(18) The authors also review the literature on pseudomonas osteomyelitis secondary to puncture wounds and the development of hallux hammer toe after removal of the involved sesamoid bones.
(19) The sesamoids generally appear as small ovoid bones adjacent to articulations or at sites where tendons are angled about osseous surfaces.
(20) Some morphological characteristics could apparently be related to specific modes of locomotion, namely the shape, more or less oblong, pear-like or round, according to genera or digits, and the possible fusion of the 2 sesamoid bones of the same digit to form a unique ossified structure.
