| ort-a-cath | A device surgically implanted under the skin, usually on the chest, that enters a large blood vessel and is used to deliver medication, chemotherapy, blood products and also is used to obtain blood samples. A port is usually inserted if a person has veins in the arm which are difficult to use for treatment or if certain types of chemotherapy drugs are to be given. (09 Oct 1997) |

| silicone | Any of many polymers made up of alternating oxygen and silicon atomscombined with other organic groups. Silicone can be an oil, grease, gelor plastic, but all forms are resistant to heat, water and will notconduct electricity. It is used for a huge number of uses in industry (lubricants, paints, adhesives, coolants, etc.) Silicone is used inmedicine to replace body parts, and its use in breast implants has comeunder fire because there is evidence that these appliances may leak, andfurther evidence that leaked silicone may cause autoimmune disorders. (09 Oct 1997) |
| silicone elastomers | Polymers of silicone having properties similar to those of vulcanised natural rubber, namely the ability to be stretched to at least twice their original length and to retract very rapidly to approximately their original length when released. (12 Dec 1998) |
| silicone implant | Implant composed of silicone; common form of breast implant for augmentation. (05 Mar 2000) |
| silicone oils | Organic siloxanes which are polymerised to the oily stage. The oils have low surface tension and density less than 1. They are used in industrial applications and in the treatment of retinal detachment, complicated by proliferative vitreoretinopathy. (12 Dec 1998) |
| Foley catheter | <equipment> Flexible plastic tube inserted into the bladder to provide continuous urinary drainage. (12 Nov 1997) |
| Foley, Frederic | <person> U.S. Urologist, 1891-1966. See: Foley catheter, Foley operation, Foley Y-plasty pyeloplasty. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Foley operation | A reconstructive procedure for correction of ureteropelvic obstruction, whereby a Y-shaped flap of renal pelvis is advanced downward into a vertical incision in the upper ureter, thereby widening the ureteropelvic junction. Synonym: Foley operation. (05 Mar 2000) |
