incised

Examples of incised in the following topics:

• Torn Cartilage and Arthroscopy

  • Arthroscopy is a minimally-invasive surgical procedure used in treating damage to the interior of a joint using a small incision and scope.
  • A small incision was made to insert a tiny camera that allowed the surgeon to repair the complex ligament attachments of the ankle bones.
  • Arthroscopy (also called arthroscopic surgery) is a minimally-invasive surgical procedure in which an examination, and sometimes treatment of damage to the interior of a joint, is performed using an arthroscope, a type of endoscope that is inserted into the joint through a small incision.
  • In knee arthroscopy, for example, only two small incisions are made: one for the arthroscope, permitting observation of the procedure and one for the surgical instruments to be used in the knee cavity.
  • There is also less scarring because of the smaller incisions.

• Dystocia and Cesarean Section

  • The type of incision used is dependent upon a number of factors and will be either longitudinal or latitudinal.
  • The incision on the skin may be different from the one used internally.
  • There are two main types of incisions used.
  • The classical incision involves a midline longitudinal cut in the uterus, which allows a larger space to deliver the baby.
  • It is often referred to as the bikini cut, as the skin incision is typically below the bikini line just above the pubic hair.

• Tracheotomy and Intubation

  • Tracheotomy consists of making an incision on the anterior aspect of the neck and opening a direct airway via an incision in the trachea.
  • Among the oldest described surgical procedures, tracheotomy (also referred to as pharyngotomy, laryngotomy, and tracheostomy) consists of making an incision on the anterior aspect of the neck and opening a direct airway through an incision in the trachea as shown in .

• Rhinoplasty

  • In the surgeries — closed rhinoplasty and open rhinoplasty — an otolaryngologist (ear, nose, and throat specialist), a maxillofacial surgeon (jaw, face, and neck specialist), or a plastic surgeon, creates a functional, aesthetic, and facially proportionate nose by separating the nasal skin and the soft tissues from the osseo-cartilaginous nasal framework, correcting them as required for form and function, suturing the incisions, and applying either a package, a stent or both, to immobilize the corrected nose to ensure the proper healing of the surgical incision.
  • In open rhinoplasty, the surgeon makes a small, irregular incision to the columella, the fleshy, exterior-end of the nasal septum; this columellar incision is additional to the usual set of incisions for a nasal correction.
  • In closed rhinoplasty, the surgeon performs every procedural incision endonasally (exclusively within the nose) and does not cut the columella.
  • Except for the columellar incision, the technical and procedural approaches of open rhinoplasty and of closed rhinoplasty are similar, yet the closed rhinoplasty procedure features reduced dissection (cutting) of the nasal tissues (no columellar incision), decreased potential for the excessive reduction (cutting) of the nasal-tip support, reduced post-operative edema, decreased visible scarring, decreased iatrogenic (inadvertent) damage to the nose by the surgeon, increased availability for effecting in situ procedural and technical changes, palpation that allows the surgeon to feel the interior changes effected to the nose, shorter operating room time and quicker post-surgical recovery and convalescence for the patient.
  • Generally, the plastic surgeon first separates the nasal skin and the soft tissues from the osseo-cartilagenous nasal framework, and then corrects (reshapes) them as required, afterwards, sutures the incisions, and then applies either an external or an internal stent, and tape, to immobilize the newly reconstructed nose to facilitate the healing of the surgical cuts.

• Episiotomy

  • An episiotomy, also known as perineotomy, is a surgically planned incision on the perineum and the posterior vaginal wall during second stage of labor.
  • The incision, which can be midline or at an angle from the posterior end of the vulva, is performed under local anesthetic (pudendal anesthesia), and is sutured closed after delivery.
  • In one variation, the midline episiotomy, the line of incision is central over the anus.
  • 1)The midline episiotomy, the line of incision is central over the anus.

• Oxytocin and Childbirth

  • At this point, if necessary, the birth attendant may perform an episiotomy, which is a small surgical incision in the peritoneum.
  • Cesarean section, or C-section, is the delivery of a baby through a surgical abdominal incision (Abdominal delivery - Abdominal birth - Cesarean section).
  • An incision is made across the abdomen just above the pubic area.
  • The uterus is opened, and often brought through the incision after delivery for better visualization.

• Etruscan Ceramics

  • Artists incised the vessels with geometric designs, as well as stylized images of humans and animals.
  • Bucchero was often simply decorated with incised lines that formed geometric and abstract patterns.
  • Some patterns were incised with a stylus and others with a toothed wheel or comb-like instruments to create consistent rows of dots or patterns of dots in the shape of fans.
  • In pseudo-red-figure painting, internal details were marked by incision, similar to the usual practice in black-figure vase painting, rather than painted on, as in true red-figure.

• Aquatint

  • Intaglio printmaking is a family of printing techniques in which an image is incised into the surface of a metal plate; the incised line holds the ink, while the original surface of the plate is wiped clean.

• Paleolithic Artifacts

  • The object is a red tufic pebble, about 1.4 inches long, which has at least three grooves, possibly incised with a sharp-edged stone tool.
  • One bone fragment, an elephant tibia, has two groups of incised parallel lines which some have interpreted as an early example of art making.
  • The regular spacing of the incisions, their subequal lengths, and V-like cross-sections suggest that they were created at the same time, with a single stone, however no conclusive agreement has been made.

• Drypoint

  • Drypoint is a printmaking technique in the intaglio family, a category in which an image is etched into a plate, and the incised line holds the ink that will be transferred to the final print.
  • The lines produced in the final print are formed not only by the carved lines, but also by the burrs, or raised edges of the incised lines.
  • This technique is different from engraving, in which the incisions are made by removing metal to form depressions in the plate surface which hold ink.
