| slipped capital femoral epiphysis | <orthopaedics> This refers to chronic fracture of the epiphyseal growth plate known as a slipped capital femoral epiphysis. The capital (head of the femur) should sit squarely on the femoral neck. Abnormal movement along the growth plate results in the slip. Often this condition will present in prepubescent males with an insidious onset of thigh or knee pain with a painful limp. Hip motion will be limited, particularly internal rotation. Consultation with an orthopaedic surgeon is necessary to repair this problem. Untreated cases can result in serious growth abnormalities and permanent disability. (27 Sep 1997) |
| stippled epiphysis | A developmental error of the epiphyses characterised by severe deformities, epiphyses ossified from several discrete centres and with a stippled appearance, and thickened shafts of the long bones; congenital cataract and mental retardation are often present. There is an autosomal dominant form and an autosomal recessive form. Synonym: chondrodysplasia punctata, chondrodystrophia calcificans congenita, hypoplastic foetal chondrodystrophy, stippled epiphysis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| epiphysis | A part of a long bone where growth bone growth occurs from. (27 Sep 1997) |
| epiphysis cerebri | A small conical midline body attached to the posterior part of the third ventricle and lying between the superior colliculi, below the splenium of the corpus callosum. (12 Dec 1998) |
| axis traction | Rarely used procedure to apply traction upon the foetal head in the line of the birth canal by means of axis traction forceps. (05 Mar 2000) |
| axis-traction forceps | Obstetrical forceps provided with a second handle so attached that traction can be made in the line in which the head must move in the axis of the pelvis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Bryant's traction | Traction upon the lower limb placed vertically, employed especially in fractures of the femur in children. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Buck's traction | Apparatus for applying longitudinal skin traction on the leg through contact between the skin and adhesive tape; friction between the tape and skin permits application of force, which is applied through a cord over a pulley, suspending a weight; elevation of the foot of the bed allows the body to act as a counterweight. Synonym: Buck's traction. (05 Mar 2000) |
| maxillomandibular traction | <dentistry> A pulling force developed by using elastic or wire ligatures and interdental wiring or splints, or both. Synonym: intermaxillary traction. (05 Mar 2000) |
| visceral traction reflex | Laryngeal spasm precipitated during an operation by traction on the stomach, gallbladder, or appendiceal mesentery. (05 Mar 2000) |
| vitreoretinal traction syndrome | <syndrome> Traction on the internal limiting membrane of the retina by adherent vitreous fibrils in vitreous humor detachment. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Russell traction | An improvement of Buck's extension that permits the resultant vector of the applied traction force to be changed, for fractures of the femur. (05 Mar 2000) |
| halo traction | Application of skeletal traction to the head by means of a halo device. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Sayre's suspension traction | Spinal traction obtained by vertical suspension of the patient by means of a head halter. (05 Mar 2000) |
