(17) The ventral arc is a ridge of bone which may occur on the ventral surface of the corpus of the os pubis in adult females.
(18) The separations were associated with considerable pain, swelling, and tenderness over the symphysis pubis and were confirmed roentgenographically.
(19) It is clear that osteitis pubis in athletes is not uncommon and that factors such as loss of rotation of hips and previous obstetric history are important in the aetiology and management of this condition.
(20) Throat, urine, and skin surfaces from scalp, ears, chest, face, axillary, submammary, umbilical, upper back, inguinal crease, gluteal-fold, perirectal, vaginal, pubis, penis, scrotal, leg, hands, feet, finger, and toenail areas were cultured for aerobic bacteria, yeast, and dermatophytes.
Subpubic
Definition:
(a.) Situated under, or posterior to, the pubic bones.
Example Sentences:
(1) A technique for blocking the dorsal nerves of the penis was designed after reevaluation of the gross anatomy of the subpubic space and penis in children.
(2) The formation of the feminine type of the subpubic angle takes a longer period of time than the masculine type.
(3) Semen values were normal despite a subpubic location of the testes.
(4) The following parameters were examined: the anterior angle, the urethro-pelvic angle, the vagino-pelvic angle, the ano-rectal angle, the pubo-vesical distance and the position of the vesical neck with respect to the subpubic margin, in three different pictures recorded at rest, during voluntary contraction of the pelvic floor and in the contrary condition of increase in abdominal pressure.
(5) It is concluded that the subpubic approach to the dorsal nerves of the penis is easy, safe, and reliable, and that 0.5% plain bupivacaine provides long-lasting postoperative pain relief.
(6) In general, the subpubic concavity feature, when used alone, proved to be the most reliable variable for sex identification.
(7) In the median technique, only one injection is performed in the subpubic space, near the posterior inferior aspect of the symphysis.
(8) The operation consisted in application of a transpubic access and replacement of the extended posterior urethral defect with perineal ones by removing the subpubic curvature and transposing the perineal portion of the urethra ahead of the cavernous bodies of the penis, which allowed the urethra to be relatively stretched.
(9) The roentgenoanatomical investigation, performed according to archival roentgenograms of the urinary tracts in 57 boys and 294 girls at the age of 2-16 years, characterizes the value of the subpubic angle and age dynamics of its form and size.
(10) The dimensions of the pelvis that are most dimorphic (that is, female larger than male) are the measures of posterior space, angulation of sacrum, biischial breadth, and subpubic angle.
(11) The form and size of the subpubic angle in the children of the given age varies within large range--acute, right, obtuse; sex differentiation is clearly followed in the group of 11-16 years of age, when in the boys there are three forms of the angles--right (most often occurring), then obtuse and acute (seldom occurring), while in the girls of this age group there are only two forms--obtuse and right with definite predominance frequency of the obtuse angle.
