(1) In less than 15 years old children 33 post-traumatic retinal detachments were operated during these last four years (postocular wound retinal detachment with or without intraocular foreign body, post contusion retinal detachment).
(2) The post-contusion retinal detachment surgery good results are quite opposite to the bad results of the postocular injury retinal detachment with intraocular foreign body and secondary proliferative vitreoretinopathy.
Postorbital
Definition:
(a.) Situated behind the orbit; as, the postorbital scales of some fishes and reptiles.
(n.) A postorbital bone or scale.
Example Sentences:
(1) Mediolateral postorbital bar width and (to a lesser degree) browridge height are correlated with neurofacial torsion during mastication and variation in masticatory muscle size.
(2) The known Cretaceous and Paleocene primates, the Paromomyiformes, although lacking a fully developed postorbital bar, are nevertheless, both cladistically and phenetically, closest to the common ancestor of the living primates.
(3) From the above "Bauplan" of the neurocranium, the following conclusions can be drawn: (1) the simple homology of the reptilian and placental mammalian pila metoptica is questionable; (2) the pila antotica is produced by the absorption of the mid-dorsal part of the postorbital cartilage, while the dorsum sellae in mammals is produce by the chondrification of the middle part of the same anlage; (3) homology of the ala hypochiasmatica in mammals with the supratrabecular cartilage in reptiles is more feasible than with the cartilago hypochiasmatica; and (4) the crista sellaris in reptiles is not a part of the primary cranial wall but probably of secondary production.
(4) The postorbital plate of Tarsius is formed by frontal and alisphenoid flanges that extend laterally from the braincase to the zygomatic's frontal process, which is not broader than the postorbital bars of other prosimians.
(5) In pigs the zygomatico-squamosal suture has a short vertical segment located within the postorbital process and a longer horizontal segment which extends posteriorly.
(6) The postorbital technique is a new surgical approach to the middle cerebral artery that leaves the intraorbital structures intact.
(7) After resection of the postorbital processes and gentle retraction of the eye, the optic foramen is approached with the help of an operating microscope.
(8) It is postulated that the flexibility of the rostrum acts to absorb shock and it is suggested that the primate postorbital bar is developed in response to craniofacial morphology which increases compressive bite forces.
(9) The anterior lateral line is composed of a series of cranial canals; the supraorbital-postorbital canal; the suborbital canal; and the preopercular-mandibular canal which extends along the lower jaw.
(10) Dimensions of the supraorbital torus, postorbital bar, and postorbital septum were collected in an ontogenetic series of Macaca fascicularis and compared with expectations based on models that attribute morphological variation in these features to spatial factors, allometry, anterior dental loading, and neurofacial torsion.
(11) Three cranial characters shared by Tarsius and some modern anthropoideans (apical interorbital septum, postorbital septum, "perbullar" carotid pathway) were examined.
(12) This skull shows four characteristics of higher primates: a catarrhine dental formula, an ectotympanic at the rim of the auditory bulla, a fused frontal bone, and postorbital closure.
(13) For example, the lateral border of the orbit was a complex formed by the lacrimal, suborbital, postorbital and parietal.
(14) The mean width of the cranial vault at the postorbital constriction increased by 10% between the age of 30 and 58 days.
(15) 2) In Aegyptopithecus and other anthropoideans, the postorbital septum is formed mainly by a periorbital flange of the zygomatic that extends medially from the lateral orbital margin onto or near the braincase.
