serrated suture
subcuticular suture
| Czerny-Lembert suture | An intestinal suture in two rows combining the Czerny suture (first) and the Lembert suture (second). (05 Mar 2000) |
|---|---|
| Czerny's suture | The first row of the Czerny-Lembert intestinal suture; the needle enters the serosa and passes out through the submucosa or muscularis, and then enters the submucosa or muscularis of the opposite side and emerges from the serosa. (05 Mar 2000) |
| sagittal suture | Line of union between the two parietal bones. Synonym: sutura sagittalis, interparietal suture, sutura interparietalis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| secondary suture | Delayed closure of a wound. (05 Mar 2000) |
| purse-string suture | A continuous suture placed in a circular manner either for inversion (as for an appendiceal stump) or closure (as for a hernia). (05 Mar 2000) |
| serrate suture | One whose opposing margins present deep sawlike indentations, as most of the sagittal suture. Synonym: sutura serrata, dentate suture. (05 Mar 2000) |
| shotted suture | A suture in which the ends are fastened by passing through a split shot (a partially divided lead pellet) which is then compressed. (05 Mar 2000) |
| sphenoethmoidal suture | Line of union between the crest of the sphenoid bone and the perpendicular and cribriform plates of the ethmoid. Synonym: sutura sphenoethmoidalis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| sphenofrontal suture | Line of union between the orbital plate of the frontal and the lesser wings of the sphenoid on either side. Synonym: sutura sphenofrontalis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| sphenomaxillary suture | An inconstant suture between the pterygoid process of the sphenoid bone and the body of the maxilla. Synonym: sutura sphenomaxillaris. (05 Mar 2000) |
| spheno-occipital suture | Cartilaginous union between the body of the sphenoid and the basilar portion of the occipital; it fuses by the twentieth year; incorrectly called spheno-occipital suture. Synonym: synchondrosis spheno-occipitalis, spheno-occipital joint, spheno-occipital suture. (05 Mar 2000) |
| spheno-orbital suture | Articulation between the orbital process of the palatine bone and the outer surface of the body of the sphenoid. Synonym: sutura spheno-orbitalis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| sphenoparietal suture | Line of union of the lower border of the parietal with the upper edge of the greater wing of the sphenoid. Synonym: sutura sphenoparietalis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| sphenosquamous suture | Articulation of the greater wing of the sphenoid with the squamous portion of the temporal bone. Synonym: sutura sphenosquamosa. (05 Mar 2000) |
| sphenovomerine suture | The line of union of the vaginal process of the sphenoid with the wing of the vomer. Synonym: sutura sphenovomeriana. (05 Mar 2000) |
