Hi bobbym,

419. Name the medical term : Of the two, the superior triangle is the more consistently found in cadavers, and is more commonly the site of herniation; however, the inferior is often simply called by its name, perhaps owing to its more superficial location and ease in demonstration.

Hi bobbym,

#425. Name the medical term : It is defined as elevation of hepatic venous pressure gradient to >5mmHg. Generally, in clinical practice the pressure is not measured directly until the decision to place a transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS) has already been made. As part of that procedure, a hepatic vein wedge pressure is measured with the assumption of no pressure drop across the liver yielding portal vein pressure.

#426. Name the medial term : Local anesthetic of the amino amide type first prepared by Claes Tegner and Nils Löfgren. In its injectable form (trade name Citanest), it is often used in dentistry. It is also often combined with lidocaine as a preparation for dermal anesthesia (lidocaine/prilocaine or EMLA (Eutectic Mixture of Local Anesthetics)), for treatment of conditions like paresthesia. As it has low cardiac toxicity, it is commonly used for intravenous regional anaesthesia (IVRA).

#427. Name the medical term : A congenital condition of facial abnormalities in humans. PRS is a sequence, i.e. a chain of certain developmental malformations, one entailing the next. The 3 main features are cleft palate, retrognathia (abnormal positioning of the jaw or maxilla) and glossoptosis (airway obstruction caused by backwards displacement of the tongue base). A genetic cause to PRS was recently identified. The sequence may be caused by genetic anomalies at chromosomes 2, 11, or 17.

Re: Doc, Doc!

Hi bobbym,

#431. Name the medical term :  The medical procedure to obtain safe access to blood vessels and other hollow organsThe desired vessel or cavity is punctured with a sharp hollow needle called a trocar, with ultrasound guidance if necessary. A round-tipped guidewire is then advanced through the lumen of the trocar, and the trocar is withdrawn. A "sheath" or blunt cannula can now be passed over the guidewire into the cavity or vessel. Alternatively, drainage tubes are passed over the guidewire (as in chest drains or nephrostomies). After passing a sheath or tube, the guidewire is withdrawn.
