| dislocation | <orthopaedics> The displacement of any part, more especially of a bone. Synonym: luxation. Origin: L. Locare = to place (18 Nov 1997) |
|---|---|
| dislocation fracture | A fracture of a bone near an articulation with its concomitant dislocation from that joint. (05 Mar 2000) |
| dislocation of articular processes | Complete dislocation of one or both articular processes, usually with overriding of the inferior articular process of the vertebra above into a position anterior to the superior articular process of the vertebra below. Synonym: locked facets. (05 Mar 2000) |
| dislocation of lens | Congenital displacement of the lens resulting from defective zonule formation. (12 Dec 1998) |
| open dislocation | A dislocation complicated by a wound opening from the surface down to the affected joint. Synonym: compound dislocation. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Kienbock's dislocation | Dislocation of semilunar bone. (05 Mar 2000) |
| knee cap dislocation | <orthopaedics> A dislocation of the knee cap most often occurs with the knee cap moving laterally (toward the outer aspect of the leg). Features include a partially flexed knee joint with obvious displacement of the knee cap laterally. Reduction is accomplished with knee joint extension and gently coaxing the knee cap back to the midline. (17 Dec 1997) |
| fracture dislocation | Dislocation associated with or accompanied by a fracture. (05 Mar 2000) |
| lisfranc fracture-dislocation | <radiology> Tarsal-metatarsal fracture-dislocation, trauma, diabetes (neuropathic) (12 Dec 1998) |
| lunate dislocation | A wrist joint injury characterised by dislocation of the lunate. (27 Sep 1997) |
| mastectomy, simple | Removal of only the breast tissue and nipple and a small portion of the overlying skin. (12 Dec 1998) |
| microscope, simple | <microscopy> A microscope that has a single converging lens (or a combination of lenses that function optically as a single converging lens). Anton van leeuwenhoek (1632-1723) made good use of the simple microscope to look at the life within a drop of water, and such. The magnifying properties of lenses had been well known in ancient times (for example to the greeks and romans) but it was not until about 1600 that it became possible to make small lenses with the precision needed to make a microscope. (12 Dec 1998) |
| simple | Undivided, of a leaf, not divided into leaflets, of a hair or an inflorescence, not branched. (09 Oct 1997) |
| simple absence | A brief clouding of consciousness accompanied by the abrupt onset of 3/sec spikes and waves on EEG. Synonym: pure absence. (05 Mar 2000) |
| simple anchorage | Anchorage in which the resistance to the movement of one or more teeth comes solely from resistance to tipping movement of the anchorage unit. (05 Mar 2000) |
