Circumcision always requires an incision as it is a surgical removal of part of the skin of the penis. The type of incision used depends on the surgical technique being used.
Mcburney's incision is no longer been used for Appendectomy. For cosmetic reason a transverse bikini line incision is now used for appendectomy
This is called a pfannensteil incision usually used for gynaecological operations
Midline incision with a #10 blade mounted on a #3 knife handle.
Typically a Y incision is used. This is where an incision starting at each shoulder goes diagonally to the sternum and down to the abdomen. It's so named since the incision appears as a Y on the body, enabling a better view of all thoracic and abdominal contents.
No, an oblique incision is not the same as a transverse incision. An oblique incision is made at an angle to the body's axis, typically used to facilitate access to certain anatomical structures. In contrast, a transverse incision runs horizontally across the body, parallel to the ground. Each type of incision serves different surgical purposes and is chosen based on the specific requirements of the procedure.
The what? There is no surgical technique with that name.
Disregarding laparoscopic entry here... Obviously, the incision depends on what surgery will follow ^_^ For appendectomy for example, the most used incision will be the McBurney one, cutting in the right fossa over the McBurney point, going from superolateral to inferomedial, about 3-4 cm. There are some general incisions, such as the paramedian (a bit more to the left/right from the middle, vertically) and median (right in the middle, vertically) incision. When there is an emergency (acute abdomen), the most used incision will be a full laparotomy, which is a median vertical incision, from the proc xyphoideus (bottom of sternum) to the pubis. The caesarian incision is one of the few horizontal ones, right above the pubis. For kidney transplants, a curved incision is used, paramedian.
The site of incision for abdominal surgery typically depends on the procedure being performed. Common incision types include the midline incision, which runs vertically down the center of the abdomen, and the transverse incision, which is horizontal and often used for cesarean sections. Other variations, like the paramedian or oblique incisions, may be used based on the specific organs being accessed. Each incision type is chosen to optimize access while minimizing recovery time and complications.
The medical term for a surgical incision into a breast is "mastectomy" when referring to the removal of breast tissue, but if specifically focusing on incision without removal, the term "breast incision" or "incision of the breast" may be used. The term "incisional biopsy" is also applicable when the incision is made to obtain tissue for examination. These terms can vary based on the context and purpose of the procedure.
