Transverse incision is also known as a horizontal or crosswise incision. It is made across the fibers of a muscle or tissue, typically in a direction parallel to the ground.
A longitudinal incision is typically made in the small intestine to remove an obstruction, allowing access to the blocked area for removal and subsequent repair of the intestine. This procedure is known as an enterotomy.
A tracheostomy is the emergency procedure in which an incision is made into the trachea to bypass an airway obstruction and allow air to enter the lungs. This procedure can be life-saving in situations where a patient is unable to breathe normally.
Both are forms of mechanical waves but moves or travels differently. Transverse travels perpendicular to it waves while longitudinal are made up of compressions and rarefactions, so no their not interchangeable.
An incision of the large intestine, often referred to as a colotomy, is a surgical procedure where a cut is made in the wall of the colon. This procedure may be performed to remove a blockage, sample tissue for biopsy, or facilitate access during other abdominal surgeries. Colotomies can be done as part of more extensive surgeries, such as colectomies, or as standalone procedures. After the incision, the tissue is typically sutured closed or managed with a stoma, depending on the underlying condition being treated.

Mcburney's incision is no longer been used for Appendectomy. For cosmetic reason a transverse bikini line incision is now used for appendectomy
A low transverse incision refers to a surgical cut made horizontally across the lower part of the abdomen, typically performed during procedures such as a cesarean section. This type of incision is preferred due to reduced risk of complications and better healing compared to other types of incisions.
the neurosurgeon makes an incision in the skin and muscle of the temporal region of the head located on the side of the head above the ear, and pulls away the flap of scalp
Yes, the rectus abdominis muscle may have been cut during the surgery to access Mr. Geiger's appendix, as the incision was made in the right iliac abdominopelvic region where this muscle is located. However, the muscle is typically cut and then repaired during the procedure.
An Auvray incision is a surgical technique used primarily in the context of thyroid surgery. It involves a transverse incision made in the anterior neck, typically along the skin folds, to minimize scarring and improve cosmetic outcomes. This approach allows for better access to the thyroid gland while aiming to reduce trauma to surrounding tissues. The Auvray incision is particularly noted for its aesthetic advantages compared to traditional vertical incisions.
The surgeon made an incision in the patient's abdomen.
The abdominopelvic region can be divided into four quadrants using the transverse and vertical planes intersecting at the umbilicus, and into nine regions using two transverse and two vertical planes intersecting at the midclavicular lines.
This may hurt a bit; I'm going to make a small incision in the back of your hand.
