an end-to-end union or joining together of blood vessels, lymphatics or nerves
a junction between two adjacent structures, e.g., blood vessels, nerves.
(pl. anastomoses) - the connection of separate parts of a branching system to form a network, as of blood vessels; also the surgical connection of separate or severed tubular hollow organs to form a continuous channel, as the severed urethra in radical prostatectomy.
The joining of two or more cell processes to form a branching system.
connection between two tubes. Term used with peripheral blood vessels without capillary bed.
n. (Gr. ana, up to; stoma, mouth) connecting by cross-veins and forming a network.
The joining of a blood vessel or body part to another.
The joining together of two ends of healthy bowel after diseased bowel has been cut out (resected) by the surgeon.
surgically sewing two structures together, whether it is two ends of the bowel, which is bowel anastomosis, or reimplanting and sewing the ureter to the bladder, which is a ureteroneocystostomy anastomosis. This term simply means sewing two structures together.
Surgical reattachment of the two ends of the colon, known also as the bowel, after a portion of the colon is removed by the surgeon.
a natural or surgical joining of parts or branches of tubular structures so as to make or become continuous
an connection between two structures, organs or spaces
Surgical connection between the stomach and the small intestine.
The surgical or pathological connection of two tubular structures.
A joining or rejoining of two vessels that were separated surgically or traumatically.
A surgical joining of two body structures (e.g. blood vessels or intestines), which allows flow from one to another.
a union of one structure to another, usually joining one part of end of the bowel to another
The joining together of tubular structures to form one continuous structure
surgical union between two tubular structures, e.g., ends of healthy intestine
a surgical connection between two previously separated organs (in abdominal surgery the connection is usually between two ends of the small intestine).
A junction between two vessels, or other tubular anatomical structures.
The connection formed when sewing together two pieces of stomach and/or intestine. In a gastric bypass there are two anastamoses. The first is the connection between the new stomach pouch and the small intestine, called a "gastro-jejunostomy", and the second is the connection between the small intestine coming from the bypassed stomach and the small intestine coming from the new stomach pouch, called a "jejuno-jejunostomy." Another term for anastamosis is "Stoma."
A natural communication between two blood vessels
Where the bowel is rejoined after a section has been removed during surgery.
The joining of two structures within the body after surgery. Common examples are colonic anastomosis in which the surgeon joins two portions of the colon together.
operation to connect two body parts. An example is an operation in which a part of the colon is removed and the two remaining ends are rejoined.
A connection between two tubular anatomic structures (e.g., coronary vessels and intestinal structures).
A communication, direct or indirect: A joining together. In the nervous system a jointing of nerves or blood vessels.
Greek ana = of each, and stoma = mouth, hence the end-to-end continuity of 2 vessels; adjective - anastomotic.
a surgical connection, often between two blood vessels.
The direct or indirect joining of separate parts, such as blood vessels.
the surgical joining of two ends of healthy bowel.
surgical connection of tubular bodily structures (bowel, blood vessels), restoring or preserving it function
A coalescence, or interconnecting network, of blood vessels
A connection between a graft and a natural blood vessel, or between two blood vessels
An operation that connects two body parts. For example- removing a part of the intestine during operation and rejoining the two remaining ends.
1. A connection between vessels 2. An opening created by surgical, traumatic or pathological means between two normally separate spaces or organs
Surgical connection between two structures
connection of two vessels or conduits.
A natural communication between two vessels; may be direct or by means of connecting channels. The surgical or pathological connections of two tubular structures.
a communication between two vessels or ducts without any intervening capillary network
Surgical connection of two vessels into a continuous channel.
The joining of two tubes, usually referring to a connection between two peripheral vessels without an intervening capillary bed.
joining together of the parts of one or more hollow organs.
(a-nas-to- mo-sis): the site where 2 structures are surgically joined together.
A natural, pathological (traumatic or disease-produced) or surgical join between two hollow or tubular organs, as in parts of the bowel.
A procedure to connect healthy sections of tubular structures in the body after the diseased portion has been surgically removed.
