A cheesewire suture is removed by a small incision made in the conjunctiva overlying the two ends of the suture. Fine removal suture forceps are used to grasp both ends of the suture. Tangential traction is then used to cheesewire through the scar tissue There are many complications that can arise from the removal of the cheesewire suture.
The squamosal suture, or squamous suture, arches backward from the pterion and connects the temporal squama with the lower border of the parietal bone: this suture is continuous behind with the short, nearly horizontal parietomastoid suture, which unites the mastoid process of the temporal with the region of the mastoid angle of the parietal bone. The term parietotemporal suture may refer to both of these sutures or exclusively to the parietomastoid suture and its use is, therefore, best avoided.
The sagittal suture is a dense, fibrous connective tissue joint between the two parietal bones of the skull. The term is derived from the Latin word sagitta, meaning arrow. The derivation of this term may be demonstrated by observing how the sagittal suture is notched posteriorly, like an arrow, by the lambdoid suture. The sagittal suture is also known as the interparietal suture, the sutura interparietalis.
Reconstruction showing the collision of three paleocontinents during Caledonian orogeny approximately 390 million years ago. The red line shows where the Iapetus Suture extends through present-day Ireland and Great Britain. A related suture through Denmark, Poland and Ukraine is the Trans- European Suture Zone. The Iapetus Suture is one of several major geological faults caused by the collision of several ancient land masses forming a suture.

In forensic anthropology, the sagittal suture is one method used to date human remains. The suture begins to close at age twenty-nine, starting at where it intersects at the lambdoid suture and working forward. By age thirty-five, the suture is completely closed. This means that when inspecting a human skull, if the suture is still open, one can assume an age of less than twenty-nine.
Coronal suture where the squamous part of the frontal bone begins. The external surface is convex and usually exhibits, in the lower part of the middle line, the remains of the frontal suture; in infancy this suture divides the frontal bone into two and later fuses. A condition where fusion has not taken place, may persist throughout life and is referred to as a metopic suture. On either side of this suture, about 3 cm.
The bregma is the anatomical point on the skull at which the coronal suture is intersected perpendicularly by the sagittal suture.

When used in paleontology, suture can also refer to fossil exoskeletons, as in the suture line, a division on a trilobite between the free cheek and the fixed cheek; this suture line allowed the trilobite to perform ecdysis (the shedding of its skin).
The techniques consist of passing closed sutures, by needle perforations only, to lift movable fascias and fix them to non movable skeletal structures in several facial and body areas: In face areas: total ambulatory SMAS Lift, temporal and supra-temporal suture SMAS lift, scarless brow suture lift, lateral cantus lifting, mid face suture lift, cheekbone lift and augmentation, lower smas-platysma face and neck lift using skin perforations only or by using hidden retro-lobular incisions, chin enhancement, form and position correction by suture, Serdev sutures for: nasal tip refinement; nasal tip rotation; nasal alar base narrowing, scarless Serdev suture method in prominent ears, chin dimples and smiling dimples by suture, permanent block of glabela muscles etc. In body areas: scarless breast lift by suture and needle perforations only, scarless buttock lift by suture, abdominal flaccidity tightening by sutures, scarless inner thigh lift.
The length of the claviform shell attains 12 mm. The smooth protoconch consists of 1½-2 whorls. The teleoconch contains 5 whorls, convex from suture to suture (no concave sulcus). The suture is not distinctly crenulated, as in the other species in this genus.
The lambdoid suture (or lambdoidal suture) is a dense, fibrous connective tissue joint on the posterior aspect of the skull that connects the parietal bones with the occipital bone. It is continuous with the occipitomastoid suture. Its name comes from its uppercase lambda-like shape.
The Sphenoparietal suture is the cranial suture between the sphenoid bone and the parietal bone. It is one of the sutures that comprises the pterion.
The subsequent whorls are axially sculptured with (on the body whorl behind the node) ten sharp, more or less sigmoid, slightly protractive ribs extending from the suture to the siphonal canal, or on the spire from suture to suture, with wider interspaces. The suture is oppressed. In front of it is a very slight constriction corresponding to an anal fasciole, though no actual fasciole is visible. The aperture is moderate.
Another important advantage of this technique is the prevention of suture-related complications such as suture erosion, suture knot exposure, or dislocation of IOL after suture disintegration or broken suture. The other advantages of this technique are the rapidity and ease of surgery. The technique eliminates tying the difficult-to-handle 10-0 Prolene suture to the IOL haptic eyelets, the time required to ensure good centration before tying down the knots, and the time required for suturing scleral flaps and closing the conjunctiva, so the total surgical time is significantly reduced. It is also easier and does not require much surgical expertise to use the 25-gauge forceps to grasp and exteriorize the haptic.
The base of the shell is slightly contracted. The suture is not much impressed. The aperture is high and narrow, angled above, with a very short broad and truncated siphonal canal below. The outer lip is convex, straightened below the suture, with a very shallow broad sinus at the suture.
The sphenopetrosal fissure (or sphenopetrosal suture) is the cranial suture between the sphenoid bone and the petrous portion of the temporal bone. It is in the middle cranial fossa.
Metopism is the condition of having a persistent metopic suture, or persistence of the frontal metopic suture in the adult human skull. The premature fusion of cranial sutures named craniosynostosis, it is “simple” when only one cranial suture is involved and “compound” when two or more cranial sutures are involved. Metopism is the opposite of craniosynostosis. The main factor of the metopic suture is to increase the volume of the anterior cranial fossa.
This suture drag is most often the result of tension being reduced in tying or placing the suture. It is apparent that cheesewiring has occurred if the suture has moved a little closer to the insertion site. A tell tale “Y” shaped scar is evidence that cheesewiring has taken place. Cheesewiring that causes drag can lead to damage to tissue and make a surgeon tug on the material, leading to suture pullout.
Micrograph of a H&E; stained tissue section showing a non-absorbable multi- filament surgical suture with a surrounding foreign-body giant cell reaction Suture thread is made from numerous materials. The original sutures were made from biological materials, such as catgut suture and silk. These absorbed bodily fluids and could be foci of infection. Founder of gynecology J. Marion Sims invented the use of silver wire, which is anti-bacterial, for a suture.
In some individuals, the suture can persist (totally or partly) into adulthood, and is referred to as a persistent metopic suture. The suture can either bisect the frontal bone and run from nasion to bregma or persist as a partial metopic suture (see image of frontal bone) (where part of the suture survives and is connected to either bregma or nasion) or as an isolated metopic fissure. Persistent frontal sutures are of no clinical significance, although they can be mistaken for cranial fractures. As persistent frontal sutures are visible in radiographs, they can be useful for the forensic identification of human skeletal remains.
Suture between ventrites 1 and 2 distinct. Suture between ventrites 2 and 3 is distinct. Ventrite 4 articulated with both 3 or 5 of connate. Postcoxal lines on ventrite 1 absent.
Premature fusion of the suture at the top of the head (sagittal suture) forces the head to grow long and narrow, rather than wide. Scaphocephaly is the most common type of craniosynostosis. The other one is called Coronal synostosis (anterior plagiocephaly). Premature fusion of a coronal suture — one of the structures that run from each ear to the sagittal suture on top of the head — may force the baby's forehead to flatten on the affected side.
In some specimens the entire surface is adorned with microscopic, frosty, beaded spiral threads alternating with still finer granular lines, in other shells the beaded spirals are inconspicuous over the general surface, but become progressively stronger on approaching the suture. The one bordering the suture are the strongest. The whorls contain ten undulating ribs, slightly tuberculate at the carina, extending from suture to suture. The outer lip is thickened in adult, sinus U-shaped and deep.
The shell has about seven (decollate) whorls. The suture is strongly appressed and obscure. The anal fasciole is wide, smooth and concave. The sulcus is wide and shallow, close to the suture.
Amuria then collided with the Siberian Craton, preserving the Mongol-Okhotsk suture zone. Geologists debate why the suture zone ends abruptly near Kazakhstan and have used seismic tomography to develop different interpretations.
A single spiral runs between the angulation and the upper suture, and in the body whorl bounds the front of the posterior sinus. Another lies midway between the angulation and the lower suture. In the suture, the second angulation of the body whorl may appear as a sutural cord. This bounds the back of the posterior labral sinus.
The suture is obscure and strongly appressed. The anal fasciole is slightly constricted. The axial sculpture consists of (on the penultimate whorl nine) strong rounded ribs most prominent at the periphery, extending from suture to suture, with subequal interspaces, obsolete on the last half of the body whorl and on the base. The incremental linesare irregular and obscure.
In trigonocephaly the metopic suture is prematurely fused. The metopic suture is situated in the medial line of the forehead. Premature fusion of this suture causes the forehead to become pointed, giving the head a triangular shape when viewed from above (Greek trigono, "triangle"). The incidence of trigonocephaly is 1 - 1.9 per 10 000 births in the Netherlands.
The artery is closed using suture and a patch to increase the size of the lumen. Hemostasis is achieved, and the overlying layers closed with suture. The skin can be closed with suture which may be visible or invisible (absorbable). Many surgeons place a temporary shunt to ensure blood supply to the brain during the procedure.
The 2nd-century Roman physician Galen described gut sutures. In the 10th century, the catgut suture along with the surgery needle were developed by Abulcasis. The catgut suture was similar to that of strings for violins, guitar, and tennis racquet and it involved harvesting sheep intestines. Joseph Lister endorsed the routine sterilization of all suture threads.
The mid-palatal suture is first cut open into two parts. The center of the midpalatal suture is then inserted into the open slit. Once fully inserted, the mid-palatal suture of the patient is then closed by the surgeon. The orthodontist will then finish the procedure by connecting the palatal expanders band rings to the patients maxillary molars.
This suture is present in most human infants but closes well before adulthood. The presence of a frontal suture in Anzick-1's remains corroborates the age estimation of 1–2 years old.
Although Sirenites is a ceratitid ammonoid, it suture is ammonitic.
The suture zone is marked by the Great Boundary Fault.
The needle is entered 3 mm from the lateral edge of the future bleb site and 3-4 mm away from the limbus. The 8-0 nylon suture is taken under the scleral flap. Once this happens, the suture is reversed and the needle is passed through the conjunctiva from the inside towards the outside position. A singular 10-0 vicryl suture can secure the scleral flap and then the cheesewire suture can then be cut flush to the conjunctiva.
Sewing wound after herniotomy, 1559 Old refillable surgical thread supplier (middle of 20th century) Through many millennia, various suture materials were used or proposed. Needles were made of bone or metals such as silver, copper, and aluminium bronze wire. Sutures were made of plant materials (flax, hemp and cotton) or animal material (hair, tendons, arteries, muscle strips and nerves, silk, and catgut). The earliest reports of surgical suture date to 3000 BC in ancient Egypt, and the oldest known suture is in a mummy from 1100 BC. A detailed description of a wound suture and the suture materials used in it is by the Indian sage and physician Sushruta, written in 500 BC. The Greek father of medicine, Hippocrates, described suture techniques, as did the later Roman Aulus Cornelius Celsus.
The protoconch consists of 1½ smooth, minute whorls. The suture is deep. The aperture is oval and angled above. The outer lip is somewhat thickened, sinuous, with a broad shallow sinus just below the suture.
The bregma is located at the intersection of the coronal suture and the sagittal suture on the superior middle portion of the calvaria. It is the point where the frontal bone and parietal bones meet.
The larvae have a distinctive inverted Y suture on the forehead.
Propleurites subdivided by oblique suture into small episternum and large epimeron.
Anterior plagiocephaly is a clinical description of unilateral coronal synostosis. Children born with unilateral coronal synostosis develop due to compensatory mechanisms a skew head; a plagiocephaly. The sagittal suture 'divides' the coronal suture in two halves; unilateral meaning that either the right side or the left side to the sagittal suture is fused. This fact immediately raises an important point.
The spirals are most distinct near the columella. The transverse sculpture consists of (about nine on the body whorl) well-marked, prominent ribs, extending on the early whorls from suture to suture, and rather wide incremental lines, sometimes pleated at the suture. The anal fasciole is not constricted, obscure, with a shallow notch. The columella is distinct, with a well-marked siphonal fasciole.
The estuary of the River Shannon (Ireland's largest river) follows the line of the Iapetus suture on the west coast. The suture reaches the east coast at Clogherhead in County Louth. Ireland's crust (and sedimentary rocks) to the north-west of the suture originally derives from Laurentia (proto-North America), while the crust to the south-east is Avalonian ("European").
The sutures (or suture lines) are visible as a series of narrow, wavy lines on the surface of the shell. The sutures appear where each septa contacts the wall of the outer shell. The typical goniatitid has a suture with smooth saddles and lobes, which gives the name "goniatitic" to this particular suture pattern. In some the sutures have a distinctive "zigzag" pattern.
General map of central and southern Tibet depicting the Bangong suture (located between the BSZ and Qiangtang terrane) and Bangong suture zone (BSZ) and surrounding terranes. Map is modified from Guynn et al., 2011. The Bangong suture zone is approximately 1200 km long and trends in an east–west orientation, and a key location in the central Tibet conjugate fault zone.
The outer lip is thick, the inner lip is not callous. The columella shows 3 distinct folds. The aperture is obtuse anteriorly. Each whorl has about 15 radial costae slightly raised and continuous from suture to suture.
Frons slightly concave. Eyes glabrous. Clypeus almost flat laterally. No malar suture.
Frons slightly concave. Eyes glabrous. Clypeus almost flat laterally. No malar suture.
Suture has been the same as in the case of young Oxynoticeras.
Very fine axials, about 42 in the penultimate whorl, run obliquely back from the suture to the angle, and then at an obtuse angle obliquely forward to the suture. Variations: One example has only one spiral above its very sharp angle, namely, a bold cord just below the suture, making this more channelled and only one below the angle just above the suture in the second and third whorls, and seven in the body whorl. Verco, J.C. 1909. Notes on South Australian marine Mollusca with descriptions of new species.
The age at death of an individual can be determined from several skeletal markers, including cranial suture closure, tooth eruption rates, rates of epiphyseal fusion on long bones, and others. Cranial bones fuse together along suture lines throughout the life of every human, and can be used to estimate the age at death of human remains. The small size and lack of suture closure of Anzick-1's crania revealed that the individual was 1–2 years old. The metopic suture is also present in the frontal bone of Anzick-1.
Details of the suture are often useful in discriminating one species from another, for example, sometimes the suture is channeled. The suture also provides a sort of geographic marker from which one can refer to the positioning of patterning or sculpture, where that is relevant: for example some species have a darker or lighter subsutural band on the shell. When an angulation of the whorls occurs, the space between it and the suture above it (i.e. the abaxial edge of the sutural ramp) constitutes the area known as the "shoulder" of the shell.
The suture is distinct, preceded by an obscure thickened margin, not appressed. The whorls descend flatly from the suture to the shoulder. The axial sculpture consists of (on the body whorl 10 or 11) short, protractively oblique rounded ribs, extending on the spire from the shoulder to the succeeding suture, but on the body whorl not over the base. Obscure incremental lines arcuate on the anal fasciole.
In scaphocephaly the sagittal suture is prematurely fused. The sagittal suture runs from the front to the back of the head. The shape of this deformity is a long narrow head, formed like a boat (Greek skaphe, "light boat or skiff"). The compensatory head- growth forward at the coronal suture gives a prominent forehead, frontal bossing and a prominent back of the head, called coning.
Conversely, if the suture is completely formed, one can assume an age of greater than thirty-five. Two anatomical landmarks are found on the sagittal suture: the bregma, and the vertex of the skull. The bregma is formed by the intersection of the sagittal and coronal sutures. The vertex is the highest point on the skull and is often near the midpoint of the sagittal suture.
The 6½ whorls show a flat shelf below the suture, angulated at about one-fifth of their breadth, and rounded from the angulation to the suture. The body whorl is bluntly angulated at the edge of the rounded base. The suture is strong, being slightly impressed and very distinctly marked by the angle at which the adjoining whorls meet. The round aperture is a little oblique.
The front lobe is rounded. The hind lobe is angularly notched and as long as or a little shorter than the width of the bridge. The longest median suture is that between the abdominals, which about equals the length of the front lobe. The gulars are usually shorter than the suture between the humerals, their suture with the latter shields forming a right angle.
Often a Buhner suture is placed in the vulva to prevent subsequent reprolapse.
The suture is linear. Below the suture runs an elevated spiral cord. In the intervals between the ribs and on the base are fine spiral threads. The fasciole area is excavate, ornamented with fine spiral threads crossed by concentric strife.
The others are slightly concave above the suture and then slightly obtuse. The aperture is narrow and measures almost half the length of the shell. The outer lip is sinuate close to the suture. The columella is straight and oblique.
They terminate a little posterior to the suture thus leaving a plain, narrow band immediately above the suture. The sutures are somewhat constricted. The periphery and the base of the body whorl are well rounded and smooth. The aperture is subquadrate.
The length of the shell varies between 20 mm and 45 mm. The imperforate shell is globosely ovate, with the suture excavated. The 5–6 whorls are convex and carinate. The body whorl is ventricose, with erect tubercles at the suture.
The shell of this species has a long basal suture. It is conoid-lenticular, rather solid, acutely carinate. It is pale in color, narrowly banded with chestnut above the keel and at the suture. The spire is shortly conoid in shape.
Vomer flap surgery involves the suture line of the vomer bone which is an important site for midface growth. In this case, a suture line refers to boundary between two bony plates which eventually grow together as the child matures.
It is covered with numerous, rather conspicuous, thin, raised riblets, which are strongly excurved in the middle and bend forward before reaching the suture. Two or sometimes three cinguli exist on the subsutural band. The uppermost of these is just below the suture and forms there a small carina, above which the suture is distinctly channeled. The surface between the ribs is everywhere covered by fine, distinct, flexuous lines of growth.
It is white, with an ashy pale- brown epidermis. The aperture measures less than half the length of the shell. The suture is distinct, not channeled The anal notch is rather anterior, about as deep as wide, separated from the suture behind by a somewhat excavated area. The spiral sculpture consists of, in front of the suture, a plain, strong thread, in front of that three or four anteriorly diminishing threads.
The zygomaticomaxillary complex fracture, also known as a quadripod fracture, quadramalar fracture, and formerly referred to as a tripod fracture or trimalar fracture, has four components: the lateral orbital wall (at either the zygomaticofrontal suture superiorly along the wall or zygomaticosphenoid suture inferiorly), separation of the maxilla and zygoma along the anterior maxilla (near the zygomaticomaxillary suture), the zygomatic arch, and the orbital floor near the infraorbital canal.
The length of the shell attains 13 mm, its width 4 mm. (Original description) The specimens of this small shell are quite imperfect; The spire is long and slender and contains six convex whorls showing in the best specimen. The suture is impressed with a well-marked border anteriorly. The whorls show eighteen radial ridges, which extend from suture to suture and are strongly twisted forward at the anterior end.
A barbed suture is a type of knotless surgical suture that has barbs on its surface. While suturing tissue, these barbs penetrate inside the tissue and lock them into place, eliminating the need for knots to tie the suture. Conventional sutures rely on a surgeon's ability to tie secure knots; barbed sutures provide a knotless alternative in some surgical situations. Barbed sutures are primarily used in cosmetic surgery.
Along the suture, the elytra are smooth and there are two large lateral spots.
The suture is deeply impressed. The columella is long, smooth within, obsolete sculpture without. .
The apex is eroded, but evidently small. The shell contains 7 or 8 whorls, of regular increase, quite flat, except the last, which is very slightly constricted below the suture, a very little tumid on the upper slope, sharply carinated but not much angulated at the suture, and very tumid on the base. The suture is linear, strongly defined above by the square furrow lying between the lines of tubercles which marginate the suture above and below. On the body whorl it becomes slightly pouting, from the projection of the carina and the slight infrasutural constriction.
The Titiwangsa Range is part of a suture zone that runs north-south, starting in Thailand at the Nan-Uttaradit suture zone (partly coincident with the Dien Bien Phu fault), and extending south towards Peninsular Malaysia (Bentong-Raub suture zone). The western half of the Titiwangsa Mountains in Peninsular Malaysia is an amalgamation of continental terranes known as Cimmeria or Indochina, whereas the eastern half is an amalgamation of continental terranes Sinoburmalaya or Sibumasu. These two halves of terranes were separated by the Paleo-Tethys Ocean.Metcalfe, I., 2000, "The Bentong-Raub Suture Zone", Journal of Asian Earth Sciences, v.
These are flatly rounded and with a deep suture. The aperture is narrow, slightly oblique, and sinuous. The outer lip is thick, slightly expanded and denticulate within. The sinus is deep and broad, near the suture, but surrounded by a thick lip.
The length of the shell attains 15 mm. The shell is closely reticulated with longitudinal and revolving lines, with a flatly obtuse keel near the suture. The lip-sinus is distinct. The shell is yellowish white, painted with chestnut spots around the suture.
Part of the basaltic oceanic crust was incorporated into the accretionary wedge. Santosh named the accretionary wedge region as Inner Mongolia Suture Zone. Khondalite belt was also formed in the suture zone. Fig. 6. Tectonic evolution of the Western Block proposed by Santosh.
They are very sharply carinated at the canal, the under edge of which in particular is prominent and expressed. Below the canal they contract into the suture. The base of the shell is tumid. The suture is strongly impressed and very distinct.
The point where the upper temporal line cuts the coronal suture is named the stephanion.
Midline plication of the fibromuscular layer was done with buttressing 2-0 absorbable vicryl suture.
The apex consists of 1¼ embryonic whorls, globose, smooth, and somewhat obliquely pressed down on one side at the extreme point. The 7½ whorls are narrow, angulated, with a straight drooping shoulder below the suture, slightly concave between the keels, contracted into the lower suture. The base is conical, and projects on the right side into a long, narrow, and very slightly twisted snout. The suture a fine, sharp, deeply impressed line.
This is due to the less dense Dangerous Grounds not having a big enough density contrast compared to the overlying plate. Therefore, with the end to subduction a suture was formed where the proto-South China Sea ceased subduction and the crustal margins came together. The proposed suture lies beneath Mount Kinabalu in northeast Borneo. The subduction zone is generally thought to be about 400 km to the northwest of the suture.
Ipsilateral indicates the same side of the head as where the suture is closed. Compensatory growth occurs in a parallel plane, as well as in a perpendicular plane. An increase in growth at the metopic and the sagittal suture accounts for the parallel plane and will result in bulging at the temporal fossa. Compensatory growth in the perpendicular plane occurs on the side of the head with the patent coronal suture, the contralateral side.
The suture is distinct. The anal sulcus is shallow and somewhat removed from the suture. The fascicle is narrow and depressed. The spiral sculpture consists of a low blunt peripheral keel, somewhat undulated on the earlier whorls with occasional traces of minor spiral threads.
There is no distinct secondary striation. The transverse sculpture consists of faint incremental lines, which rise more or less into little wrinkles at the suture, and sometimes undulate the peripheral angulation on the apical whorls. The suture is distinct. The whorls are moderately full.
Magmatism continued through the Permian in the Tien Shan mountains, accompanied by deformation and the deposition of molasse sediments in different basins. Structural geologists distinguish a number of tectonic features from the Paleozoic including the Nikolaev's Line, Talas-Fergana Fault, Turkestan Suture and Terskey Suture.
The northeast-trending Zhenghe–Dapu fault is thought to be the suture between the Cathaysia Block and the Tolo Terrane. The Tolo Channel Fault in Hong Kong possibly represents a trace of the suture. Therefore, the newly defined unit is named the Tolo Terrane.
The suture is submargined. The columella is obliquely uniplicate.G.W. Tryon, Manual of Conchology vol. VIII p.
The suture is sinuous, with ventral and lateral lobes. The position of the siphuncle is unknown.
The Bangong- Nujiang suture, in particular, features extensive high pressure terranes throughout much of its length.
Craniosynostosis occurs when the fetal skull and facial bones fuse too soon in utero, disrupting normal bone growth. Fusion of different sutures leads to different patterns of growth on the skull. Examples include: trigonocephaly (fusion of the metopic suture), brachycephaly (fusion of the coronal suture and lambdoid suture bilaterally), dolichocephaly (fusion of the sagittal suture), plagiocephaly (fusion of coronal and lambdoidal sutures unilaterally) and oxycephaly or turricephaly (fusion of coronal and lambdoid sutures). Findings for the incidence of the syndrome in the population have varied, with estimates as low as 1 birth in 200,000 provided and 160,000 given as an average by older studies.
The axial sculpture consists of rather coarse, irregular incremental lines, retractively arcuate in front of the suture, though there is no distinct fasciole. The aperture is elongate. The anal sulcus is close to the suture and is rather deep. The outer lip is thin and smooth inside.
The length of the shell attains 5.7 mm, its diameter 2.1 mm. (Original description) The narrow shell has a fusiform shape. It contains 6 whorls, including the protoconch of 2 smooth convex whorls, with simple suture. The whorls of the spire are convex, with simple suture.
The body whorl is usually depressed or subconcave below the suture. The base of the shell is rounded, eroded and iridescent in front of the aperture. The suture is linear, margined below by a strong cord. The large aperture is oblique, greenish iridescent, and closely lirate.
The rectus fascia is closed with monofilament absorbable suture. The rectus muscle stumps do not require suturing. The skin and subcutaneous tissue are closed with subcuticular suture. The complications associated with Maylard incision are delayed bleeding from cut edges of rectus muscles and from deep epigastric vessels.
The 4 whorls increase rather slowly until the last, which is rather large. The suture is broadly, angularly impressed. A little below the suture there is a bluntly angulated spiral keel. And on the middle of the base, towards the oblique aperture there is another keel.
There is a slight thickening just below the suture.. The body whorl contains 15 spiral ribs. The small aperture is red and measures ⅓ of the total length of the shell. The sinus is small and is slightly situated below the suture. The siphonal canal is very short.
The length of the shell attains 1.3 mm, its diameter 0.7 mm. (Original description) The very minute, yellowish shell contains 3½ whorls, including a 1½ whorled protoconch, which is large, rounded, and spirally lirate. The two adult whorls are strongly angled at the periphery, from whence to the suture they are flat or concave. The sculpture consists of sharp, narrow, axial ribs, about twelve on the body whorl, which extend from suture to suture, and pass into the aperture.
The Qiantang terrane is one of three main west-east-trending terranes of the Tibetan Plateau. During the Triassic, a southward-directed subduction along its northern margin resulted in the Jin-Shajing suture, the limit between it and the Songpan-Ganzi terrane. During the Jurassic, the Lhasa terrane merged with its southern margin along the Bangong suture. This suture, the closure of part of the Tethys Ocean, transformed the Qiantang terrane into a large-scale anticline.
The region near the suture is almost smooth. The suture is very distinct, but not channelled. The umbilicus is bordered by an edge from which the flattened base falls away, and with straight walls forming an almost perfect cone. The body whorl is contracted just before the reflected lip, which, above, rounds out in advance of its junction with the suture, the last 6.3 mm of which descends on the whorl, giving the aperture a downward look.
The nasion () is the most anterior point of the frontonasal suture that joins the nasal part of the frontal bone and the nasal bones. It marks the midpoint at the intersection of the frontonasal suture with the internasal suture joining the nasal bones. It is visible on the face as a distinctly depressed area directly between the eyes, just superior to the bridge of the nose. It is a cephalometric landmark that is just below the glabella.
The asterion is the point on the skull corresponding to the posterior end of the parietomastoid suture.
Missing suture zone rocks in the Main Central Thrust also makes it difficult to explain this model.
They identified the Betsimisaraka suture in eastern Madagascar as the boundary between the African and India terranes.
The axial sculpture consists of seven strong rounded somewhat sigmoid ribs, slightly shouldered near the suture, continuous up the spire and obliquely retract ive posteriorly. There are no obvious incremental lines. The ribs extend from the siphonal canal to the suture on the body whorl. The aperture is narrow,.
The suture is appressed. The spiral sculpture consists of numerous subequal little elevated revolving threads with wider interspaces. They are strongest on the summit of the riblets and faint in the interspaces. There are about five in front of the fasciole and between it and the next suture.
A few irregular linear markings run down from the suture. There are two series of broad, equidistant bands of distant zig-zag lines on the body whorl. The shell is spotted below the suture with the spots ceasing on the penultimate whorl. The remaining spiral whorls contain no markings.
The suture is distinct, undulating. The subsutural band is very narrow, concave, lapping well on the preceding whorl. Prominent, strong, oblique, rounded ribs, nine on the body whorl, separated by concave spaces of about the same width, cross the whorls from suture to suture, faintly defined on the subsutural band, and most prominent just below it. On the body whorl, these gradually lade away at the base of the siphon, and appear on the siphonal canal as conspicuous, much curved lines of growth.
The lower part of the whorls is slightly convex. On the lower whorls, the sculpture consists of a row of rather strong tubercles at some distance from the suture, the flattened space between suture and tubercles is also lamelliferous. A second row of smaller tubercles makes its appearance, and becomes more conspicuous on the body whorl. At some distance from the lower suture, a spiral rib, with inconspicuous beads, is crossed by irregular, waved lamellae, which spread on the large keel.
The radiating lines, almost microscopic in Gaza daedala, are in this form impressed in the early whorls near the suture, so as to produce a succession of short ripples, following the recurved lines of growth, which give a fringe-like ornamentation to the suture, at the rate of about five ripples to a millimeter. The margin of the suture in this form is distinctly appressed, forming a narrow border. The operculum has about seven whorls. The umbilicus is completely floored over.
Clypeus slightly convex. No malar suture Antennae weakly setiform. Mesosoma not depressed. Pterostigma of fore wing rather narrow.
The suture is profound. The aperture is subquadrangular. The lip is smooth within. The columella is pretty vertical.
At the same operation he had a Kay-type suture plication tricuspid annuloplasty of the posterior-septal commissure.
X. bamaolinensis preserves a type 2 suture while X. kohi has a type 1 suture. X. suni's suture differs between specimens while X. xinyiensis seems to have a type 2 suture. The dentary is also narrow and shorter than the snout, with robust, pointed teeth in the front of its jaws and broad crushing teeth in the back of its jaws, suggesting that it fed on hard-shelled prey, although these adaptations are not as extreme as those of Concavispina, which had exclusively short and blunt teeth. This genus also has a uniquely upward-curving maxilla, a wide proximal end of the humerus, and a radius with a convex lateral edge and concave medial edge.
The frontal suture is a fibrous joint that divides the two halves of the frontal bone of the skull in infants and children. Typically, it completely fuses between three and nine months of age, with the two halves of the frontal bone being fused together. It is also called the metopic suture,Medscape > Congenital Synostoses, by Silvio Podda, MD. Updated: Aug 18, 2010 although this term may also refer specifically to a persistent frontal suture.Dictionary.com > metopic suture in turn citing: The American Heritage, Stedman's Medical Dictionary, Copyright 2002 If the suture is not present at birth because both frontal bones have fused (craniosynostosis), it will cause a keel-shaped deformity of the skull called "trigonocephaly".
The length of the shell attains 50 mm. (Original description) The solid, slender shell is pale brown or whitish. It contains ten whorls (the nepionic whorls lost) strongly appressed at the suture; anal fascicle close to the suture,. The whorls are smooth or faintly spirally striated, rather wide and excavated.
The nucleus is smooth. The upper whorls have concentric ribs. On the third whorl they are pointed above, at some distance from the suture, and near the base of this whorl, appears a row of tubercles on a spiral rib. The subsequent whorls are slightly concave or canaliculated near the suture.
This is best seen in a view standing above the child looking downward at the top of the head. Compensatory growth occurs forward at the coronal suture and backward at the lambdoid suture giving respectively a prominent forehead, called frontal bossing, and a prominent back portion of the head, called coning.
The shell has two high rounded equidistant spiral ribs on each whorl. The distance between the ribs are equal to their with, and equal to the distance between those on each side of the suture. The suture is not distinguishable. It has 3 additional low spiral ribs on the base.
The distinct suture is not appressed. The axial sculpture shows numerous somewhat irregular narrow close-set wrinkles, extending over the whorl from the suture to the verge of the funicular umbilicus. The spiral sculpture shows a few spiral lines near the umbilicus. The subcircular aperture is oblique and produced above.
With regard to the suture Proclydonautilus is most similar to Cosmonautilus and Callaionautilus, both also from the Late Triassic.
Large pits surround the post parietal suture and are deeper than all other pits that occur on the skull.
The first one and a half whorls are perfectly smooth, while the last one is crossed by minute, transverse riblets. The suture is marked by a conspicuous, rounded, undulating cingulus (= colored bands or spiral ornamentation) or thread on the preceding whorl. The sculpture consists of prominent, straight, angular, alternating ribs (nine on the body whorl), forming a conspicuous node at the angle, extending from suture to suture. These, with their deeply concave interspaces, are crossed by unequal, conspicuous, well-rounded, granulated cinguli and microscopic threads.
The mesothorax and metathorax each have a pleural suture (mesopleural and metapleural sutures) that runs from the wing base to the coxa of the leg. The sclerite anterior to the pleural suture is called the episternum (serially, the mesepisternum and metepisternum). The sclerite posterior to the suture is called the epimiron (serially, the mesepimiron and metepimiron). Spiracles, the external organs of the respiratory system, are found on the pterothorax, usually one between the pro- and mesopleoron, as well as one between the meso- and metapleuron.
Each of the two models makes a different prediction for reactivation along the Bangong suture. The "soft Tibet" model suggests that a series of small multiple faults along the suture zone would occur, due to the ductile nature of the lithosphere. Based on the micro-plate tectonics model, large strike-slip faults with significant displacement should be present. Crustal extrusion (in the form of sinistral strike-slip faults) should also be present and would be caused by oblique subduction at the edges of the suture zone.
The anterior fontanelle (bregmatic fontanelle, frontal fontanelle) is the largest fontanelle, and is placed at the junction of the sagittal suture, coronal suture, and frontal suture; it is lozenge-shaped, and measures about 4 cm in its antero-posterior and 2.5 cm in its transverse diameter. The fontanelle allows the skull to deform during birth to ease its passage through the birth canal and for expansion of the brain after birth. The anterior fontanelle typically closes between the ages of 12 and 18 months.
The six whorls, exclusive of the (lost) nucleus, are rounded. The; suture is very distinct. There is no axial sculpture, except incremental lines, unless on the (eroded) apical whorls. The siphonal fasciole is wide, extending from the suture to an obscure ridge which forms the shoulder of the whorl just behind the periphery.
The summit of the spire is apparently blunt. the whorls in the young are short in their axial dimension, giving a " chunky " aspect to the shell. The earlyTwhorls contain two beaded spiral series or cordons one at the posterior suture, and another, larger, near the anterior suture. Between them is the anal fasciole.
The length of the shell attains 6 mm, its diameter 3 mm. (Original description) The small, dull white shell is fusiform, with a large smooth white protoconch of 1½ whorls and 3½ subsequent whorls. The suture is distinct. The whorls are moderately rounded, sometimes with a shoulder in front of the suture.
The suture is simple and is margined by a flat, narrow band. The base of the shell is moderately contracted. The aperture is elongate-oval, slightly constricted into a short, open siphonal canal. The outer lip is thin, simple, convex in profile, with a shallow, wide depression just belowi the ascending suture.
These are near the suture smooth except for the distinct lines of growth indicating the deep wide notch. The suture is appressed and indistinct. Elsewhere the shell is sculptured with numerous nearly uniform flattened revolving threads with about equal interspaces. Otherwise it shows obliquely transverse elevations, hardly limited sharply enough to call ribs.
The shell contains numerous whorls, convex, slightly angulated and noduled on the periphery. They are flexuously longitudinally ribbed below and cancellated by raised revolving lines. The suture is bordered by an obliquely nodulous band. The color of the shell is yellowish or flesh-brown, sometimes narrowly dark-banded at the suture and base.
The suture is simple, with a broad ventral saddle, broad lateral lobe, a dorso-lateral saddle, and a moderately deep hidden dorsal lobe. Septal necks are usually short and do not form a continuous tube. The suture and siphuncle are characteristic of the family. Clymenia is type genus of the family Clymeniidae.
Proceedings of the California Academy of Sciences 54 (24): 407-462. The dorsal scales are arranged in 21 longitudinal rows at midbody. There are 9–11 upper labials, of which the first are separated from nasal scales by a distinct suture. The supraoculars are single, narrow, and sometimes divided by a transverse suture.
Virchow's law dictates that, when premature suture closure occurs, growth of the skull typically is restricted perpendicularly to the fused suture and enhanced in a plane parallel to it, thus trying to provide space for the fast-growing brain. Using this law, the pattern of skull deformity in craniosynostosis often may be predicted.
The whorls are straight-sloping, with crowded spiral lirae, about 24 on the penultimate. They are crossed by oblique crowded accremental striae, producing sublenticular pitting. The suture is linear, immediately beneath the prominent peripheral cord which gradates the spire. The body whorl contains a suture that is slightly descending at the aperture.
The Plectopylidae differ from the Corillidae by the presence of one or two vertical (= perpendicular to the suture) lamellae on the parietal wall, approximately a quarter to a half whorl behind the aperture. In contrast, the Corillidae have only horizontal (= parallel with the suture) parietal plicae (in Corilla all plicae may be absent).
On the bottom, however, the whorls are more curved and separated by a distinct suture. Shell with very sharp keel.
The outer lip is strongly varixed. The sinus at the suture is deep and open and bordered by a varix.
An excision of the flattened occipital bone with release of the fused suture tends to correct the cranial vault deformity.
Both methods help the underlying area to heal. # Remove the fissure and any underlying scar tissue. # Suture back the wound.
The four whorls are convex. The suture is very deep. The aperture is circular. The thin peristome is slightly expanded.
The base is convex. The suture is impressed. The aperture is a little oblique, subcircular. The peristome is simple, straight.
The periphery is rounded. The base of the shell is convex. The suture is impressed. The circular aperture is oblique.
One explanation for this increasing extravagancy in suture pattern is that it leads to a higher strength of the shell.
The suture is well marked. The aperture is suboval. The outer lip is simple. They possess only one columellar fold.

In vivo cranial suture function and suture morphology in the extant fish Polypterus: implications for inferring skull function in living and fossil fish. Journal of Experimental Biology, 209(11), 2085–2102. The main cause of sutural deformation is caused by strain during feeding activity, most prominent with feeding mechanisms involving sucking a prey into the mouth.Markey, M. J., Main, R. P., & Marshall, C. R. (2006). In vivo cranial suture function and suture morphology in the extant fish Polypterus: implications for inferring skull function in living and fossil fish. Journal of Experimental Biology, 209(11), 2085–2102. There is a tension anteriorly, and compression posteriorly strain patterns are observed in Polypterus, a prey-sucking predator.
The length of the shell attains 4.5 mm, its diameter 1.7 mm. (Original description) The minute shell is whitish, with a narrow brown band below the periphery in front of which the suture is laid. The protoconch is small with 1½ polished whorls followed by 4½ sculptured whorls. The suture is distinct, undulated not appressed.
It is followed by 4½ subsequent reticulate whorls. These are axially minutely ribbed, the sculpture passing into that of the normal subsequent whorls. The suture is distinct, not appressed. The spiral sculpture between the succeeding suture and the fasciole on the spire, consists of four equal and equally spaced threads with slightly wider interspaces.
The shell has an elongate-conic shape. it is creamy yellow, with a narrow, golden brown band situated about one-fourth of the distance between the apex and suture posterior to the suture. (The whorls of the protoconch are decollated). The whorls of the teleoconch are slightly rounded, and feebly shouldered at the summit.
Sturia is a genus of ceratitid ammonoids from the Lower Triassic with an ammonitic suture. Sturia produced a robust, laterally compressed, high whorled, involute shell; whorls strongly embracing. the surface is without ribs or constructions but does have sharp spiral lines. the suture is ammonitic, deeply digitate; lobes and saddles narrowly V-shaped overall.
The aperture is of medium width. The outer lip is thin and gently rounded. The anal sinus is shallow, located nearly adjacent to the suture. The sculpture on the juvenile whorls consists of a row of small rounded beads set on a low shoulder directly beneath the suture and with weak spiral lines below.
The rest are convex with a shallow suture. The 12 opisthocline, almost straight axial ribs (11 on the penultimate whorl) are rounded and are wider than the intervals, not becoming weak below suture. The ribs are crossed by fine, flattened threads. The inner lip is smooth or with two small denticles at each end.
Monocryl is a synthetic, absorbable suture manufactured in Cornelia, Georgia, USA, and trademarked by Ethicon. It is composed of poliglecaprone 25, which is a copolymer of glycolide and epsilon-caprolactone. It comes both dyed (violet) and undyed (clear) and is an absorbable monofilament suture. It is generally used for soft-tissue approximation and ligation.
There are 3½ subsequent whorls. Their sculpture consists of narrow, slightly oblique ribs which pass across the spire-whorls from suture to suture and on the body whorl follow down on the anterior canal to its tip. There are 8 ribs on the body whorl. The spaces between the ribs are wide, flat and smooth.
Its color pattern is olive-green or brownish. The 6–7 whorls are slightly convex, obliquely finely striate, longitudinally finely plicate. The folds stand at right angles to the striae, and are interrupted one-third of the distance from the suture to the periphery by two spiral impressed furrows. The linear suture is undulating.
The spire whorls are subangulate a little below the suture, giving t he latter the appearance of being somewhat impressed. Each whorl bears from ten to twelve strong costae, usually the former number. The costae are slightly oblique, are usually narrower than the interspaces between them and extend of a uniform breadth from the anterior suture to the posterior angulation, thence to the posterior suture tapering slightly, and forwardly directed to a slight extent. On the anterior lower half of the body whorl the costae are backwardly arched, and thin out towards the columella.
Catgut suture is made by twisting together strands of purified collagen taken from the serosal or submucosal layer of the small intestine of healthy ruminants (cattle, sheep, goats) or from beef tendon. The natural plain thread is precision ground in order to achieve a monofilament character and treated with a glycerol- containing solution. The suture is sterilized with a sterilizing fluid containing ethylene oxide, isopropyl alcohol and distilled water. Catgut suture is straw-colored, and is available in sizes USP 6-0 (1 metric) to USP 3 (7 metric).
The anal sinus is moderately broad and deep, adjacent to the suture and showing only a slight amount of recurving from the apex of the sinus to the suture. The sculpture consists of inclined axials, about eight visible from an angle on the young whorls but becoming obsolete on the body whorl. Medium textured raised spiral lines below the periphery, extending with about equal strength to the tip of the columella. The subsutural slope is sculptured with similar lines which are weaker immediately above the periphery, but stronger near the suture.
In arthropod and vertebrate anatomy, the vertex (or cranial vertex) is the upper surface of the head. In humans, the vertex is formed by four bones of the skull: the frontal bone, the two parietal bones, and the occipital bone. These bones are connected by the coronal suture between the frontal and parietal bones, the sagittal suture between the two parietal bones, and the lambdoid suture between the parietal and occipital bones. Vertex baldness refers to a form of male pattern baldness in which the baldness is limited to the vertex, resembling a tonsure.
The blocks were also subjected to metamorphic evolution during the Triassic and Jurassic periods when the rock was heated up by the intrusion of hot molten rock called magma from the Earth's interior. The Caledonian (Iapetus) plate cycle saw the formation of the Iapetus suture during the Caledonian orogeny. The Iapetus suture was a major weakness creating a volcanic fault in the central North Sea during the later Jurassic period. The Iapetus ocean was replaced with a suture line and mountain range when Laurentia, Baltica and Avalonia continents collided.
These lirations become more conspicuous on the lower whorls, which have the median keel, another one just below the suture and in some parts traces of a third one, running entirely or partly in the deep suture. Moreover, the whole shell is covered with microscopic, close-set, spiral threads. This sculpture is crossed by conspicuous riblets, fainter on the upper whorls, very strong on the lower ones, and by very fine growth- striae. The riblets are not close-set and form conspicuous spines below the suture of the lower whorls.
He invented the "basted suture," which he used to treat aneurysms. He also was among the first to practice phlebotomy, suturing the tear in a vein. He developed an intestinal suture that could be naturally expelled from the channel through which it was placed, which did not necessitate the laparotomic incision that was previously required for suture removal. Some of his innovations were in the field of general medicine: he was an early practitioner of asepsis, taking exceptional care to clean his hands, instruments, and the operating room.
The suture is impressed. The body whorl is very short and slightly inflated. The aperture is ovate. The columella is sinuate.
The spire is very short and depressed. The apex is planate. The suture is linear. The 3½ subplane whorls increase rapidly.
Contrary to many other known orogenic belts the Sveconorwegian orogens eastern border does not have any known suture zone with ophiolites.

The protoconch is usually blunt. The aperture is entire and rounded. Its top coincides with a suture. The umbilicus is lacking.
Women who consented to participate in the study were assigned randomly before labor to chromic catgut or fast-absorbing synthetic suture.
The length of the shell attains 13 mm, its diameter 5.5 mm. (Original description) The white shell shows a straw-colored periostracum. It consists of six shouldered whorls, a subglobular small protoconch, and a distinct suture. The spiral sculpture consists of (on the upper whorl four or five) rounded threads, between the shoulder and the succeeding suture.
This marine species reaches 18 mm in length, its diameter 6.6 mm. The shell is longitudinally ribbed and spirally striated. There is a narrow band at the suture brown, with sometimes a darker band at the suture and another at the base. G.W. Tryon (1884) Manual of Conchology, structural and systematic, with illustrations of the species, vol.
The length of the shell attains 9 mm, its diameter 6½ mm. The fusiform shell is grayish-white with red spots within the suture and elongated flammules on the body whorl. The shell contains 10½ whorls of which 1½ in the vitreous, convex protoconch. The whorls of the teleoconch are slightly concave below the distinct suture.
The sculpture consists of oblique opisthocline axial ribs, 11 on the first whorl, increasing to 12–13 on the body whorl, from suture to suture, and obsolescent on the base. The shell shows fine spiral striae 6–7 on the first whorl, increasing to about. 25 (between sutures) on the body whorl, crossing the ribs. No cingulum.
The length of the shell attains 5.3 mm, its diameter 2 mm. (Original description) The dull white shell is high, attenuate anteriorly. It contains six whorls, strongly angular, and including a smooth blunt two-whorled protoconch. A strong keel angles the periphery, another less strong halfway to the lower suture, and a third margins the suture.
The 4 adult whorls are very slightly convex, bearing four cinguli, three of approximately equal size, the fourth immediately above the suture being more strongly developed and producing a distinct carination in the body whorl. The suture is deeply canaliculate. The cinguli are granulose. The interstices are axially lirate, three lirae corresponding generally to two granules on the cinguli.
They are of slow increase, are biconical, contracting (with a straight outline) from the keel into the suture both above and below. The body whorl is short, with a slightly tumid rounded base contracting into a small equal-sided snout. The suture is very distinct, being contracted, impressed, and submarginated below. It is a little oblique.
It is transversely sculptured by twelve to fourteen rounded, stout, strongly raised ribs extending forward from the notch-band to the suture, or on the body whorl to its anterior third. On the last half of the last turn it is evanescent. The suture is appressed The lines of growth are evident. There is no spiral sculpture visible.
The body whorl is convex, but faintly contracted at the base. The suture is distinct, but little impressed. The aperture is lightly oblique, elongately oval, angled above, with a rudimentary, broad, and truncated siphonal canal below. The outer lip is convex, rather thin and sharp, smooth inside, with a very slight broad sinus below the suture.
Side view of the skull Human skull side sutures right A suture is a type of fibrous joint that is only found in the skull (cranial suture). The bones are bound together by Sharpey's fibres. A tiny amount of movement is permitted at sutures, which contributes to the compliance and elasticity of the skull. These joints are synarthroses.
Sphenarpites is an extinct genus of cephalopod belonging to the family Hildoceratidae. Only one specimen is known, which has been found in Kelat, Baluchistan, in today's Pakistan. Its involute, oxycone shell has very small umbilicus and umbilical wall is smoothly rounded. Suture is reduced with 1 or 2 adventitious saddles and about 10 auxiliary saddles in external suture.
The whole surface is closely sharply, and regularly scored with fine threads, which are a little stronger (but not quite so sharp) on the base than above. The spire is high, scalar, each whorl rising and expanding above the suture. The apex is very small and tabulated. The five whorls slope down flatly (barely convex) from the suture.
The length of the shell attains 52 mm, its diameter 20 mm. (Original description) The white shell has an ashy brown periostracum and six or more whorls, the apex eroded. The suture is slightly appressed, especially on the spire. The anal fasciole is wide and deep, somewhat in front of the suture and extending to a moderate peripheral carina.
The minute nucleus is flattish. The body whorl contains four strong, beaded, spiral cords with subequal interspaces, peripherally. Between these and the suture, there are three slightly smaller similar cords, the space at the suture giving a channeled effect. On the base there are two less prominent cords and two wider nodulous ridges around the deep, rather narrow umbilicus.
Gangloff et al. (2005) as an unnamed pachycephalosaurid, possibly a Pachycephalosaurus. Gangloff et al. described the squamosal as having an interdigitated suture with the quadrate, a feature previously described only in Pachycephalosaurus. Sullivan (2006) opined that this "suture" is instead a breakage point in both Alaskacephale and Pachycephalosaurus, so it could not be used to unite the two taxa.
It contains five slightly convex whorls, separated by a well-marked suture. At the top of each whorl, close to the suture, there is a very narrow, decurrent zone with many longitudinal striae. These end at the angle at the limit of the zone in a series of small tubercles. The rest of the surface shows feeble growth lines.
The height of the shell attains 3.5 mm, its diameter 4 mm. The small, white shell has a subglobular nucleus and 3½ subsequent whorls. The deep suture is distinct. The spiral sculpture on the spire consists of four or five equally distributed and subequal small threads with wider interspaces and a narrow flattish space in front of the suture.
The lower part of the whorl is just above where the suture extends outward and then at a sharp shoulder drops into the suture. The shell coloration can vary from cream to a greyish exterior with reddish-brown zigzag markings. The common name of this species is derived from the darker surface markings that sometimes resemble letters.
Gaudryceratidae is a family belonging to the extinct ammonoid suborder Lytoceratina that lived from the Barremian of the Lower Cretaceous to the Maastrichtian of the Upper Cretaceous. Gaudryceratids are lytocerins typically with rounded, oval, or depressed whorl sections that become higher with age; suture with more or less symmetrical, bifid saddles, internal suture with a single saddle.
The base of the shell is contracted. The suture is somewhat impressed, lightly margined below. The aperture is pyriform, broadly angled above, with a short, broad, oblique, and truncated siphonal canal below. The outer lip is convex, thickened by an axial rib, slightly angled above, and somewhat contracted below, with a shallow broad sinus at the suture.
Its eastern margin is the Timanide orogen which stretches north to the Novaya Zemlya archipelago. The extent of the Proterozoic continent are defined by the Iapetus Suture to the west; the Trollfjorden-Komagelva Fault Zone in the north; the Variscan-Hercynian suture to the south; the Tornquist Zone to the southwest; and the Ural Mountains to the east.
The first vertebral is as broad or broader in front as behind. The second vertebral is longer than the third, with which it forms a straight transverse suture. The fourth is longest and forms a broad suture with the third. The second vertebral is broader than long in the young, and as long as broad in the adult.
Scarless Serdev Suture suspension liftings use percutaneous skeletal fixation of movable fascias without incisions. In Brazil known as fio elastico., are used to correct early ptosis and flabbiness in areas of face and body. The suture suspension techniques are described to lift, if necessary to form volume and to correct position of soft tissue without traditional incisions.
The adventitious lobe of the suture is widely rounded and asymmetric, the ventral lobe and saddle small, the dorsolateral saddle relatively short.
Suture is relatively simple, without markedly retracted suspensive lobe. This animal lived during the Lower Cretaceous, from Upper Valanginian to Upper Barremian.
Yinshan Block was subducted under Ordos Block at 1.92 Ga, forming Inner Mongolia Suture Zone with some basaltic oceanic crust in between.
The periphery is obtusely keeled. The suture is narrow but distinct. There is no umbilicus. The columellar tooth is small, not prominent.
It is otherwise similar to plain catgut. Fast catgut suture is heat-treated to give even more rapid absorption in the body.
The suture is impressed. The periphery is round and barely angulate. The base of the shell is convex. The umbilicus is moderate.
Surgical suture. H&E; stain. Splinters are common foreign bodies in skin. Staphylococcus aureus infection often causes boils to form around them.
The shell is turreted, slender. The shell has 6 whorls. The shell is chalky white in color. The suture is deeply impressed.
The suture is appressed. The band is less prominent than in Glyphostoma gratula. The anal sinus is shallow. The columella is nearly straight.
The shell contains 8 whorls, slightly rounded. The suture is deepand smooth. The spire is acuminated. The apex is acute, brown and granulated.
The siphonal canal is short, more or less truncated. The columella is smooth. The sinus is near the suture. There is no operculum.
The suture is much impressed. The aperture is inflately lunate. It is tinged white and faintly dilate at the inner portion.Petterd, W. 1879.
The suture is impressed. The shell contains four whorls. The white apex is smooth. The last whorl is rapidly enlarging, subangular at periphery.
Mary attempts to suture her own wound shut but ultimately bleeds to death in her operating room, to be discovered by the police.
The outer lip is oblique, thickened by the last rib with a notch above the suture. The columellar margin is thin an narrow.
The other alternative is to suture the IOL to the eye or fix it in some other place like an anterior chamber IOL.
The coronal suture is a dense, fibrous connective tissue joint that separates the two parietal bones from the frontal bone of the skull.
The shell has a beautiful light salmon color, ornamented near the suture and carina with alternate patches of light yellow and chestnut-brown.
Outcropping in the northwest, these rocks were originally part of the suture north a large landmass and south of the Moesian Platform rocks.
Umbilicus is relatively large. The suture line is of ammonitic type.Redjaen These cephalopods were fast-moving nektonic carnivores.Paleobiology Database - Nannolytoceras. 2017-10-19.
These two domains are separated by a 2.7 Ga-old suture defined by two isotopic boundaries running north to south over the craton.
The Daka calvaria temporal squamae measure at approximately 5.7mm thick centrally. The posterior temporal is approximately 10.6mm thick adjacent to the occipitomastoid suture.
The axial sculpture consists of (on the body whorl) eight rather sharp ribs extending from the suture (which they undulate) to the region of the siphonal canal and continuous up the spire in a direct line with somewhat wider interspaces. The suture is distinct and appressed. The spiral sculpture consists of fine uniform evenly spaced rounded threads, not swollen where they cross the ribs. A single thread at the shoulder is more prominent but not larger than the others, from which and from the suture it is separated by a space devoid of the spiral sculpture which elsewhere covers the surface.
The spiral sculpture consists of extremely fine, close-set, regular threads, uniform over the entire surface, but scarcely visibly developed in the first four whorls, which appear polished to the naked eye. The threads on the body whorl are about nine in the breadth ol a millimeter. The transverse sculpture consists of rather stout, sharp ribs (on the seventh whorl ten) which extend from suture to suture, with a slight fiexuosity near the suture, but no marked interruption for a fasciole. On the body whorl there are fourteen of these ribs, beside the large shouldered varix behind the aperture.
The posterior terminations of these riblets are waved, forming an obscure notch-band, each being slightly enlarged close by the suture and also on the anterior side of the band, thus forming two rows of indistinct nodulations, of which the sutural row is more clearly defined than the other. The riblets extend from suture to suture, and near its anterior third become obsolete on the body whorl. Here eight or ten rather indistinct revolving threads exist, becoming more distinct toward the end of the siphonal canal, separated from each other by shallow grooves. These pass round the column into the aperture.
The suture is laid on the anterior keel, which is smaller, and in the subsequent whorls the suture is not appressed but distinct. The spiral sculpture consists of on the first two whorls a strong peripheral cord and one thread at the suture, on the third whorl three threads in front of the cord, on the remainder four. On the body whorl the peripheral cord is not prominent but from the anal fasciole to the siphonal canal are about 16 strong threads with wider interspaces and an occasional intercalary smaller thread. They do not nodulate when they cross the ribs.
Microscopic spirals are also present directly in front of the posterior suture and on the concave space between the anterior keel and the anterior suture. Two additional primaries are shown equal in prominence and spacing to the carinal spirals, upon the body, and about 12 similar primaries, regularly spaced and gradually decreasing in size anteriorly, upon the very base of the body and the columella. Secondaries are intercalated on the columella, in some specimens as many as 3 between a single pair of primaries, and a very fine threading upon the fasciole. The suture line is distinct but inconspicuous, overhung by the periphery.
In some insects the coxal suture falls in line with the pleural suture, and in such cases the coxa appears to be divided into two parts corresponding to the episternum and epimeron of the pleuron. The coxal suture is absent in many insects. The inflection of the coxal wall bearing the pleural articular surface divides the lateral wall of the basicoxite into a prearticular part and a postarticular part, and the two areas often appear as two marginal lobes on the base of the coxa. The posterior lobe is usually the larger and is termed the meron.
Mary then leaves the suture room but Abby approaches her, looking for the sonosite. Mary tells her she doesn't think it's in there. Abby attempts to sidestep Mary to enter the suture room but Mary stops her. Abby becomes suspicious and asks if there is something going on in there and Mary tells her they're about to do an intubation.
The protoconch is decorticated,. The suture is obscure and closely appressed. The spiral sculpture consists of an angle at the shoulder, between "v/hich" and the suture are four or five close-set small equal threads. In front of the shoulder is a constriction beyond which are about a dozen deep grooves with wider rounded interspaces which are finely spirally striated.
The shell contains 10 (?) whorls which increase rather rapidly. They are high, angulated, with a long, rather high, and scarcely concave shoulder, and with a straight slight contraction to the lower suture. The body whorl is very large in proportion to the rest, being long and somewhat tumid, and ends in an elongated, broad, unequal-sided snout. The suture is very slight indeed.
The shell contains four whorls besides the apex. They have a sloping shoulder above, are angulately keeled about the middle, below this they are convexly cylindrical, with a very slight amount of contraction into the suture. The body whorl is tumid, with a short rounded base, produced into a smallish, rather long, subtriangular truncated snout. The suture is almost horizontal, a little impressed.
They originate faintly at the suture, are strongest and somewhat mucronate at the angulation, extend to the lower suture, and appear on the base, but not on the aperture. They are much stronger on the earlier whorls than on the last one. There are very many fine hairlike lines of growth. There are a great many remote hairlike spiral threads.
The length of the shell attains 23 mm, its diameter 11 mm. The white ovately fusiform shell contains 10 whorls. In some of the upper whorls the upper margin just beneath the suture is also more or less nodose. The tubercles just above the suture are crossed by two or three sulci, so that each of them is tripartite or quadripartite.
The suture is horizontal, lapping up on the superior whorl and is only distinct from the angle at which the whorls meet. The aperture is short and pear-shaped, angled above and channelled below. The outer lip is very thin .It has a wide U-shaped sinus lying close up to the suture, from which it is separated by a very minute shelf.
The shell contains eight or nine strongly ribbed whorls. The spiral sculpture, sometimes obsolete near the suture, consists of extremely fine, wavy, close-set, incised lines. The transverse sculpture consists of (on the penultimate whorl 9 to 11) nearly straight stout ribs extending from the suture over the periphery and lost on the base. The fasciole is not well marked;.
The Meliata suture is an area of closure of the Triassic-Jurassic Meliata Ocean during the Kimmerian phase. It constitutes the boundary between the Central and Inner Western Carpathians. The position of the boundary is disputable; different authors place the Meliata suture in different areas. It is identified with the Rožňava line, Lubeník-Margecany Line, or possibly placed even more to the South.
The suture is very closely appressed and the anal fasciole nearly free from axial and with only very fine spiral threads. The anal sulcus is wide and deep beginning at the suture. The outer lip is thin, much produced, roundly arcuate to the somewhat constricted base of the whorl. The aperture, including the siphonal canal, is as long as the spire.
The shell contains 7 whorls, of which three smooth conical whorls in the protoconch. The rest are strongly convex with a shallow suture. The 7 axial ribs (9-10 on the penultimate whorl) are high, strong and compressed and are narrower than the intervals, not becoming weak below suture. The ribs are crossed by fine, flattened lirae (12 on the penultimate whorl).
Head of plagiocephalic baby viewed from above Kinds of craniosynostosis Children born with craniosynostosis have a distinct phenotype, i.e., appearance—observable traits caused by the expression of a condition's genes. The features of craniosynostosis' particular phenotype are determined by which suture is closed. The fusion of this suture causes a certain change in the shape of the skull; a deformity of the skull.
The five whorls have a height of 16 mm and a maximum diameter 5.75 mm. The small, slender shell is elongate. It contains more than 6 flattish whorls (specimen decollate). The suture is distinct, separated from the fasciole in front by an elevated spiral ridge, carinated and beveled from the carina to the suture which is slightly undulated by the ribs.
The lower whorls contain a row of large brown blotches at the suture. The body whorl has at the periphery a zone, articulated by oblong brown squares, alternating with yellow spaces. The upper and lower surface are more or less distinctly variegated with brown flames and spiral dots of the same color. The 5½ whorls are separated by an impressed suture.
These modifications included reconfiguring the pouch to decrease the number of suture lines from three to one (this allowed the pouch to heal faster and reduced the chance of developing fistulae); and creating a serosal patch over the suture lines which prevented leakage. The end result of these developments has been a continent intestinal reservoir with minimal complications and satisfactory function.
The closure of Iapetus involved a complex and protracted collisional history of numerous micro-continents, volcanic arcs and back-arc basins that were accreted to Laurentia and Avalonia between the Early Ordovician and Late Silurian. The notion of a single suture zone in a complex orogen such as the Appalachian/Caledonian is unrealistic as several temporal and spatial distinct suture zones are present.
The suture is deep but not channelled. The whorls are very round, but the spire is hardly rising above the body whorl. The base of the shell is rounded, with a very narrow umbilicus, into which the whorl descends without any angle or other change of curve. The large aperture is circular, the upper part a little angulated at the suture.
The shell is sculptured also with fine arcuate lines of growth, which are coarser towards the suture, giving a somewhat cancellated appearance to the shell at this part. They cross the four or five spirals below the narrowly channeled suture, producing minute sharp points or nodules upon them. The shell contains 5½ whorls. The globose nucleus is white, smooth and porcellanous.
The axial sculpture consists of (on the penultimate whorl 11, on the body whorl 9) promment, slightly shouldered ribs with wider interspaces. The ribs undulate the appressed suture. The spiral sculpture consists of close-set alternated threads over the whole surface except between the shoulder and the suture, which is arcuately striated by the incremental lines. The aperture is narrow and straight.
Tetragonitidae is a family of Cretaceous lytoceratin ammonites typically with square or trapezoidal whorl section at least during some growth stage. Members of this family are usually smooth but some lirate or striate, often with constrictions. Other features include suture with a varying number of auxiliary saddles, and an internal suture with two or more. Major saddles are irregularly trifid.
The plicae are delicate, oblique, about thirteen in number, and very short, commencing at the median angle and scarcely reaching the suture below. The aperture and the long siphonal canal measure about ½ the total length. The outer lip is tenuous, widely sinuate and prominently arcuate in the middle, and near the suture slightly sinuate. The columella is smooth and almost upright.
Surgeons can take several precautions to help decrease the probability of cheesewiring occurring. One technique determined to decrease suture drag is placement of the needle perpendicularly through the entire corneal thickness encompassed by the suture bite on each side of the incision. Certain sutures are also more prone to cheesewiring. 3-0 Vicryl is one of the least likely sutures to experience cheesewiring.
These rocks are often thrusted over the alluvial rocks of the sub-Himalaya. The Lesser Himalaya also contains granites and felsic volcanic rocks. The Central Himalayan Domain contains rocks from the Tethys Ocean and is also intruded by Miocene granites, related to the formation of the Himalaya. The Indus Suture Zone is the suture zone with the Lhasa terrane to the North.
Portion of rostral visible from above nearly as long as its distance from the frontal. Suture between the internasals half as long as the suture between the prefrontals. Frontal one and two fifths as long as broad, much longer than its distance from the end of the snout. Dorsal scales in 23 rows. Ventrals 243; anal entire; subcaudals 27, nearly all entire.
The apex consists of 2 tumid rounded whorls of nearly equal size, with a very slight suture. There are 8 whorls in all, of slow and regular increase. The body whorl is small, with a rounded conical base and a smallish snout. The whorls are angularly convex, with a slight contraction into the suture, both at top and bottom of the whorls.
There are also a few finer ones, especially three near the suture, and occasionally some spiral striation is faintly indicated. On the top of the whorl the interspaces are about twice as wide as the threads, but not so wide on the base. The whorls, the periphery and the base are evenly rounded. The suture is distinct and not channelled.
The spiral sculpture shows between the sutures two prominent keels and an anterior smaller one on which the suture is laid. On the body whorl there are about eight minor threads in front of those mentioned, all with wider interspaces. The axial sculpture consists of prominent oblique lines protractively cutting the interspaces. The anal sulcus is shallow, distinct and close to the suture.
The posterior fontanelle (lambdoid fontanelle, occipital fontanelle) is a gap between bones in the human skull (known as fontanelle), triangular in form and situated at the junction of the sagittal suture and lambdoidal suture. It generally closes in 6–8 weeks from birth. The cranial point in adults corresponding the fontanelle is called 'lambda' A delay in closure is associated with congenital hypothyroidism.
The suture strongly margined. The whorls are angulated by a row of large nodules. The spire is high. The anal sinus is moderately deep.
The suture is impressed. The body whorl measures more than half the length of the shell. The aperture is suboval. The columella is straight.
Gundolficeras differs from its partly contemporary, but slightly older relative Falcitornoceras in the details of the suture and in sometimes having an open umbilicus.
The almost horizontal suture is slightly channeled. The sinuous growth lines are slightly opisthocline (i.e. following the growth direction) . The sculpture is almost smooth.
The shell contains four whorls. They are rounded and distinctly and closely spirally grooved. The umbilical region is smooth. The suture is scarcely impressed.
Plagiocephaly refers to the shape and not the condition. The condition is craniosynostosis. The lambdoidal suture articulates with the occipital bone and parietal bones.
The 2½ whorls are convex. The suture is very distinct though not deep. The spire is a little raised. The aperture is nearly circular.
The Caledonian orogeny united the northern and southern portions of present-day Great Britain. The Iapetus Suture runs from the Solway Firth to Lindisfarne.
The epicarp has a smooth surface marked with lip-like structures, with a suture line which extends for the full length of the fruit.
The 12-13 whorls of the teleoconch are flattened. The suture is impressed and shows a margin.G.W. Tryon, Manual of Conchology vol. VIII p.
They must be hypoallergenic and avoid the "wick effect" that would allow fluids and thus infection to penetrate the body along the suture tract.
The suture is quite deeply impressed. The aperture is narrow and elliptical. The columella is truncated anteriorly. The outer lip is smooth and thin.
The protoconch is acute. The spire has the outlines nearly rectilinear. It contains six whorls, subangular, with a moderately impressed suture. The aperture is narrow.
The columella is lilac. The apex is salmon buff. The shell contains eleven whorls, including three on the protoconch. The suture is impressed and undulating.
The suture is distinct, not marginate. The aperture is lunate. The anal sulcus is very wide and shallow. The outer lip is thin, arcuately protractivc.
J.P. Smith,1932. Lower Triassic Ammonoids of North America. US Geological Survey Professional Paper 167. Suture ceratitic with deep asymmetric saddles and broad serrated lobes.
The spire is low, sides convex. The suture is shallow, adpressed. The shell has 6 whorls, that are rapidly increasing. The last whorl is rounded.
Persistent frontal sutures should not be confused with supranasal sutures (a small zig-zag shaped suture located at and/or immediately superior to the glabella).
The suture is deeply impressed. The circular aperture is oblique. The outer lip is simple and acute. The inner lip is arcuate, a trifle reflexed.
The suture is impressed. The body whorl is obtusely angular at the middle. It shows 16-18 spiral granose lirae. The small granules are close.
The apex is flattish. The small nucleus is not differentiated. The whorls, after the second, are nearly equal in diameter. The suture is much appressed.
39:3 (2002). Geologists have offered several explanations for what the structure is: failed Proterozoic rift, intraplate collision zone, Proterozoic suture, or continental collision zone.
The adult fly emerges from a circular suture between the anterior spiracles and halfway through the abdominal sections, which completely separate as the adult emerges.

These are convex and rounded. The body whorl is equal to about two fifths of the spire. The apex is twisted. The suture is distinct.
The shell is subulate, opaque, smooth, and not polished. The whorls of the teleoconch are flattened. The suture is well- impressed. The aperture is subquadrangular.
If the shoulder has to be ground mesially or distally, this must be done during implantation but before closure of the soft tissue by suture.
The entire space between the keel and the preceding suture may be said to form the anal fasciole, the wide arcuate sulcus being situated a little way in front of the suture. The base of the shell is neatly rounded and contracted at the beginning of the siphonal canal. The outer lip is thin, sharp and much produced in front. The inner lip is slightly erased.
The apex is broken. The shell contains probably 9-10 whorls, rather narrow, somewhat hollowed on the shoulder below the suture. Below the keel their profile-line is straight, but contracted to the suture below. The base (whose upper limit is defined by a very slight angulation) is conical, drawn out pretty much in the axial line into a long, narrowish, cylindrical, strong, and slightly reverted aperture.
The suture is distinct. The sculpture is composed of numerous tine sharp spiral threads with slightly wider interspaces, crossed by somewhat less prominent transverse threads, making a very regular reticulation over the whole surface. At most of the intersections a small point elevates itself, giving a peculiarly rasp-like appearance to the dull unpolished surface of the shell. The notch is shallow, situated at the suture.
The seven whorls are much flattened, with the suture scarcely impressed. The upper whorls are coronated by two, and the bodywhorl by three, revolving, strongly nodulous ribs, along which the conical, often acute nodules are very regularly arranged. The first of these rows of nodules is just below the suture. The second is separated from the first by a wide, flat, or slightly concave interspace.
The lower whorls are unevenly swollen with a varix and bulge over the suture. The suture then descends in an uneven spiral. The parietal callus is lined with a narrow, dark inner lip, covered with regularly spaced, brown, rib-like plicae. The outer lip is scalloped but less projected and toothed with about 10 pairs of rib-like teeth superimposed on square, dark brown blotches.
Four of those are arranged on the dorso- lateral part of the elytron. The two anterior spots form an roughly half-moon shaped oval with the convexity directed towards the suture of the elytron. The two posterior ones make a more irregular shape, formed by the intersection of two circular spots. Finally, the fifth spot covers the length of the elytron's suture, enlarging towards the posterior stretch.
The Notch of Rivinus is a small defect in the posterior edge of the bony annular tympanic ring. The defect is located just superior to the tympano- mastoid suture line in the posterior ear canal. Following identification of the spine of Henle it is possible to follow the tympano-mastoid suture line medially towards the annular ring. At this location the Chorda Tympani Nerve is often identified.
Its suture with the lacrimal bone is straight. The frontals are roughly triangular and have the 'internasal' foramen between them (not between the nasals). They have long posterior processes which suture with the forked processes of the parietals in a star shape, hence the specific name stellans. The postfrontal contacts the nasal over a short distance, and as in Ophthalmosaurus, has no Y-shaped anterior process.
The cancellation of the body whorl is strongly developed, so that the pittings between the cross- ridges are deep and striking. The suture is deep and channelled. The uppermost of the six revolving lirae borders the channelled suture, and the umbilicus is encompassed by a swollen ridge, which is in addition to the six line referred to. The microscopic striae are seen upon the lirae.
The Gulf snapping turtle is a large, brown to dark brown, short-necked turtle. Its carapace, or upper shell, reaches in straight carapace length; it has an undulating suture between the hemeral and pectoral shields in the white plastron, or under shell. The undulating (rather than straight) suture in the plastron distinguishes it from the northern snapping turtle (Elseya dentata).Woinarski, John (compiler) (May 2006).
They are lacking on the columella and near the apex. The anal fasciole is concave, sculptured with 5 to 7 crowded lirae, which become most prominent directly in front of the suture. The sinus is deep, rather narrow, and is set a little nearer to the periphery than to the posterior suture. The aperture is narrow, ovate and terminates in a short emarginate siphonal canal.
Its shell is relatively small for the genus, around 11 mm in length, slender shaped, thick, solid and semi-fusiform, early four whorls elate, acuminate spire, well swollen periphery. The body whorl is half of the shell length, with a protoconch of about 1.5 whorls. The teleoconch consists of around 5 to 6 convex whorls with a tall spire. Narrow axial ribs reach from suture to suture.
The spire is conic. The five whorls are a little tumid below each suture, and with a narrow ledge or margin, marked off by an impressed line, above each suture. This peripheral ledge gives the body whorl a rather prominent keel. The surface is polished, but shows quite prominent, spaced, impressed growth lines, and under a lens is all over very densely minutely spirally striate.
The size of the shell varies between 7 mm and 12 mm. The thin, perforate shell has an orbicular-conoid shape with irregularly transversely costate striae. The color is various, it is purplish, maculate with whitish, orange-yellow or rose-red, with traces of clear spots at the suture, or else purple-red with white flecks. The 5 whorls are moderately convex, separated by a distinct suture.
On each half a primary ossification center appears about the end of the second month of the fetus. Primary ossification center extends to form the corresponding half of the vertical part (squama) and horizontal part (orbital part) of the frontal bone. At birth the frontal bone contains two portions, separated by the metopic (frontal) suture. Metopism is the condition of having a persistent metopic suture.
Tertiary spirals are intercalated between the preceding groups in more specialized species. Ribs are regular transverse foldings of the shell, which generally extend from the suture to suture. They are usually spaced uniformly and crossed by the spirals. In specialized types, when a shoulder angle is formed, they become concentrated as nodes upon this angle, disappearing from the shoulder above and the body below.
But there are also lens shaped bodies consisting of eclogite and garnet amphibolite. The shearing occurred from the end of the Devonian to Carboniferous. The zone is a suture between different terranes (CIZ and OMZ) making up the Iberian Massif. The boundary or suture between the Ossa Morena Zone and the South Portuguese Zone is formed by an ophiolite: the Beja-Acebuches Ophiolite Complex (BAOC).
The length of the shell attains 6.5 mm, its diameter 2 mm. (Original description) The small, thin, slender shell is lucid white It shows a large swollen protoconch of 1½ whorl, followed by nearly four subsequent whorls. The suture is distinct, not appressed or marginated. The fasciole in front of it is obscure but gives rise to a distinct shoulder not far from the suture.
Growth lines and constrictions are forming a sinus on the venter. Suture is goniatitic and has long narrow ventral lobes, while lateral lobes are deeply pointed. It is similar to Neoganides, with which it shares shape of shell and suture. Differences are in ventrolateral sulcus, which is on each side and external lateral lobes are more pointed and deeper in the case of Aulacaganides.
The Wopmay orogen can be subdivided into (east to west): a passive continental margin, the Wopmay fault zone, the Great Bear magmatic zone, and the Hottah terrane. The passive margin developed around 1970–1890 Ma on-top of the Slave Craton. The Wopmay fault zone is probably a suture between the Slave craton and the Hottah terrane. No Archean crust have been found west of this suture.
The suture is simple, narrowly margined. The body whorl is roundly contracted at the base. The aperture is elongate-oval, opening widely into a short siphonal canal. The outer lip is simple, thin, crenulated outside; with a deep rounded posterior sinus near the suture, having a thickened and slightly erect edge, with a shallow excavation anteriorly where it is pinched to form the canal.
The length of the remaining whorls of the holotype is 8 mm, the diameter 4 mm. (Original description) The small, white shell is decollate, but consists originally of five or more whorls exclusive of the protoconch. The first two remaining intact whorls (the first is eroded) are axial]y sculptured with about 20 close-set obliquely protractive rounded ribs cut by sharp grooves which make of the interspaces rounded nodules, the second row from the preceding suture being more prominent and forming a shoulder to the whorl. There are five of these rows on the spire, and the ribs they represent extend from suture to suture.
The lower part shows rather strong, rounded ribs from suture to suture, about 10 on penultimate whorl, fainter in the excavation, which latter as well as the ribs disappear on body whorl, with the exception of a strong rib behind the peristome. This latter whorl is moreover slightly compressed, with a trace of a second rib or indistinct varix on the left side of the whorl, which is contracted below, with a few indistinct spiral lirac near the base. The whole shell is covered with very fine growth-striae. The aperture is short, oval, with a broad, rather deep, rounded sinus at the suture, narrower by a strong columellar tubercle.
Child with Crouzon syndrome showing characteristic facial features. Cranial sutures A defining characteristic of Crouzon syndrome is craniosynostosis, which results in an abnormal head shape. This is present in combinations of: turricephaly, frontal bossing, trigonocephaly (fusion of the metopic suture), brachycephaly (fusion of the coronal suture), dolichocephaly (fusion of the sagittal suture), plagiocephaly (unilateral premature closure of lambdoid and coronal sutures), oxycephaly (fusion of coronal and lambdoidal sutures), and complex craniosynostosis (premature closure of some or all sutures). Exophthalmos (bulging eyes due to shallow eye sockets after early fusion of surrounding bones), hypertelorism (greater than normal distance between the eyes), and psittichorhina (beak-like nose) are also very common features.
The Suture may be ammonitic, ceratitic, or goniatitic. In the present classification of the Haloritidae, the family is divided into two subfamilies, the Haloritinae and the Juvavitinae. In the older classification of the Treatise (1957) the Haloriitidae was divided into three subfamilies, the Haloritinae, with spiral ornamentation weak or absent, the Sagenitinae with prominent spiral ornamentation and a more subdivided suture reassigned to the Pinacocerataceae as the Sagenitidae, and the Episculitinae with a simplified suture and uncoiling of the body chamber The present Haloritinae includes Halorites, the type, Amarassites, Gnomohalorites, Paraguembelites, and Parajuvavites. The Juvatinae includes Juvavites, type, Dimorphites, and Gonionotites, included in the original Haloritinae.
The spiral sculpture consists of two strong cords with wider interspaces and a thud on which the suture is laid and which forms the margin of the base. There is also a small thread between the suture and the posterior cord and on the body whorl a similar thread in the interspaces. On the base there are six or seven smaller closer cords separated by obscurely channeled interspaces between the verge of a narrow umbilicus and the basal margin. The axial sculpture consists of (on the penultimate whorl about 20) retractive riblets extending from suture to periphery, with wider interspaces, slightly nodulous at the intersections with the spiral cords.
The line where each septum meets the outer shell is called the suture or suture line. Like other true ammonites, Baculites have intricate suture patterns on their shells that can be used to identify different species. One notable feature about Baculites is that the males may have been a third to a half the size of the females and may have had much lighter ribbing on the surface of the shell. The shell morphology of Baculites with slanted striations or ribbing, similarly slanted aperture, and more narrowly rounded to acute keel- like venter points to its having had a horizontal orientation in life as an adult.
The suture is distinct and deeply impressed. The longitudinal sculpture shows about 14 elevated ribs. The spiral sculpture consists of many striae, mostly below the carina.
The protoconch is minute, subglobular and transparent. The suture is distinct, more or less channeled. The spire is short but distinctly turreted. The aperture is narrow.
The suture is slightly openly impressed. The round aperture is very oblique. The outer lip is thin and sharp. It is shortly but rather widely cleft.
There are four or five ventricose whorls. The suture is deeply impressed. The base is moderately conical, imperforate or minutely umbilicated. The aperture is very oblique.
The spire is conical. The apex is rather blunt. The apical whorl is rather prominent, reddish, corneous or purplish, smooth and rounded. The suture is impressed.
5% to 15% of the time more than one suture is involved; this is referred to as 'complex craniosynostosis' and is typically part of a syndrome.
There are six whorls, convex, the last one rounded and convex beneath. The suture is impressed. The aperture is oblique. The outer wall is moderately thick.
The periphery and the baseof the shell are rounded. The suture is impressed. The subcircular aperture is a little angled above. The continuous peristome is sharp.

It is separated from the main body of the animal (the idiosoma) by a flexible section of the cuticle called the circumcapitular furrow or circumcapitular suture.
Most end with a tubule on the ventrolateral shoulder. The suture is ammonitic. The deeply incised sutural elements are asymmetric, including the double-pronged ventral lobe.
The suture is moderate and distinct. The umbilical chink is very narrow or is lacking. The columellar tooth is strong.G.W. Tryon (1889), Manual of Conchology vol.
The white shell is solid, opaque and rather glossy. Its length measures 3.75 mm. The teleoconch contains six whorls. The suture is broad and very deep.
The seven whorls are transversely ploughed. The suture is simple. The aperture is contracted, linear and a little oblique. The siphonal canal is of medium length.
I snipped off the tumor with the Metzenbaum scissors, fulgurated its base, and proceeded to help him sew die bladder back together with some resorbable suture.
This was an improvement to the 90% mortality rate in the pre-surgical era. His surgery is considered the worldwide first successful direct suture of the heart.
There is a deep, broad groove at the suture. The aperture is ovate. The siphonal canal is rather produced. The body whorl is shorter than the spire.
The outer lip is rather incrassate. The anal sinus is well expressed, just below the suture. The columellar margin is straight. The siphonal canal is very short.
The length of the shell attains 7.5 mm, its diameter 2.5 mm. The thin shell has a long spire. It contains 8 whorls. The suture is impressed.
The suture is deep. The ovate aperture measures ⅓ the length of shell. The outer lip is thickened and conspicuously dentate within. The sinus is broad, conspicuous, posterior.
The suture is impressed. The body whorl is ventrose. The subovate aperture measures half the length of the shell. The columella is slightly twisted at its base.
The suture is deep. The shell has distinct radial growth lines. The umbilicus is narrow and 1/8 of the shell diameter. The aperture is obliquely depressed.
Antennae not borne on raised tubercles. Subantennal groove or cavity on head absent or very weakly developed. Frontoclypeal suture absent or incomplete. Clypeus is not laterally emarginate.

Surgical repair is usually done by 10-0 prolene suture taking the base of iris avulsion and suturing it to the scleral spur and ciliary body junction.
Wide inter-orbital region and narrow inter-temporal region. A blunt snout and a short median suture between nasals. Pineal foramen surrounded by parietals. Preparietal bone absent.
The diagnostic suture has a small median saddle in the ventral lobe which in turn has a smaller shallow lobe. Those in other clydonautilitids are less complex.
It has a pale flesh color. It contains six whorls, including a minute subglobular nucleus. The suture is distinct, not appressed. The whorls are only moderately rounded.
The convex whorls are encircled by stride. The body whorl is large, scarcely angulated. The base of the shell is a little convex. The suture is distinct.
The sculpture of these adult shells is scarcely distinguishable. Young shells, however, show the sculpture. The suture is well marked. The (more than 12) whorls are subscalar.
The eight whorls of the teleoconch are convex. They contain a deep suture. They are longitudinally and spirally ribbed. The interstices of the decussations appear as pitted.
The spiral sculpture consists of a thickened band between the suture and the somewhat constricted anal fasciole. At the shoulder there is a blunt angulation, in front of which are two obscure threads followed by a more distinct thread on which the suture is laid. On the body whorl in front of the angulation there are about 18 threads growing smaller and more close-set anteriorly. There is no siphonal fasciole.
The whorls are rounded. The region of the fasciole in front of the closely appressed suture is flattish, constricted, and polished. The transverse sculpture in front of the fasciole (on the penultimate whorl) consists of about fourteen short, stout, obliquely set riblets, which coronate the whorl and do not reach the suture in front. The spiral sculpture consists of rather narrow shallow grooves, separating slightly raised flattish, rather wider, threads.
The petrosquamous suture is a cranial suture between the petrous portion and the squama of the temporal bone. It forms the Koerner's septum. The petrous portion forms the medial component of the osseous margin, while the squama forms the lateral component. The anterolateral portion (squama) arises from the mesenchyme at 8 weeks of embryogenesis while the petromastoid portion develops later from a cartilaginous center at 6 months of fetal development.
The last contracts rather rapidly into a short conical base, running out into a narrow, straight, somewhat one-sided, and not very long snout. The suture is invisible but for the marginating threads above and below it. The aperture is club-shaped, being pointedly ovate above, and running out below into a well-marked siphonal canal. The outer lip is concave below the suture and angulated at the keel.
They have a long slightly drooping shoulder defined by the keel, below which they are cylindrical, with a slight contraction into the lower suture. The body whorl is small, with a contracting scarcely convex base, prolonged into a small, but distinct, and somewhat cylindrical snout. The suture is small, slightly impressed. The aperture is small, narrow, slightly pear-shaped, oblique, triangular above, prolonged into the small siphonal canal below.
The succeeding two whorls are similarly sculptured, the axial ridges and spiral threads being more numerous. The body whorl shows low axial ridges, sinuous near the suture and becoming obsolete at the periphery, the whole overridden by close regular spiral threads. Colour : Dark buff, a faint purple spiral band on the lower edge of the spire whorls. On the bodv whorl are sinuous brown marks near the suture.
These tubercles are protruding, rounded, very regularly arranged and give the whorls a streamlined appearance. There are 15 plicae on the penultimate whorl, 20 on the body whorl These plicae do not extend to the suture. On the body whorl however, they continue downward in an obsolete manner. The infra-sutural zone, is wide, sloping, with very arched growth lines, a little more developed close to the suture.
The length of the shell attains 18.6 mm, its diameter 4.5 mm. (Original description) The solid, narrow shell has an elongate-fusiform shape. It consists of 9 whorls, including the protoconch of 3 convex smooth whorls, with a deep impressed suture. The -whorls of the spire are convex, roundly angled below the middle in the early whorls, above it in the later, slightly adpressed below the linear suture.
The suture is appressed, distinct, the whorl in front of it is constricted. The spiral sculpture consists of (on the body whorl) a sharp thread or low keel above the periphery, two more at the periphery. On the anterior one the suture is laid and it also forms the anterior boundary of the dark coloration. On the base are about five less conspicuous threads; all these have much wider interspaces.
There are six above the angulation, and two below it. Fine accremental striae can be seen under the lens. The suture is distinct, linear, undulating, convex between the ribs. The body whorl is oblong with two median rounded carinae, the upper larger, more prominent, forming the angulation (in the spire whorls), the lower producing the upper margin of the suture, tuberculated by the axial ribs, which cease at the lower one.
The spiral sculpture on the spire consists of three or more threads, with subeqiial interspaces, in the space between the periphery and the succeeding suture, and on the body whorl on the base about twenty flatter spirals with narrower interspaces. Most of the threads are swollen where they pass over the ribs. The aperture is wide and short. The anal fasciole is deep and rounded, not quite adjacent to the suture.
The teleoconch contains 8 broad, short whorls that are regularly increasing, the last rather large, with a sloping slightly concave shoulder, straight below the keel. At the top of each whorl there is a slight collar, which gives the effect of a slight canaliculation to the suture. The base of the shell is somewhat swollen, prolonged into a short broad unequal-sided beak. The suture is strong and slightly canaliculated.
The suture is distinct, marginate, where the riblets are conspicuous as at the periphery and continued to the suture in front. There are also fine, well-marked lines of growth, all crossed by close-set, low, spiral threads which become coarser and slightly more distinct on the siphonal canal. The anal sulcus is deep, wide and rounded. The outer lip in front of it is strongly protractive, thin and simple.
They are slightly concave and shouldered in the sinus-area, which is bordered by a faint angulation, below which they are slightly tumid, without any contraction into the inferior suture. The body whorl, which is rather small, has a conical base produced into a broadish, triangular, one-sided aperture. The suture is slight, inasmuch as the inferior whorl laps up on the one above. But there is an appreciable constriction.
The shell contains 9 whorls in all, slightly straight and sloping below the suture, convexly rounded above, cylindrical below. The body whorl is a little tumid, with a rounded base produced into a short, broad, lopsided snout. The suture is very slight, as the inferior whorl laps up on the one above it, but it is defined by the curve of the whorls. The aperture is oval, pointed above.
The suture is distinct The periphery of the upper whorls is nearer the succeeding than the preceding suture. The anal fasciole is constricted but crossed by the ribs. The spiral sculpture consists of (on the upper whorls 4 or 5, on the body whorl about 14) strong cords with narrower groove-like interspaces, extending from the fasciole to the siphonal canal. The cords are not swollen where they cross the ribs.
The suture is appressed and obscure. The spiral sculpture is apparently absent. The axial sculpture shows (on the body whorl six) strong, stout, wavelike ribs, continuous up the spire, with wide interspaces, and practically vertical0 The surface appears to be smooth but as the specimen is slightly beach worn some minute sculpture may have disappeared. The suture is undulated by the ribs, there is no anal fasciole perceptible.
The small apex is a little flattened, with the embryonic 1¼ whorl barely projecting in the middle. The spire contains 6–7 whorls, the last is of rapid increase, full rounded and a little tumid. The preceding ones are a little roundedly shouldered below the suture, flat on the contour, angulated at the carina, and slightly contracted into the suture. The apical whorls are simply rounded and longitudinally ribbed.
The zygomatic bone itself has four processes, namely the frontosphenoidal, orbital, maxillary and temporal processes. The frontosphenoidal process is thick and serrated. The cranial suture between the frontal and zygomatic bone is found here. On its orbital surface, just within the orbital margin and about 11 mm below the zygomaticofrontal suture is a tubercle of varying size and form, but present in 95 per cent of skulls (Whitnall 43).
The suture is impressed and undulating. The aperture is oblique, narrowly ovate, angled above and produced below into a short broad siphonal canal, slightly oblique and not emarginate at the base. The outer lip is strengthened by the last rib, flatly convex, sharp and with a shallow rounded sinus a little below the suture. The columella is faintly arcuate, vertical, drawn out to a narrow ridge towards the siphonal canal.
The posterior margin of the whorl is closely appressed against the preceding volution but not conspicuously elevated. The suture line is feeble, and undulatory. The aperture is narrow, widening a little behind by reason of the feeble expansion of the outer lip and the slightly less feeble constriction on the inner. The siphonal notch is broad, shallow, and placed perceptibly nearer to the periphery than to the posterior suture.
The Mianlue suture zone was evolved from Mianlue oceanic basin, which was closed at the Mid-Triassic and developed into suture zone. Therefore, ophiolite representing oceanic setting and volcanic rock indicating subduction zone was discovered there. As the ocean closed and blocks collided towards each other, basalts were metamorphosed into meta- basaltic rock. From data provided, rocks mentioned above can be dated back to 345 to 200 million years ago.
The Coronal suture The most common and defining features of BGS are craniosynostosis and radial ray deficiency. The observations of these features allow for a diagnosis of BGS to be made, as these symptoms characterize the syndrome. Craniosynostosis involves the pre-mature fusion of bones in the skull. The coronal craniosynostosis that is commonly seen in patients with BGS results in the fusion of the skull along the coronal suture.
Discophyllitidae are discoidal, generally evolute Phylloceratina from the Upper Triassic, derived from the Ussuritidae, in which the principal saddles of the suture have bifurcated or trifurcated endings, described as being di- or triphyllic. Discophyllitid shells are rather similar to those of the ancestral Ussuritidae and are distinguished primarily by the more complex suture. The Discophyllitidae provided the source for the Jurassic Phylloceratidae and Juraphyllitidae. Four genera are recognized and described.
The fault develops on the suture zone between the Patagonian terranes and western Gondwana. In a broader sense, the Huincul Fault Zone is a belt of deformation, thus it is the suture zone itself. The first and main deformation phase along the fault zone begun in the Toarcian age continued through the Valanginian age before vanishing in Albian times. Strike-slip movement along the fault began in the Toarcian.
The basal lip is convex, slightly effuse, and smooth within. The upper third of the columella is concave, the rest is straight, and obliquely truncate below. The callus at the base partly borders the umbilicus and is attached to the columella along a vertical groove. The shell is purple-brown, with somewhat oblique, axial, creamy, rhomboidal flames, extending from suture to suture, and nearly equalling the foundation colour in area.
It is a medium sized dragonfly with black thorax, marked with greenish-yellow. There is a sinuous dorsal stripe which is formed by the union of an ante-humeral with a humeral stripe. Sides of the thorax are yellow, marked with a narrow, black stripe on the postero-lateral suture and on the lower half of the anterior suture. Wings are transparent, slightly tinted with saffron at bases.
Desmoschisis is asexual reproduction in dinoflagellates which the parent cell divides to produce two daughter cells, each daughter retaining half the parent theca, at least temporarily. During desmoschisis, the theca undergoes fission along a predetermined suture between thecal plates. The fission suture is oblique, usually from the top left to the bottom right (as in oblique binary fission).FENSOME R.A., TAYLOR F.J.R., NORRIS G., SARJEANT W.A.S., WHARTON D.I. & WILLIAMS G.L. 1993.
The length of the shell attains 60 mm. (Original description) The very coarse and strong, long, narrow shell has with a concave conical base. It shows huge hunchy ribs, and coarse spiral threads. Its longitudinal sculpture is characterized by six enormous bunchy oblique ribs on each whorl, which die out on the base and at the sinus below the suture, but reach the suture at the bottom of the upper whorls.
In the upper whorls the ribs are alternately brown and white, and the lowest liration, which is in conjunction with the suture and encircles the middle of the body whorl, is wholly white. The fifth and sixth lirations on the last, reckoning from the suture, are rather far apart, and the longitudinal ribs between them are uniformly brown. Smith E.A. (1882). Diagnoses of new species of Pleurotomidae in the British Museum.
Plastron is angulate laterally in the young. The anterior and posterior lobes are rather narrow and shorter than the width of the bridge, truncate anteriorly and are openly notched posteriorly. The longest median suture is between the abdominals and the shortest is between the gulars, which equals about one half that between the humerals. The suture between gulars and humerals forms an obtuse angle, as does that between humerals and pectorals.
The apex consists of two glossy, tumid, rounded whorls of nearly equal size, and with a very slight suture. There are 8 whorls in all, of slow and regular increase.. They are shouldered above and almost cylindrical below the keel. The last is small, contracts from the keel, and has a short, conical, hardly tumid base prolonged into a short small snout. The suture is very slightly impressed and rather oblique.
Shell description: The shell is sinistral, with a very slender spire, with nearly straight sides. The shell has 11–12¾ whorls. The uppermost whorls are moderately convex and separated by an indented suture, the lower ones increasingly more flattened and separated by an increasingly more shallow suture.

A feeble spiral is also introduced near the end of the first whorl directly behind the anterior suture line and within half a turn, another directly in front of the posterior suture, neither one of them attaining any prominence. The adult whorls are bicarinate, the spiral directly behind the periphery increasing in strength until it is almost or quite as elevated as the peripheral keel, from which it is separated by a rather narrow, concave interspiral area. This is sculptured with protractive incrementals and in places a fortuitous spiral threadlet. The area between the suture and the posterior keel is strongly concave, sculptured with 2 faint spirals, both of them introduced near the beginning of the conch, the one a little in front of the suture, the other at an equal distance behind the posterior carina, and between them a smoothly concave interspace striated with strongly and symmetrically arcuate incrementals and a few very faint spiral lirae.
The columella is smooth and slightly twisted. The outer lip in adult specimens has a thin edge from the sinus to the anterior lower margin of the siphonal canal, with a well-marked varicose thickening behind, extending from the anterior canal up to and then round the sinus to the suture, where it thins out in a pad-like form on the inner lip. The outer lip is somewhat effuse anteriorly. The colour of the shell is white to creamy, with a pale or faded violet-brown broad band on the anterior slope of the body whorl, and a faint narrow band near the suture, and usually just discernible above the anterior suture of the penultimate whorl.

This is accomplished by passing a suture between the muscular process of the arytenoid cartilage and the thyroid cartilage. This rotates the arytenoid cartilage and adducts the vocal cord.
The other whorls show six ribs, continuous with each other and broadened. They are impressed at the shallow suture. The aperture is oblong. The outer lip is very wide.
The colour of the shell is pearly white. The suture is marked by the uppermost rib. The spire is turreted. The seven whorls are somewhat convex and gradually enlarging.

When two bones join together, they are said to "articulate". If the two bones have a fibrous connection and are relatively immobile, then the joint is called a "suture".
Native titanium (IMA2010-044) is a natural occurrence of titanium. Its type locality is the Luobusa mining district, Luobusha fault zone (Yarlung Zangbo suture zone), Qusum County, Shannan, Tibet.
The shell is horny brown, weakly striated. The cervix is more prominently striated. The shell has 11–13 whorls with white suture. The cervix is with weak basal keel.
Plastral bones The epiplastron is trapezoidal, shows a roughly transverse suture with the hyoplastron, an anteromedially directed contact with the entoplastron, and a sagittal contact with the other epiplastron.
The holotype fossil has a flat to low spired shell with 6.25 whorls preserved and a diameter of , though the adult whorls are not preserved. The spire is low, with the outer whorls being higher than the inner whorls, giving a sunken look to the shell center. Numerous fine suture lines curve across most of the shell, fading as the lines approach the keel. Each of the suture lines curve outward toward the aperture.
The body whorl shows a cord at the suture and on the other side of the anal fasciole about five elevated keels with subequal interspaces, more adjacent on the base with about as many more smaller and closer threads on the anterior region. The suture is appressed and obscure. The anal fasciole is concave, not spirally striated The axial sculpture consists of rather close sharp striae which cut the spirals. The aperture is narrow.
The suture is distinct and not appressed. The anal fasciole is narrow, constricted and separated from the suture by an obscure ridge. In front of the fasciole is an undulated rounded ridge from which extend obliquely protractive obscure riblets more or less obsolete on the body whorl, probably stronger and more distinct on the spire when not eroded. There is also very obscure spiral grooving with much wider interspaces on the base.
Their profile consists of two straight lines meeting in the keel which bisects the whorls; above is a slowly sloping shoulder, and below a gradual contraction to the suture. The body whorl is scarcely convex on the conical base, which contracts with great regularity to the long, nearly equal-sided snout. The suture is fine, linear, but well defined. The aperture is club-shaped, being rhomboidal above, with a long narrow siphonal canal below.
He describes how it was unaffected by touch and how the heart made a rolling motion, made possible by its beating. He describes the muscle as hard as a stone when the blood is pumped out (systole) and fill up with blood again (diastole). Rehn began at the left corner of the wound, with a needle and silk, and started to suture the heart. By the third suture, the bleeding had stopped completely.
The length of the shell varies between 5.5 mm and 10.5 mm. (Original description) The shell is small, sub-fusiform, too short ovate. It contains about five or six turreted, flattened whorls, which are angularly shouldered just below the suture. The subsutural band arises abruptly from the suture, nearly at right angles, and its surface is flat or slightly eoncave, marked by strongly recurved lines of growth, but mostly without spiral lines.
The length of the shell attains 2.8 mm, its diameter 1.45 mm. (Original description) The small, white, thin shell consists of 5 whorls, including the prominent conical protoconch of 2 convex elate whorls, with exserted apex. The whorls of the spire have a corded obtuse angulation, with a slope from the upper suture, somewhat constricted towards the lower. The body whorl shows a second angulation starting from the suture at the aperture.
The length of the shell attains 4 mm, its diameter 1.5 mm. (Original description) The delicate, white shell contains 5 whorls, including a rather blunt scarcely mamillate protoconch of 2 convex whorls, with 7 spiral lirae, ending abrupthly at the first axial rib. The whorls of the spire are gradate, subconcavely sloping below the suture, with a sharp lira at the edge of the gradation. The whorls contract towards the lower suture.
The shell contains 7–8 whorls, of regular increase, with a drooping shoulder, a double carination, and a marked contraction to the inferior suture. The body whorl is very regular in form, with a slightly contracted base, from which projects a small triangular one-sided aperture. The suture is slightly impressed, flatly but minutely marginated below. The aperture is oval, angulated above, and prolonged into a rather broad and longish siphonal canal below.
The length of the shell attains 22.3 mm. (Original description) The light but strong, porcellaneous shell is angulated, tuberculately ribbed, spiralled and subscalar. It has a high conical spire, chestnut-tipped, with a distinct suture, a longish body whorl, a rounded produced base, and a drawn-out, truncated, one-sided snout. Sculpture: there are crowded unequal lines of growth, which at the suture are gathered into fine distant puckers on the angle of the whorls.
In the earlier whorls there is a slight tumidity below the suture, a slight contraction in the middle, and a slight swelling around the base of each whorl. This last feature is feebly persistent in the later whorls, but otherwise these are flat in profile. There is a sharp carinated angle, and the base of the shell is almost flat, with an angled tubercled umbilical edge. The suture is linear, almost invisible.
The Engonoceratidae first appear in the lower Albian. Origin in the Desheyesitidae has been suggested, but seems unlikely even without the Desheyesitidae being removed to the Ancyloceratina. Derivation from the Hoplitidae seems more likely, from something like Cleoniceras or Aioloceras by simplification and evening out of the suture. The Engoceratidae gave rise in the Late Albian to the Placenticeratidae, which differ in having a more elaborate suture, before dying out in the Early Turonian.
The surangular bone has a deep oval excavation to the rear of its bone shelf and four rear surangular foramina, while other theropods possess at most two. A long narrow groove runs along the suture between the surangular and the prearticular bone. The notch in the suture between the articular and prearticular is pierced by a foramen. The front neck vertebrae possess an additional pneumatic foramen excavating the parapophysis, the lower rib contact.
Absorption is complete by 90 days, and full tensile strength remains for at least 7 days. This eventual disintegration makes it good for use in rapidly healing tissues and in internal structures that cannot be re-accessed for suture removal. Catgut suture has high knot-pull tensile strength and good knot security due to special excellent handling features. It is used for all surgical procedures including general closure, ophthalmic, orthopedics, obstetrics/gynecology and gastrointestinal surgery.
However, this widely used terminology is misleading, as there are many tension-free suture methods that do not use mesh (e.g., Desarda, Guarnieri, Lipton-Estrin, etc.). Evidence suggests that tension-free methods (with or without mesh) often have lower percentage of recurrences and the fastest recovery period compared to tension suture methods. However, among other possible complications, prosthetic mesh usage seems to have a higher incidence of chronic pain and, sometimes, infection.
Trigonocephaly is a result from the premature closure of the metopic suture. Using Virchow's law again to predict the resulting deformity, this fusion will result in a narrow forehead, which is even further emphasized by ridging of the suture. Compensatory growth occurs at both the coronal sutures, thereby pushing the forehead forwards. The resulting shape can best be assessed from a top view again, which will reveal a somewhat triangular form of the head.
Unlike closure of the sagittal or the metopic suture, right and left are not the same in unilateral coronal synostosis. This asymmetry shows in the skull deformity, as well as in the facial deformity and the complications. This time, the skull deformity can only partly be predicted using Virchow's law. Growth is arrested in the plane perpendicular to the fused suture and the forehead is flattened, but only at the ipsilateral side of the head.
The minute rounded embryonic 11 whorls scarcely rise above the level. The six whorls show a rather rapid increase, with a narrow flat shelf below the suture, thence sloping flatly to the shoulder carina, from which point the contour line descends perpendicularly. The base of the shell is inflated at the edge and flattened in the middle. The suture is deeply impressed between the narrow flat shelf below and the overhanging carina above.
The length of the shell varies 6 mm, its diameter 2.5 mm. (Original description) The shell shows seven strongly carinate whorls. The first two form the protoconch, the apical being invariably set at an angle to the main axis of the shell, and the second strongly keeled and delicately ribbed. The five subsequent whorls are adorned with straight longitudinal ribs, extending from suture to suture, and numbering nine on the body whorl.
The protoconch is obtuse and rather elevated, thrice coiled. The initial volution is smooth, polished, largely submerged. The succeeding whorls turn inflated but gradually flattening away from the apex. The final turn of the protoconch is compressed laterally, sculptured with crowded asymmetrically arcuate axial riblets, about 20 to the whorl, extending from the posterior suture to the periphery, which is cut off from the anterior suture by a rather deep linear channel.
The principal ridges are placed near the suture of each whorl, both above and below, leaving a broad flattened space in the middle and a narrow excavated space below the suture, thus imparting a tower- like appearance to the shell. The upper whorls are also marked with numerous short and fine longitudinal ribs, which cross the ridges and make them crenelated. The spire is elevated. The apex is semiglobose, prominent and slightly twisted.
The tricuspid valve septal leaflet is retracted or incised to expose the defect margins. c) Several patch materials are available, including native pericardium, bovine pericardium, PTFE (Gore-Tex or Impra), or Dacron. d) Suture techniques include horizontal pledgeted mattress sutures, and running polypropylene suture. e) Critical attention is necessary to avoid injury to the conduction system located on the left ventricular side of the interventricular septum near the papillary muscle of the conus.
It is a large, bluish green dragonfly with sapphire-blue eyes, bluish-green thorax, and pale reddish-brown abdomen marked with black. Its thorax is pale bluish-green on dorsum with a blackish-brown mid-dorsal carina and turquoise-blue laterally. There is a narrow black stripe over humeral suture and a very broad one over the postero-lateral suture with a narrow black posterior border on metepimeron. Wings are transparent with amber-yellow tint.
300px The B-Lynch suture or B-Lynch procedure is a form of compression suture used in obstetrics. It is used to mechanically compress an atonic uterus in the face of severe postpartum hemorrhage. It was developed by Christopher B-Lynch, a consultant obstetrician and gynaecological surgeon based at Milton Keynes General Hospital, Milton Keynes, Buckinghamshire, England. B-Lynch was born in 1947 in Sierra Leone with the birth name of Christopher Balogun-Lynch.
The next one is the strongest. It renders the whorls carinate about halfway, and a third which seems to run just in the rather conspicuous suture. Moreover, the interstices have more or less numerous fine spirals (numerous in the type, where they quite fill the spaces). This spiral sculpture is crossed by radiating riblets, running straight in an oblique direction, from the suture to the upper spiral, where they form small crenulations.
The five whorls have a strong shoulder and basal angulations. They contain two prominent rounded keels, one next the suture; slightly concave between the suture and upper keel, and a little concave between the keels, The whorls are finely spirally ridged and decussated with exceedingly fine and close oblique longitudinal lines. The sculpture of the shell shows microscopic spiral threads. The convex base of the shell is reticulated with gray and minutely spotted with red.
Sculpture : there are on the earlier whorls about 12, on the last two whorls about 14 elongated tubercles, which project bluntly and slightly above the middle of the whorls, and are obliquely and feebly produced to the inferior suture. They are obsolete on the base. The surface is closely scratched with fine, somewhat unequal lines of growth. Spirals—there is a very slight pad which forms an inferior margin to the suture.
There is a short stripe on the antero- lateral suture and a narrow stripe on the postero-lateral suture. The base of the lateral side is pale yellowish-red. Its wings are transparent; but the fore-wings have a broad blackish-brown fascia, which extends from the node to the pterostigma. The hind-wings have a similar fascia which begins about 5 cells distal to the node and extends to the pterostigma.
The penetration of the India into Eurasia reactivated the suture zone (which is located in the middle of the Tibetan Plateau), causing northward movement of both thrust faults and strike-slip faults. Strike-slip faults were responsible for moving mostly undeformed continental blocks eastward, away from the main convergent zone. Cross section depicting the tectonic evolution of the Bangong suture zone. 1. An oceanic backarc basin forms separating the Amdo basement from the Qiangtang terrane.
The nucleus is rather smooth. It is followed by a whorl, with regular, distinct ribs, slightly angular at some distance from the suture. From there towards the aperture the suture is excavated and the shell bears strong ribs, becoming more distant as they approach the aperture, and become obsolete on the last half whorl. These ribs have blunt spines, bordering the margin of the subsutural excavation, and sharper ones at the periphery.
Sculpture : running below the suture the adult whorls have a spiral thread which ascends into the protoconch for two whorls. This is followed by a broad concave fasciole, margined in turn by a sharp projecting keel which determines an angle in the contour of the shell. Halfway between the major keel and the suture runs a smaller keel. On the body whorl there are about fourteen spirals, gradually diminishing anteriorly, below the major keel.
As a result, the suture is placed deeply within the septum, and the new neck of the suture, which holds the Dacron patch, extends from the septum. Dor explicates this procedure in detail. When the lesion is placed on the posterolateral wall of the heart, a triangular patch is used and stabilized by the posterior mitral annulus. This placement of the lesion allows for mitral valve replacement to be easily conducted by the transventricular approach.
The umbilicus is bordered by a row of coarse, compressed beads, 17 in number. The space between the basal and the umbilical keel contains 5 smooth lirae. The lower whorls have a distinct, nearly horizontal space, from the suture towards the upper keel, with small, radiating plicae, corresponding to the nodules. The spaces above and below the peripheral keel are slightly concave, the suture laying by this construction in a sort of canal.
The entire surface is minutely irregularly vermiculate. The aperture is narrow. The anal sulcus is shallow, rounded, close to the suture. The outer lip is thin, sharp and moderately produced.
The length of the shell varies between 3.5 mm and 7 mm. The five whorls are flattened. They are obsoletely ribbed and transversely striated. The suture shows a raised line.
The outer lip is thin, produced and probably thickened in the perfectly mature adult. The columella and body whorl show no callus. The columella is straight. The suture is appressed.
The suture is shallow. The, whorls are minutely granulated in spiral rows, fifteen in the third whorl.Verco, J.C. 1909. Notes on South Australian marine Mollusca with descriptions of new species.
The anal sulcus is near the suture, wide, shallow. The outer lip is very thin, sharp, simple. The body is polished. The columella is straight, gyrate, obliquely truncate in front.
It can also be associated with fragile X syndrome and Prader–Willi syndrome. Metopic synostosis, the early closure of metopic suture during skull development in children, can also cause hypotelorism.
In surgery, the thread used in sutures is often swaged to an eyeless needle in order to prevent damage as the needle and suture thread are drawn through the wound.
The almost opaque, glossy, white shell is solid. The length measures 5 mm. The protoconch has a helicoid shape. The teleoconch contains six, flattened whorls with a narrow, distinct suture.

The upper surface of the whorls, except the sculpture, is flattened. The suture is distinct, not channelled. The horny operculum is multispiral. The soft parts of the gastropod are whitish.
The suture is characterized by a ventral lobe with two attenuated prongs separated by a high median saddle. The lateral lobe is generally nearly symmetrical, becoming attenuated on mature specimens.
The suture is opaque. The sculpture is much plainer on the body whorl. The inner lip shows a thin deposit of callus. The outer lip is thin, edged with black.

Patients are instructed to call immediately for pain that cannot be controlled with over the counter pain medication or if vision decreases, to not rub the eye and to wear the shield at night for several days after surgery. If 5-FU was used during surgery or if no anti- fibrotic agent was applied, 5 mg 5-FU daily can be injected in the 7–14 postoperative days. In the following days to weeks sutures that hold the scleral flap down can be cut by laser suture lysis to titrate the intraocular pressure down by improving outflow. In laser suture lysis a red light laser and a contact lens are used to penetrate noninvasively the overlying conjunctiva and cut the black nylon suture.
Acute rupture of the distal biceps tendon can be treated nonoperatively with acceptable results, but because the injury can lead to 30% loss of elbow flexion strength and 30-50% loss of forearm supination strength, surgical repair is generally recommended. Complete distal biceps tears are commonly treated with re-attachment of the biceps tendon to its native insertion on the tuberosity of the radius using bone tunnels, suture buttons, or suture anchors. Proximal ruptures of the long head of the biceps tendon can be surgically addressed by two different techniques. Biceps tenodesis includes release of the long head of the biceps tendon off of its insertion on the glenoid and re-attachment by screw or suture anchor fixation to the humerus.
The axial sculpture consists of (on the penultimate whorl about 18) short rounded obliquely protractive ribs with narrower interspaces extending from the succeeding suture to the anterior edge of the anal fasciole and across it as an arcuate thread to the preceding suture. These ribs become more or less obsolete on the body whorl and are feebly if at all produced beyond the periphery. The spiral sculpture between the fasciole and the succeeding suture consists of five cr six equal and equidistant strong threads with subequal interspaces on the penultimate whorl and about a dozen on the base of the body whorl, with smaller and closer ones on the siphonal canal. The angle at the anterior edge of the fasciole is prominent.
The inner surface of the skull-cap is concave and presents depressions for the convolutions of the cerebrum, together with numerous furrows for the lodgement of branches of the meningeal vessels. Along the middle line is a longitudinal groove, narrow in front, where it commences at the frontal crest, but broader behind; it lodges the superior sagittal sinus, and its margins afford attachment to the falx cerebri. On either side of it are several depressions for the arachnoid granulations, and at its back part, the openings of the parietal foramina when these are present. It is crossed in front by the coronal suture and behind by the lambdoid suture, while the sagittal suture lies in the medial plane between the parietal bones.
The horizontal mattress stitch is a suture technique used to close wounds. It everts skin well and spreads tension along the wound edge. This makes it ideal for holding together fragile skin as well as skin under high tension such as the distant edges of a large laceration or as the initial holding suture in complicated repairs. The horizontal mattress is so secure that it can compromise blood supply to the tissue contained within the stitch.
The suture is deep, minutely bimarginate. The aperture is angularly ovate, broadly angled above, contracted below and terminating in a rather long open siphonal canal, which is somewhat turned to the left. The outer lip has its margin not quite perfect, which perhaps lends to the scarcely fully adult appearance of the shell. It is biangled and concave above, between, and below the angles ; sinus broad and moderately deep, extending almost from the suture to the keel.
The color of the shell is white and chalky under a pale greenish yellow periostracum. The suture is distinct, not appressed. The whorls are sloping flatly to the periphery which is marked by a rounded keel with (on the body whorl fifteen) obscure elongated swellings or undulations. The anal fasciole which is close to the suture is marked by lines of growth concavely arcuate, crossed by half a dozen spiral incised lines in the path of the sulcus.
There is other spiral sculpture of somewhat alternated small uniform close-set threads, made minutely scabrous by the intersection of sharp incremental lines and covering the whole surface. The; axial sculpture otherwise consists of six prominent sharp vertical ribs with much wider interspaces, practically continuous up the spire and extending from the suture to the siphonal canal. The aperture is narrow. The anal sulcus is shallow, rounded, not preceded by any obvious fasciole, close to the suture.
Sculpture: Longitudinals—there are fine irregular unequal hair-like lines of growth, which are finely puckered below the suture. Spirals—the whole surface is scored by very slight remote impressed lines, and flat feeble threadlets, which are very irregular, and are interrupted at every biggish line of growth. Just below the suture these are a little feebler, broader, and more regular than elsewhere. The colour is white, under a brownish-yellow, smooth, glossy, thin, membranaceous epidermis.
Longitudinals: there are on the body whorl about 20 short oblique folds, which die out almost immediately. They are highest at their origin below the sinus area, and are parted by flat intervals somewhat broader than they. They diminish in number up the spire, and do not reach the lower suture. There are further obsolete lines of growth, which in the sinus area are strong, and at the suture form sharp little folds parted by wide unequal intervals.
These extend from the suture to the base, and are narrowed and curved like the top of an interrogation point when they pass over the fasciole. The fasciole is constricted rather than excavated, the grooving is closer and finer than on the rest of the shell, and if the shell is colored the fasciole is paler. The whorl is strongly appressed at the suture and a little undulated by the ribs. The aperture is rather narrow.
There are also oblique, rounded, narrow foldings of the surface, which below the sinus area rise into 14 small, narrow, sparse ridges or elongated tubercles and extend to the base. On the earlier whorls these rise into small threadlike ribs which reach the inferior suture. Spirals — the almost membranaceous sinus-area forms a sloping shoulder below the suture, and occupies about one third of the whorl. Below this is the keel, on which the little tubercles rise.
The suture is distinct, appressed; the edge in front thickened and undulated by the sculpture. The anal sulcus is shallow but the fasciole constricted and nearly smooth. The axial sculpture consists of (on the body whorl 16) narrow, nearly straight rounded ribs with subequal or narrower interspaces, crossing the whorls from a slight shoulder in front of the anal fasciole to the succeeding suture and becoming gradually obsolete on the base. The incremental lines are well marked.
When present the suture may have a thickened edge with one thread on the preceding whorl immediately behind it, or it may be quite simple. The axial sculpture consists of (on the penultimate whorl about a dozen) short, subnodulous, slightly oblique ribs which do not cross the anal fasciole and become obsolete on the base, separated by narrower interspaces. The anal fascioleis slightly excavated, smooth except for incremental arcuate lines close to the suture. The aperture is narrow.
On the siphonal canal there are a few finer closet-set threads. The axial sculpture consists of (on the penultimate whorl about 21) rounded somewhat sigmoid ribs, extending from the suture to the base, feeble on the fasciole and the base of the shell and obsolete on the last half of the body whorl. The anal fasciole is wide and shows the arcuate posterior ends of the ribs which do not undulate the suture. The aperture is narrow.
It contains two whorls, the second sharply keeled and passing gradually into the sculpture of the subsequent 8½ whorls. The suture is strongly appressed behind the concave arcuately striated anal fasciole. The axial sculpture shows (on the body whorl 10) prominent protractive ribs extending from the fasciole to the succeeding suture on the spire and somewhat over the periphery on the body whorl. These ribs are knob-like and prominent on the periphery and rapidly diminish forward.
The size of the shell varies between 22 mm and 55 mm. The shell is small with a moderately raised spire. Sutural ramps are adorned with two light spiral lines placed between the middle of each spire and the suture; normally, the spires do not exhibit the carena, however, in some specimens, spires, generally those nearest the apex, are deformed in width, so as to have a rounded outline. The suture is well marked and slightly wavy erratically.
Ethilon is a synthetic nonabsorbable nylon suture manufactured by Ethicon in Cornelia, Georgia. Black in color, it is a monofilament suture that is used frequently for soft-tissue approximation and ligation. Even though it is nonabsorbable, the knot security decreases over time (in vivo) and should not be used where permanent retention is required.Johnson & Johnson, Essential Product Information Practitioners should exercise caution using such material in urinary and biliary tracts, as this can lead to calculi formation.
The length of the shell attains 7.5 mm, its diameter 3 mm. (Original description) The small, very solid shell is ovate-oblong and rounded at either end. It contains six whorls, two forming the low protoconch, convex, a little constricted below the suture, which is deeply impressed. It s colour is vinaceous-buff, sometimes with a white zone its own breadth below the suture, and half-a-dozen evenly spaced narrow white lines on the remainder of the whorl.
The second important suture is called the Peri- Pieninic lineament, roughly copying the structure of Pieniny Klippen Belt. This important dislocation divides the Central and Outer Western Carpathians. Deeper under the sediments it constitutes the boundary between the Central Carpathian basement rocks and the foreland – the Bohemian Massif and East European craton (Podolia platform). Since the 1980s the dividing line has been considered the suture of the Vahic Ocean – the Eastern continuation of the Piemont-Liguria Ocean.
The suture is somewhat deep and undulating. The aperture is narrowly rhomboidal, subchannelled above and terminates in a short, broad, and slightly twisted siphonal canal, not emarginate below. The outer lip is slightly thickened, flatly convex, and a little contracted towards the base, with a shallow rounded sinus below the suture. The columella is lightly curved, narrowed to a fine point at the left margin of the siphonal canal, and excavated on meeting the convex parietal wall.
The suture is with ventral and dorsal lobes, the siphuncle very close to the venter. Carlloceras has a moderately involute shell with a compressed trapezoidal whorl section, nearly flat ventral and lateral areas, and slight dorsal impression. The suture has a ventral saddle and broad lateral lobe and the siphuncle is small and near the venter. Diorugoceras is very involute and smooth, with a compressed whorl section with broad, slightly convex flanks that converge toward a concave venter.
Ventral shoulders are angular, umbilical shoulders broadly rounded. The suture is with broad, deep lateral lobes, the nature of the ventral and lateral lobes is unknown, as is the position of the siphuncle. Phacoceras as a moderately involute, highly compressed, smooth, lenticular shell with an acute venter and widest at the umbilical shoulder; suture with ventral saddle and broad shallow lobes on flanks; siphuncle slightly ventral from center. Genera in ascending stratigraphic order, descriptions from Kummel 1964.
The whorls are finely striate lengthwise with irregular ridges of growth which become fine, close, and rounded at the lip. They are regularly and somewhat distantly grooved with rather broad, flat, shallow, conspicuously striate grooves, one of which is much broader just below the suture, which is distinctly canaliculate. The protoconch is obtuse and smooth, but granulations could have been present as the slightest wear removes them. The aperture is narrow, finely rounded at the suture.
Despite the progress that has been made, many things are still not understood about the suture biology and the exact causative pathways remain yet to be completely understood. Multiple potential causes of premature suture closure have been identified, such as the several genetic mutations that are associated with syndromic craniosynostosis. The cause of nonsyndromic craniosynostosis however, is still greatly unknown. Most likely, a role is played by biomechanical factors, as well as environmental, hormonal and genetical factors.
In medicine, the term cheesewiring or cheesewire effect (used interchangeably) describes any process in which cells or intercellular matrix are dissected or extruded either by the material being pressed through a taut element, or by the tension of a taut element pulling through tissue. The procedure is typically conducted in a surgical setting. Cheesewiring or the cheesewire effect can also describe the process of suture material cutting or tearing through viscera at the time of suture anastomosis and tension.
The early whorls are well rounded, the later ones flat, and broader at the summit than at the suture. The sculpture shows about fourteen strong, almost vertical, scalariform axial ribs on the second, and sixteen quite protractive ones on the succeeding whorls. On the penultimate turn, however, they are less oblique than on those preceding it. These ribs are very strongly developed at the summit of the whorls and render the deeply channeled suture decidedly coronated.
The nucleus is smooth and shining. The suture is well marked by the strong keel, which is also visible on the upper whorls. The sculpture consists on the upper whorls of thin, strongly curved, radiating riblets, which are rather crowded, but much more distant on the lower whorls, and nearly disappear on the last two. These riblets are slightly thickened towards the upper suture and below towards the keel, which is crenulate by their crossing it.
Chakesar is on a formation of a river delta in a valley of 3 km wide by 5 km long at the elevation of 3722 feet above sea level. The village is on suture zone / collision zone between the Indian continent and Eurasian continent. This suture zone is world-famous for hosting precious stone deposits of emeralds, rubies etc. The collision was preceded by a magmatic event known as the Kohistan Magmatic Arc some 30 million years ago.
Except for the mandible, all of the bones of the skull are joined together by sutures—synarthrodial (immovable) joints formed by bony ossification, with Sharpey's fibres permitting some flexibility. Sometimes there can be extra bone pieces within the suture known as wormian bones or sutural bones. Most commonly these are found in the course of the lambdoid suture. The human skull is generally considered to consist of twenty-two bones—eight cranial bones and fourteen facial skeleton bones.
The postnuclear whorls are well rounded. They are marked on the first three turns by a submedian row of distantly spaced cusps. On the succeeding whorls these cusps become elongated into ribs that extend from the sinal sulcus at the summit anteriorly to the suture, becoming weaker toward the suture. Of these ribs, 10 occur upon the first whorl, 12 upon the second and third, and 14 upon the remaining whorls except the body whorl, which has 16.
Two shells of Papillifera bidens, scale bar is in mm. These shells have 10 or 11 whorls and thus a very long suture, with an unusual sculpture of regularly placed papules along the suture itself. Nearly all snail shells (except for the shells of limpets, abalone, sea hares, etc.) can be visualized as a tube of increasing diameter, closed at the small end, and spirally wrapped around a central axis. For more information, see Gastropod shell.
The suture is well impressed. The base of the shell is contracted. The aperture is elongate oval, not constricted into a siphonal canal. The outer lip is simple and convex in outline.
The subsequent whorls are impressed at the suture. The longitudinal ribs are not numerous (about ten in the body whorl). The few spiral lirae are undeveloped. The oblong- quadrate interstices are depressed.
The suture is moderately deep. The body whorl has an inverted cone shape. The dorsum is not prominently humped and lacks a definite varix. The siphonal canal is narrow and moderately deep.
The first whorl is smooth, the second peripherally carinate. The eight subsequent whorls are moderately rounded. The suture is distinct, appressed and somewhat undulate. The anal fasciole is narrow and slightly constricted.
The ovate, conical shell is thick, smooth, and pointed at its summit. Length varies between and . The spire is composed of six or seven slightly distinct whorls. The suture is moderately deep.

The outer lip is incrassate at the last rib and has inwardly 10 lirate teeth. The sinus close to the suture is slightly emarginate. The short siphonal canal is narrow and truncate.
Emerson claimed that expansion was achieved in 2 weeks by separation of maxilla along the Midpalatal suture . Dr. Angell faced much criticism from people in the field of dentistry at that point.
The Tornquist Sea or Tornquist Ocean was a sea located between the palaeocontinents Avalonia and Baltica about . The remains of the sea today form a suture stretching across northern Europe (Tornquist Zone).
The height of the shell is 0.75 mm, its diameter 1.8 mm. The white shell has a scarcely elevated spire. It is widely umbilicated. The three whorls are flattened below the suture.
The anal sulcus is wide, moderately deep, close to the suture. The spiral sculpture is feeble. The axial sculpture consists of moderately strong riblets. The operculum is wide, ovate, with apical nucleus.
The surface is very bright, shining, polished, and smooth except for fine subobsolete concentric lines around the umbilicus. The spire is conoidal. The apex is minute but obtuse. The suture is impressed.
It is often used in conjunction with the absorbable suture Monocryl. Prolene is manufactured by Ethicon Inc., a subsidiary of Johnson and Johnson. The name Prolene is a trademark of Ethicon Inc.
The anal sulcus is shallow, slightly removed from the suture. The fasciole is lightly impressed on the body whorl. The aperture is narrow. The outer lip is thin, sharp and arcuately produced.
The white, shining shell has a smooth sculpture. Its length measures 4–5 mm. The four whorls of the teleoconch are rather convex, subangulated at the suture. The aperture is ovate-elliptic.
The thin shell is transparent and polished. Its length measures 2.5 mm. It is marked with microscopic spiral striae. Its color is very pale yellowish white or white, darker at the suture.
The last whorl is about as long as the spire. The suture is impressed. The spire is conic and acute. Aperture is little oblique, oblong, with a very pale lilac border within.
At each rear corner of the frill a very large osteoderm is present. As it spans the suture between the squamosal and the parietal, this has been called an epiparietosquamosal or "EPS".
Its shell is generally subglobular, variably involute with a rounded whorl section. Sides and venter bear conspicuous ribs. The suture is only slightly sinuous and the siphuncle position is variable.Bernhard Kummel, 1964.
The interior of the aperture is a little lighter: The upper whorls are more or less chalky. The protoconch is smooth and inflated. The later whorls are convex. The suture is deeply impressed.
The spire is high and conical.; Its profile lines are little interrupted by the contraction of the suture. The protoconch is eroded in all the specimens. The shell contains 10 to 11 (?) whorls.
The cords are more or less nodulated by incremental lines and on the spire by obscure ribbing. The suture is distinct. The aperture is narrow and simple. The columella is white and erased.
The length of the shell varies between 4 mm and 17 mm. (Original description) The fusiformly elongate shell is longitudinally ribbed and finely striated transversely. The whorls are convex. The suture is impressed.
The notch is obsolete, forming no distinct band, though indicated by the lines of growth and by a slight flattening of the whorl just in front of the distinct and well-marked suture.
The subsequent whorls are impressed at the suture. They are swollen and show oblique, wide ribs with about 18 on the body whorl. There are only a few spiral lirae. These are undeveloped.
Of these ribs, 12 are present on all the whorls. The suture is slightly constricted. The periphery is well rounded. The base of the shell is short, marked by three strong spiral cords.
Fine spiral ridges typically cover the shell, found even in casts. The suture is distinctly ceratitic with rounded entire saddles and deep serrated lobes.James Perrin Smith, 1932. Lower Triassic Ammonoids of North America.
The thorax has a V-shaped transverse suture. The wing has 2 anal veins. The apical crossveins and M-Cu form an oblique line. The wings of Pedicia have contrasting brown longitudinal stripes.
The 3-4 apical whorls are ochreous and minutely decussate, the subsequent whorls are impressed at the suture. The wide aperture is ovate. The siphonal canal is short. The outer lip is thin.
The suture is superficial. Body whorl is more or less built forward. The aperture is small, obliquely pear-shaped, rounded or oval. The peristome is expanded or reflected, continuous and usually free throughout.
The length of the shell attains 11 mm. The white shell is spirally costate. The outer lip is crenulated, with a shallow sinus near the suture. The columellar lip shows a median plication.
The imperforate, solid shell has an elevated-conic shape. It is longitudinally subobliquely crinkled. Its color pattern is reddish orange, marked in places with white and olivaceous. The suture is impressed and irregular.
The suture is linear and very slightly depressed. The round aperture is rather large. The outer lip is thin. The inner lip is thin, hollowed out backwards, and bending somewhat across the umbilicus.
The outer lip is advancing, and producing a distinct notch at the suture. The columella is arcuate and slightly thickened. The open umbilicus is moderate.Suter, Proceedings of the Malacological Society, viii, 25, pl.
The rather solid, imperforate. subpellucid shell is white, with subdistant spiral riblets, and very minute longitudinal striae. The five, convex whorls show an impressed suture. The columellar tooth and external varix are strong.
In other great apes, the foramen spinosum is found not in the sphenoid bone but in parts of the temporal bone such as the squamous part, found at the sphenosquamosal suture, or absent.
Cadomites is directly descended from Stephanoceras, with a similar collared and lipped aperture rim, but has denser, finer, sharper ribbing. The shell is discoidal, evolute, with a wide umbilicus. The suture is complex.
In the subadult stage, the core still showed a suture, however. The subadult cores were transversely flattened and relatively small, not higher than . Six cores were of adults. They showed two distinctive types.
The height of the shell attains 10 mm, its diameter 9 mm. The thin, small, umbilicate shell has a turbinate shape. The convex whorls increase gradually. They are slightly flattened below the suture.
The body whorl is tumid. The suture is strongly marked, but hardly impressed. The aperture is round, but a little gibbous, bluntly pointed above. The thin, well arched outer lip is scarcely patulous.
The white shell is thin. Its length measures 2.3 mm. Its sculpture shows finely spiral striae. The seven whorls of the teleoconch are slightly convex, with a shallow channel next above the suture.
The aperture is very small, measuring about ⅓ of the total length. The siphonal canal is very short and recurved. The columella is callous and shows tubercles at the suture. The sinus is small.
The sculpture consistis of (on the body whorl) 23 stout, uniform, slightly flexuous rounded ribs extending from the suture to the siphonal canal with slightly narrower interspaces. The lines of increase are distinct, sometimes threadlike. These a re crossed by numerous close-set spiral threads, separated by narrow grooves, both faint near the suture. The threads grow stronger, regularly wider, and coarser gradually toward the siphonal canal, near which they are stronger than the obsolete ends of the transverse ribs.
The apex is more or less eroded in all the four specimens :it consists of not more than 1¼ embryonic whorls, which are globose, smooth, and with the point a little obliquely pressed down. The spire consists of 8½ whorls, rather short except the last, of regular increase, angulated above the middle. The shoulder between the suture and the keel is straight-lined. From the keel the whorls are slightly contracted to the inferior suture, and the profile-line here is scarcely convex.
The length of the shell attains 16 mm; its diameter 5 mm. (Original description) The slender, white, acute shell has seven or eight moderately convex whorls separated by a very distinct suture. The protoconch is swollen, twisted, consists of two whorls, the second spirally threaded. On about three of the subsequent whorls these threads are developed into two or three major cords between the periphery and the suture, becoming on later whorls obsolete, or this sculpture in other specimens may be obsolete.
The length of the shell attains 10 mm. The small shell is yellowish, with on the body whorl a faint dark band in front of the suture and an obscure dark line at the periphery, with a dark flush on the siphonal canal. The shell containssix whorls, including a minute smooth protoconch followed by a minutely reticulated second whorl, and then by the adult sculpture. The suture is distinct, slightly appressed, the anal fasciole occupying the space between it and an angular shoulder.
The apex is small, roundedly sharp, consisting of 3¼ carinated, but otherwise perfectly smooth, whorls, which form a short compact little cone, of which the extreme tip is a little obliquely flattened down on one side. The shell contains 10 whorls in all. There is a drooping and very slightly concave shoulder below the suture. The greatest breadth is at the keel, below which the whorls begin faintly, and with a very slightly convex profile, to contract into the inferior suture.
The spire without the nucleus is about equal in length to the aperture. The suture is appressed. A little in front of it is the anal fasciole, which is narrow, slightly constricted, and ill-defined. In front of it and forming the shoulder of the whorl is a series of about twelve round-topped, slightly protractive, wavelike axial ribs, which only reach the suture in front of them in the earlier whorls, falling short of it in the later ones.
The height of the shell attains 12.7 mm, its diameter 7.1 mm. (Original description) The thin, white, tumid, subequally biconical shell is subangulated and cancellated, with longitudinal and spiral threads. It is subscalar, with a squat, conical, small, yellow-tipped spire, an impressed suture, a tumid body whorl, a short rounded base, and a triangular, small- pointed, longish, one-sided aperture. Sculpture : Longitudinals—below the suture the whorls are closely scored with little concave bars, the cusps of the old sinuses.
These begin at the upper suture and extend to the base, but not to the snout. Near the top they are cut by a spiral furrow, so that the upper part of them forms a series of small rounded tubercles just below the suture. Below the spiral furrow the ribs are slightly swollen into knots. The ribs are parted by wider shallow furrows: these ribs and furrows run pretty regularly down the spire, but there are fewer of them on the earlier whorls.
The sculpture consists of a row of large oval nodules on the middle of the whorls, about 14 on a whorl. Those on the last two whorls are somewhat stretched out towards the suture below and incised in the middle by a spiral linear groove. A very strong spiral cord margins the suture below, and a fine thread above. The latter is continued as a rather strong cord on the body whorl, and is succeeded below by a similar cord.
The outer lip is sharp, slightly ascending at the suture. The posterior sinus is deep, rather narrow, separated from the suture by a distance equal to its width, then convex, with an anterior shallow sinus at the base of the siphonal canal. The inner lip is inconspicuous, applied, smooth, with a callosity at its junction with the outer lip. The sculpture of the first two whorls is closely, regularly, validly, axially costulate, the rest rudely ribbed in the anterior two-thirds.
The spire-whorls are subconvex, subangulate just below the middle, and have the upper fourth somewhat adpressed just below the simple impressed suture. The aperture is oblique oblong-ovate. The siphonal canal is short, wide, scarcely notched. The outer lip is solid but sharp, with a deep round sinus separated from the ascending suture by a callus from the posterior part of the inner lip, then straightly convexly antecurrent to two shallower sinuses at the base of the siphonal canal.
The anal sulcus is deep, narrow, the fasciole separated from the suture by a beaded ridge, the outer margin of the fasciole not elevated. Type † Pleurotoma cristata Conrad, 1848. Oligocene fossil. This group is extremely close to Ancistrosyrinx Dall, 1881, the latter differing only by having the anal sulcus at the suture, with no intervening ridge, while the outer margin of the fasciole has an elevated lamella between which and the reflected keel at the shoulder there is an excavated channel.
Frontal view of the arms in Therizinosaurus IGM 100/15 In therizinosaurids, the shoulder girdle was robustly specialized than in other maniraptorans and less bird-like. The scapula (shoulder blade) was very straight and flattened at the upper end being fused to the coracoid bone, forming the scapulocoracoid. Near the region of the scapulocoracoid suture, on the coracoid, a large foramen is present. The coracoid is a wide and broad element that is slightly convex and thickened near of the scapulocoracoid suture.
The aperture is oblong-oval, narrower behind, widely open in front, with a shallow notch. The outer lip is simple, sharp, thickened by a marked varix outside, which ascends roundly at the suture and bounds a shallow, wide posterior sinus. The profile is convex, barely sinused anteriorly. The axial ribs are roundly trigonal, sinuous, undulating the upper suture, most valid at the swelling of the whorl, half as wide as the interspaces, vanishing towards the base, and becoming obsolete towards the aperture.
The Tian Shan contains two late Paleozoic sutures. The older, southern suture marks the collision of a passive margin at the north of the Tarim block and an active continental margin; subduction under the latter was to the north. The late Paleozoic continent-continent collision along Tarim's northern margin created an orogenic belt along the southern part of the Tian Shan. The younger, northern suture separates a northern Carboniferous island arc from an active continental margin developed over a south-dipping subduction zone.
The next 3½ whorls are smooth, except for faintest lines of growth, glassy with the nacre shining through. The remainder of the shell is covered with delicate and distinct lines of growth, sometimes a little more pronounced near the suture, and by revolving lines almost too shallow to be called grooves. These are most prominent on the periphery, evanescent on the flattened part of the base and above near the suture. On the body whorl these are about 0.5 mm. apart.
Its color is white over nacre. Sculpture: spirals—At the periphery is a sharp flange-like carina Above this, about one-third of the distance to the suture, is a second, almost equally strong and prominent, which forms a shoulder to the whorls. The space between this and the suture is divided pretty equally by two threads, the lower of which is feeble. On the upper whorls all of these are closely beaded, on the body whorl only the two highest are so.
Holotype quadrate (MTM 2011.43.1) of Pannoniasaurus inexpectatus Pannoniasaurus was a medium-sized mosasauroid, estimated to grow up to a maximum of in length. It exhibited a combination of primitive characteristics, such as having no predental rostrum, the premaxilla-maxilla suture ends anterior to or level with the midline of the fourth maxillary tooth, a nearly straight frontoparietal suture, and a shallow quadrate alar concavity. It also had elongated stapedial pit that was at least three times longer than it was wide.
The adherence to "no-touch" protocols that eliminate direct contact with needles during use and disposal greatly reduces the risk of needlestick injuries. In the surgical setting, especially in abdominal operations, blunt-tip suture needles were found to reduce needle stick injuries by 69%. Blunt-tip or tapered-tip suture needles can be used to sew muscle and fascia. Though they are more expensive than sharp-tipped needles, this cost is balanced by the reduction in injuries, which are expensive to treat.
The suture is deep and appressed. The whorls are gently rounded. T he apical whorls show (on the third whorl about fifteen) very narrow, sharp, threadlike, vertical ribs with much wider interspaces, and at the suture numerous, irregular, small, retractive folds extending over the fasciole, with wider interspaces, nearly twice as many as there are ribs. On the succeeding whorls these ribs and folds grow sparser and weaker, so that on the sixth whorl ribs, folds and fasciole are obsolete or absent.
All sutures are classified as either absorbable or non- absorbable depending on whether the body will naturally degrade and absorb the suture material over time. Absorbable suture materials include the original catgut as well as the newer synthetics polyglycolic acid, polylactic acid, polydioxanone, and caprolactone. The polymer materials are based on one or more of five cyclic monomers: glycolide, l-lactide, p-dioxanone, trimethylene carbonate and ε-caprolactone. They are broken down by various processes including hydrolysis (polyglycolic acid) and proteolytic enzymatic degradation.
Besides the carina, there are many delicate lines three or four of these, very fine, smooth, and flat, come in below the suture ; at about 1/30 inch below the suture is a fine, sharp, engraved line. About 6 more of these, but less strong, come in above the keel. Below the keel the sculpture is somewhat similar, but less distinct and less regular. On the snout the interstices rise into rounded, slightly roughened threads, which on the extreme point become feebler.
For more information, please see SARPE Once a patient reaches maturity (puberty) the palate halves or the Intermaxillary suture fuses together into a single palate tissue. If the patient suffers with a constricted maxillary arch, a palatal expander would need to be used. However, with the matured palate, the palatal expander would need to be surgically inserted onto the mid-palatal suture. Typically, the patient would be under the care of an oral-maxiofacial surgeon and the surgical procedure would commence.
The aperture is moderately narrow, about half the length of the shell. The outer lip is thin, broken on the specimens at hand, but shown by growth lines to recurve sharply into the anal sinus. The anal sinus is moderately broad and deep, adjacent to the suture, the growth lines recurving only slightly from the apex of the sinus to the suture. The sculpture consists of short axial nodes on the periphery, about ten of the peripheral nodes visible from an angle.
The transverse sculpture consists of nine stout short waves, or rounded ribs, with narrower interspaces, beginning in front of the fasciole and becoming obsolete in front of the whorl toward the canal. It also shows rather coarse, strong, and somewhat irregular incremental lines. And where the fasciole borders on the suture, the arched incremental lines are crowded into a series of not very regular plications, which form a band or series in front of the suture. The fasciole is slightly excavated.
The upper jaw contains a secondary palate which separates the nasal passages from the rest of the mouth, which would have given Thrinaxodon the ability to breathe uninterrupted, even if food had been kept in its mouth. This adaptation would have allowed the Thrinaxodon to mash its food to a greater extent, decreasing the amount of time necessary for digestion. The maxillae and palatines meet medially in the upper jaw developing a midline suture. The maxillopalatine suture also includes a posterior palatine foramen.
Stearoceras is involute with a depressed subtrapizoidal whorl section and slight ventral and lateral lobes. Stenoporceras is subdiscoidal, flattened laterally, and has a suture with broad lateral lobes and a deep ventral saddle as found in syringonautilids. Permian genera include Parastenopoceras, a smooth, involute form with a semiellptical whorl section and ventral saddle; Plummeroceras, a form similar to Domatoceras but more evolute and with a deep ventral lobe; Pselioceras, a smooth evolute form with a perforate umbilicus, ovoid whorl section, and suture crossing straight over the venter; and Virgaloceras, also similar to Domatoceras but with a row of nodes on the umbilical wall and a ventral saddle instead of the ventral lobe in the suture. Parastenopoceras, Plummeroceras, and Pselioceras are from the Lower Permian; Virgaloceras is from the Upper Permian.
The whorls are rounded, and angulated behind the periphery. The shell shows twelve narrow riblets and has no varix. The notch is shallow, deepest near the angulation. The suture is hardly appressed or undulated.
The brown shell grows to a length of 9 mm. The whorls show three cingulae and two lirae. The body whorl is spirally multicingulate and longitudinally lirulate. The suture is slightly but distinctly incised.
On the spire the interspaces are more cordlike, six or seven between the shoulder and the succeeding suture. The aperture is simple. The inner lip is erased. The siphonal canal is short and straight.
It differs, however, in being covered with a paler epidermis, in having below the suture a raised girdle formed by a depression or constriction around the whorls, and also in the style of coloration.

The whorls are a little irregular in form. The suture is strongly appressed. The sculpture, as usual, is less strong, but still perfectly distinct, on the fasciole. The notch is rather deep, semicircular behind.
In the upper whorls they barely reach the lower suture. On the body whorl they hardly extend to the base. They originate at a shoulder below the sinus-area. They are thus very short.
The size of the shell varies between 3 mm and 4.3 mm. The base is perforated or umbilicated. The fissure of the outer lip is close to the suture. The columella is produced below.
They are crossed by three spiral lines, giving a granulated appearance. The folds terminate at the periphery. Below it on the body whorl are four spiral striae. The suture is distinct, but indistinctly margined.

Visual Demonstration In surgery or medical procedure, a ligature consists of a piece of thread (suture) tied around an anatomical structure, usually a blood vessel or another hollow structure (e.g. urethra) to shut it off.
The suture is irregularly undulating. The last whorl is little convex below. The aperture is subvertical, ovate-oblong, nearly half the length of the shell. The peristome is a little thickened, lightly spreading and white.
Packing of nasal cavity and sinus is sometime required. Suturing of buccal incision is recommended with absorbable suture material. The patient should be advised against overenthusiastic blowing of the nose for at least a week.
The ground-color, in some specimens, is pale chestnut or ferruginous, banded with darker shades. Other specimens are pure white. The aperture is white. The suture is scarcely if at all margined by a groove.
The shell is elevated and glossy, conical with straight whorls. The protoconch is white. Overall color is light olive with a purplish iridescent shine. There are darker blotches just above the suture, on the periphery.
2003 onwards. Tipulidae. British Insects: The Families of Diptera. Version: 1 January 2012. It’s also characterized by a V-shaped suture or groove on the back of the thorax (mesonotum) and by its wing venation.
It is a large extensional pull-part basin in extensional continental marginal setting, developed along the Red River fault zone, which located at the suture of the Indochina Plate and Yangtze Plate (South China Plate).
The shell of Diaphera prima is oblong. The shell has 7-8 whorls. The sculpture of the shell is smooth with short ribs below the suture. The apex of the shell is obtuse and smooth.
The shell grows to a length of 2.1 mm. The thin shell is nearly transparent, glossy, with microscopical growthlines. There are four, rather swollen whorls with a deep suture. The umbilicus is small and narrow.
Named marginal oceans or oceanic plates include (clockwise) Mongol-Okhotsk (now a suture between Mongolia and Sea of Okhotsk), Oimyakon (between Asian craton and Kolyma-Omolon), Slide Mountain Ocean (British Columbia), and Mezcalera (western Mexico).
The deep sutures are canaliculate. The convex whorls are cingulate with rows of bead-like separated granules. The interstices are longitudinally obliquely striate. At the suture they are ornamented with a series of squamiform tubercles.
Micro-plate tectonics suggests that each terrane acts on its own, according to its own boundaries, and the sutures between them (including the Bangong suture between the Lhasa and Qiangtang) are reactivated in the Cenozoic.
They are marked by 13 strongly incised, subequal and subequally spaced pits. The suture is moderately constricted. The periphery of the body whorl is well rounded. The base of the shell attenuated, and well rounded.
The lines of growth are much finer than in the ordinary form and do not take the appearance of riblets on the body whorl, nor do they render the cinguli nodulous. The suture is sharply impressed, and the raised revolving line usually present just below the suture is absent. This form, therefore, is characterized by the relative predominance of the spiral sculpture over the transverse, and by the absence of distinct nodules at the crossing of the two systems of lines. Verrill A. E. (1884).
The suture is minutely channeled. The spiral sculpture consists of (on the penultimate whorl three, on the body whorl about a dozen) strong squarish cords with narrower interspaces, growing smaller toward the siphonal canal and covering the entire whorl. The cord in front of the suture is separated by a somewhat wider and deeper interspace from those in front of it. The axial sculpture consists of numerous equal regular narrow sulci, cutting the stronger spirals into squarish nodules but less evident on the base.
The penultimate and the three or four preceding ribs exhibit this character. At the upper ends, a little below the suture, the ribs are faintly angled ; and the dots on the base in the upper whorls and on the middle and lower part in the body whorl are so faint that they might be easily overlooked. There are also a few faint dots between the ribs, just below the suture. The aperture is elongate-ovate and covers about 3/7 of the total length of the shell.
The former Lhasa prefecture lies in the Lhasa terrane, to which it gives its name. This is thought to be the last crustal block to accrete to the Eurasian plate before the collision with the Indian plate in the Cenozoic. The terrane is separated from the Himalayas to the south by the Yarlung-Tsangpo suture, and from the Qiangtang terrane to the north by the Bangong-Nujiang suture. The Lhasa terrane consisted of two blocks before the Mesozoic, the North Lhasa Block and the South Lhasa Block.
The length of the shell attains 28 mm, its diameter 9 mm. (Original description) The shell is acuminately fusiform, shining, and very smooth. It contains 12 white and slightly bulbous whorls of which the two of the protoconch are transparent. The remainder are moderately suturally impressed, with a plicate and conspicuous revolving keel just below the suture, a plain space just below this, and then, joining on to the suture below, another carina raised and ornamented with a spiral row of small shining nodules.
In the concave space just below the suture are crowded very fine spirals, eight in the penultimate. Below a prominent thread which bounds this space are more distant and stouter lirae, two in the first whorl, three in the second, four in the third, eight in the fourth, and about forty in the body whorl. Axial threadlets concave forwards to the prominent spiral thread, and convex forwards thence to the suture, run in the body whorl over the base to the siphonal anal. Verco, J.C. 1909.
There is usually, on the larger whorls, a raised revolving line, or small carina, just above the suture. The aperture is very elongated and narrowed at the base of the siphonal canal, which is much prolonged and slender, a little curved, owing to a slight sinuous curvature of the columella-margin. The posterior notch in the outer lip is rather deep and narrow, situated immediately at the suture. The subsutural band, corresponding to it, shows faint cm'ved lines of growth, parallel with its margin.
The two or three of the very tip are broken. Whorls 6-7, exclusive o£ those which form the apex, of regular increase, with a drooping concave shoulder, keeled, and below the keel almost cylindrical, but with a very slight contraction to the lower suture. The body whorl is short, tumid, with a rounded base produced into a short, broad, triangular, one-sided aperture. The suture is very slightly impressed and extremely small, as the inferior whorl laps up on the one above it.
The whorls of the teleoconch are convex, slightly angular at some distance from the deep, crenulated suture. The sculpture consists of numerous axial riblets, 32 on penultimate whorl, crossed by numerous spirals, 10 on penultimate whorl, of which the upper one, bordering the suture, is finely crenulated by the upper ends of ribs and finely spirally striated. One of the lirae at the shoulder is the most prominent and makes the whorls angular. The other ones are subequal, with, in many cases, intermediate lirae.
The postpalatine torus (a bony protrusion on the palate) of Catopsbaatar was less prominent than was that of Tombaatar. The frontal bone was large, and formed most of the cranial roof. The suture between the frontal and parietal bones formed a U-shaped part in the middle which pointed backwards—similar to the condition in Kryptobaatar but less deep, with smaller U-shaped structures at the sides. This differed from Djadochtatherium, which had a narrower V-shaped suture between the frontal and parietal bones.
Placenticeratidae is an extinct family of mostly Late Cretaceous ammonites (cephalopod order Ammonitida) included in the superfamily Hoplitoidea, derived from the Engonoceratidae by an increase in suture complexity. Placeticeratids are characterized by rather involute compressed shells of moderate to large size with narrow flat or grooved venters (outer rims), at least on early whorls. Most are rather smooth or weakly ornamented except for a few later forms in which the outer whorls are strongly tuberculate. The suture has numerous, including auxiliary and adventive, elements.
It became the basis of the Tyco Healthcare business when it was acquired by the company that year, along with Classic Medical, Uni- Patch and Promeon. In 1998, Tyco Healthcare acquired Sherwood, Davis & Geck, a manufacturer and distributor of disposable medical products, and United States Surgical Corporation (U.S. Surgical), which provided suture and auto suture devices, along with energy-based devices, through its Valleylab brand. And, in 2000, Tyco Healthcare added respiratory and monitoring products provider Nellcor Puritan Bennett through the acquisition of Mallinckrodt Inc.
In Ptychoparia, the part of this suture behind the eye cuts to the posterior margin just to the inside of the genal spine (or the suture is gonatoparian), and the part in front of the eye diverges from the midline. There is a spine in the back corners of the cephalon (or genal spine) that reaches approximately to the third thorax segment, and is confluent with the outer margin of the cephalon. The articulate midsection of the body (or thorax) has 13 (P. striata) or 14 (P.
Outside the row of holes the usual sulcus is strongly marked. About midway from the suture to the lines of holes is a raised rib, rather obscure, but differing in different individuals and corresponding to an internal sulcus. Between the central ridges and the suture there are no undulations or transverse ridges of consequence. The sculpture consists of well marked, rather flattish, spiral, close-set threads, sometimes with a single finer intercalary thread, overlaid by smaller rather compressed transverse ridges, in harmony with the incremental lines.
In this order, suture complexity developed by the addition of lobes from the umbilical area, across the flanks, during the life (ontogeny) of the animal, and phylogenetically with succeeding genera. The Prolecanitoidea combines two related families, the ancestral Prolecanitidae and the derived Daraelitidae. A third family, the Prodromitidae has been abandoned and its sole genus, Prodromites included in the Prolecanitidae. These two families differ primarily in the complexity of the suture which is simpler and goniatitic in the Prodromitidae and more complex and ceratitic in the Daraelitidae.
The nucleus is smooth, followed by a 2nd and 3rd whorl, each with 6 spiral lirae of which the upper ones are slightly undulate. On the fourth whorl the lirae disappear, only the 'upper one remains and becomes beaded. It borders the broadly canaliculated suture, which in this and in the fifth whorl, is crossed by conspicuous striae, which run partly also on the convex, smooth, lower part of these whorls. Near the body whorl the beads disappear, the suture becomes less broad and deep.
Many bones made up the upper side of the skull, although a particular pair of bones acquired a specific design in rhinesuchids. These bones were the elongated jugal and prefrontal bones, which formed the front edge of the orbits (eye holes). In most rhinesuchids, the edge between the two bones possessed a 'stepped' shape, with a triangular outer extension of the prefrontal pushing the suture with the jugal towards a more lateral (outwards) position. However, the suture is more straight in Australerpeton, like in other stereospondyls.
The spire consists of about nine whorls. A nepionic (= the whorls immediately following the embryonic whorls) whorl and a half follows, with three spiral, latterly beaded cords. The remaining sculpture comprises a strong prominently beaded cord at the periphery immediately in front of which the suture is laid. On the body whorl between the periphery and the suture behind it, are about a dozen threads smaller than that at the periphery but equally and uniformly beaded, with subequal, smooth interspaces, and mostly alternating in size.
A strong secondary and two or more tertiaries are usually developed between the anterior peripheral spiral and the spiral upon which the suture revolves. The body whorl in front of the periphery is lirated to the anterior siphonal fasciole with about 12 elevated cords, regular in size and spacing, becoming increasingly less prominent and less distant anteriorly, with 2 to 4 threadlets intercalated between each pair, the medial thread usually the least feeble. The anterior fasciole is also obscurely threaded. The suture line is very inconspicuous.
As in allied forms, there is a colour dimorphism i nwhich olive brown replaces the carmine, a trace of which remains on the summit. The shell contains five whorls. On the penultimate whorl there are four spirals, the upper being a double bead row, and a fifth half-buried in the suture by the succeeding whorl. On the body whorl there are thirteen spirals which become taller, broader, more widely spaced and more inclined to break up into beads as they ascend from base to suture.

The straight line only interrupted by a row of short, fold- like, oblique tubercles at the lower part of the whorls, somewhat fainter near the aperture. They number 17 on the penultimate whorl. The whorls have a second row of slightly oblong, bead-like tubercles, just below the suture, about 30 in number on the body whorl. The spiral sculpture consists of impressed striae, crossing the lower half of basal row of tubercles on each whorl, and 2 or 3 just above the suture.
The posterior edge of the scapula is robust and the acromion is lightly built, likely fused into a cartilaginous system with its periphery in life. The coracoid measures in length, it has a broad and convex lateral surface that forms a slightly inclined concavity near of the scapulocoracoid suture. This concavity bends down towards the scapular widening. Near the scapulocoracoid suture, this edge turns very thin and possibly into cartilage along with the periphery of the coracoid in life, as the case of the scapular edge.
The general form of the shell is biconic with a single sharp keel at the shoulder, between which and the suture the whorl is more or less excavated. The suture is distinct, the margin in front of it is turgid, giving an effect as if minutely channelled. The excavated area forming the anal fasciole shows arcuate growth lines, crossed by about six faint incised distant spiral lines. The keel somewhat above the periphery, shows a rounded and somewhat compressed edge without waves or nodulations.
High pressure terranes along the ~1200 km long east-west trending Bangong- Nujiang suture zone (BNS) on the Tibetan Plateau have been extensively mapped and studied. Understanding the geodynamic processes in which these terranes are created is key to understanding the development and subsequent deformation of the BNS and Eurasian deformation as a whole. General map of central Tibet. High pressure terranes along the Bangong-Nujiang suture zone are highlighted in red: Bangong Lake-Gertse (western sector), Dongqiao-Amdo (middle sector), and Dingqing-Nujiang.

Suture is a 1993 American thriller film directed by Scott McGehee and David Siegel and starring Dennis Haysbert and Mel Harris. It was screened in the Un Certain Regard section at the 1994 Cannes Film Festival.
A postorbital ridge is present, obscuring the suture (joint) between the frontal and squamosal bones,Carleton and Olson, 1999, p. 14 a feature shared only with Holochilus among oryzomyines.Weksler, 2006, p. 30 The braincase is squarish.
The length of the shell attains 13 mm, its diameter 5½ mm. The small, whitish golden yellow shell has an ovate-fusiform shape. It contains 6⅓ whorls. The convex whorls are slightly excavated near the suture.
Complications of surgical procedures are possible suture erosion through the sclera, conjunctiva, or both. Minor intraocular inflammation during and after surgery. Improved distant and near visual acuity, little defects surrounding sphincter muscles, and normal pupillary margins.
The suture is ammonitic but relatively simple with generally rounded, cauliform, elements. (Fig 14, p. 17, Cobban and Hook, 1983). Cibolaites is similar to the Coniacian Barroisiceras which differ in having smaller umbilici and crenulate keels.
They are slightly convex, and united by a pretty fine and regular linear suture. The aperture is oblong ovate, slightly longitudinal, smooth and of a chamois-yellow color. The outer lip is thin and sharp.Kiener (1840).
They are slightly convex, the last rounded or obtusely angular. The base of the shell is flatly convex. The suture is linear, slightly impressed. The aperture is less than one-half the length of the shell.
The suture is impressed, with the serrate processes extending over it. The circular aperture is slightly oblique. The peristome is continuous, with a callous varix. The columella is arcuate, with an outer tubercle at its base.
The acute spire is conoidal. The sutures are slightly impressed. The shell contains about 42 rapidly widening whorls. The large body whorl is rounded at the periphery and a little impressed or margined below the suture.
The first increases slowly, then more rapidly, the upper half convex, the lower slightly concave. The periphery of the body whorl is roundly angled. The base of the shell is almost flat. The suture is superficial.
The penultimate whorl is a trifle projecting above the suture. The body whorl is obtusely subangular at the periphery. The aperture is triangular-ovate. The outer lip is arcuate above, green-marginate just within the edge.
Below the suture on the body whorl there are square white spaces left bare. The aperture is round. The outer lip is plain and slightly effuse. The columella has a very strong tooth near the base.
The 1½ nearly flat whorls of the protoconch are prominent, slightly oblique and slightly projecting. The eight whorls of the teleoconch are moderately convex. The suture is distinct, and straight. The transverse ribs number about 18.
The sinistral or dextral shell is imperforate, conic-oblong and solid. The shell has 6 whorls. The spire is slightly convexly-conic and the apex subacute. The suture is margined and the whorls are slightly convex.
A ball-and-stick model of polypropylene. Prolene is a synthetic, monofilament, nonabsorbable polypropylene suture. It is indicated for skin closure and general soft tissue approximation and ligation. Its advantages include minimal tissue reactivity and durability.
The nucleus is slightly umbilicate. The postnuclear whorls are nearly smooth. They show very fine curved growth striae. The whorls are nearly straight, but slightly convex in the upper part, slightly concave near the lower suture.
The ends of the sphincter are sutured together to perineal body. Two sutures are placed in the rectal fascia to lessen the tension on the sphincter ends. The vaginal mucosa is then closed with continuous suture.
The aperture is roundly ovate, slightly longer than broad and rounded anteriorly. The peristome is not continuous. The peristome is sharp, simple, slightly reflected near the columella, suggesting a faint umbilicus. The suture is slightly impressed.
The suture is moderately constricted. The periphery of the body whorl is very feebly angulated. The base of the shell is short, inflated, well rounded, and with a very narrow umbilical chink. The aperture is large.
Shells could have been large in their size. Suture has been very complex, similar to Oxynoticeras, but culmination at umbilical margin has been missing. Genus has been named after town of Radstock, in Somerset.Schlegelmilch, R. (1992).
Protoconch is smooth. The shell has 6.5 whorls, that are hardly convex. The suture is slightly impressed. The aperture is elongate- ovate, margins somewhat converging; 1.59 times as long as wide, 0.25 times the total height.
This surface is only very slightly convex, with a spiral row of spinous nodules, at a little distance from the canaliculate suture, and a strong keel at the periphery Below this keel the whorls are excavated, so as to form with the channel of the next whorl, a rather wide, deep channel, over which the keel projects, producing the pagodiform shape. Of the spinous nodules, the largest specimen has 25 at the keel, and about 30 near the suture. The base is rather convex, with a small umbilicus, bordered by a rather strong, crenulated, spiral rib Between this and the peripheral keel run 4 spiral lirae, which are more or less beaded. The outer one nearest to the keel, borders the concave inferior space of the upper whorls, and on this spiral runs the suture, which is slightly crenulate.
The Early Ordovician (Taconic) Baie Verte Line in Quebec and Newfoundland marks the boundary between the continental margin of Laurentia and Iapetan oceanic rocks, while the Early Ordovician (Penobscot) GRUB Line defines the contact between the vestiges of Iapetus and Ganderia. The Middle Ordovician Red Indian Line is considered the main Iapetan suture zone in that it separates peri-Laurentian and peri- Gondwanan oceanic elements. The Dog Bay Line is a younger feature in the Appalachians and delineates the terminal Iapetan suture in Newfoundland as it marks the Early Silurian (Salinic) collisional zone between Ganderia and Laurentia.J. C. Pollock, D. H. C. Wilton, C. R. van Staal, and K. D. Morrissey U-Pb detrital zircon geochronological constraints on the Early Silurian collision of Ganderia and Laurentia along the Dog Bay Line: The terminal Iapetan suture in the Newfoundland Appalachians.
The subsequent whorls are angular, very convex, separated by a linear, undulated suture, accompanied by a faint infrasutural rib, more conspicuous on upper whorls . The upper part of whorls is conspicuously excavated, the lower part contains strong, short, nodulous, oblique ribs, abruptly ending at the excavation, scarcely reaching the basal suture in the lower whorls. There are 3 faint, raised, spiral lirae in the excavation, crossed by elegantly curved, partly riblike striae, 4 to 5 stronger lirae crossing the ribs, with a few faint striae above them on the limit between ribs and excavation in the lower whorls. On the penultimate whorl, another liration appears at some distance above the suture, amounting to 3 rather remote, strong lirae on the body whorl, and a large number (about 20) on the basal part of the body whorl and siphonal canal.
The length of the shel attains 13.5 mm, its diameter 6 mm. (Original description) The white shell is rather solid, with about six shouldered whorls. The apex is eroded. The suture is distinct, slightly constricted and appressed.
The anal sinus is shallow and small. The columella and the throat are brownish, with a brown band under the suture. The outer lip is sharp between, and thickened at the varices. The siphonal canal is short.
The length of the shell attains 9.3 mm, its diameter 3.3 mm. The thin, white, subhyaline shell has a fusiform shape and a turreted spire with an acuminate apex. It contains eight whorls. The suture is impressed.
Based on suture differences, they are divided into 2 subfamilies. Reynesocoeloceratinae possess two major secondary lobes in dorsal side of external saddle. This saddle is not divided this way in Dactylioceratinae, while lateral lobe is deeply trifid.
It is transversely striated with sharp and elevated striae. The outer lip is curved and thickened on the outside. It has a large and deep sinus at the suture. The siphonal canal is short and very open.
Coilopoceras is a compressed, involute, lenticular ammonitid from the Cretaceous (Albian to Turonian),Coilopoceras at Fossilworks.org with a narrow venter and raggedy ammonitic suture; type of the Coilopoceratidae, a family in the Acanthoceratoidea of the suborder Ammonitina.
Johnson, 1848. Coloration uniformly tawny-reddish, from light to dark, with whitish blotches as wide as two axials usually vanishing towards the suture. Comma-shaped white spots on the subsutural ramp. Soft parts foot sharped bilobed anteriorly.
The spire is moderately elevated. The suture is impressed. The 5½ to 6 whorls are subplanate with the body whorl obtusely angulated. The base of the shell is obsoletely striated and covered with spots of grayish-white.
Head moderate. Diameter of eye less than its distance from the mouth in the adult. Rostral slightly more broad than deep. Nasals shorter than the frontal, more than twice as long as the suture between the prefrontals.
The shell contains four, spiral, smooth and shining whorls. The body whorl is nearly smooth but showing a slight tendency to bear furrows or lines radiating from the suture. The umbilicus is small. The aperture is round.
The first 3 or 4 of these enlarge quite abruptly, while below the increase is very gradual. The suture is deep and nearly straight. The transverse ribs number about 20. They are rounded, oblique, and nearly straight.
These ribs continue on the suture for about half a whorl. The interstices of the ribs are faintly spirally scratched. The very oblique aperture is circular and fortified by a varix.Hedley Charles (1902) Studies on Australian Mollusca.
In this genus, the shell is fusiform, with a well-produced spire. The whorls are coronated with tubercles or short spines at the suture;. The aperture is oval. The columellar lip is smooth, arcuate, and callous behind.
The colour may be dark-brown. The peripheral white band may fade out toward the aperture. The white blotches beneath the suture and the articulated bands around the perforation seem the most constant ornament. Verco, J.C. 1907.
The Reverdin needle is a surgical instrument designed to pass through a surgical suture and is named after the Swiss surgeon Jacques-Louis Reverdin. Over time, several modifications have been made to the needle and its name.
The lateral fibers, forming the zygomatic head (also known as the zygomaticus minor muscle) arise from the malar surface of the zygomatic bone immediately behind the zygomaticomaxillary suture and pass downward and medialward to the upper lip.
The eight whorls are a little convex. They are obsoletely sculptured with incremental striae. The suture has a series of fine short folds on each side. Three last whorls are covered with a median series of tubercles.
The height of the shell attains 7 mm. (Description by Philippi) The small, conical shell is perforate, and transversely striate. It color is white, radiated with rose. The shell is angular below the suture, the angle nodose.
The color of the shell is white, with a pink or blue nacre glowing through. The whorls are rounded, flattened in front of the suture. The base of the shell is rounded. The wide umbilicus is funicular.
The apex is blunt, the smooth rounded 1½ whorl is scarcely projecting. There are six tumid whorls increasing rapidly. The penultimate whorl rises swollen out of the suture. The base of the shell is a little flattened.
The size of the shell varies between 25 mm and 40 mm. The imperforate shell has a pyramidal shape. It is fulvous, with red spots along the suture. It is transversely striate, decussated by very delicate striae.
The height of the shell attains 24 mm. The acute shell contain six gently rounded whorls with fine, revolving, thread-like ribs. Four or five ribs near the suture are granulated. The body whorl is roundly carinated.
The 4 to 5 whorls are moderately convex. They are obliquely striate and spirally sulcate. The body whorl is ample, rounded, obsoletely angulated above and marginated at the suture. It is white, with radiating flexuous red lines.
The suture is distinctly marked. The aperture is large and round. The outer lip is thin, edged with a thin band of white, inside iridescent. The columella is subvertical, semicurved, expanding as a callus over the umbilicus.
The globular shell is rather small with a low spire : max. 16 mm high and 14 mm wide. The shell has a rather pointed apex. There are 5 to 6 gently convex whorls with an undeep suture.
First lower labial forming a suture with its fellow behind the mental. Four lower labials in contact with the anterior chin shield. Two pairs of chin shields, the anterior pair longer than the posterior pair.Boulenger, G.A. 1896.
The teleoconch has up to 3 smooth, inflated, convex, rapidly descending whorls. The suture has abutting whorls. The shell surface is smooth, glazed, and lacking spiral and axial sculpture. The aperture is ovate, narrow posteriorly, broad anteriorly.
However, the southwestern extension of this suture is poorly understood due to poor exposure. Yangtze Block contains several Archean—Paleoproterozoic crystalline basements (e.g. Kongling Complex). The igneous rocks are unconformably overlain by weakly metamorphosed Neoproterozoic sequences (e.g.
Mercaticeras shows a subquadratic section, sometimes wider than high. The shell is averagely evolute, with a spiral that grows more rapidly in the internal whirls. It is adorned by sturdy, clavate, simple ribs. The suture is simple.
The suture is distinct. The whorl in front of it narrowly marginate. The polished surface of the shell is smooth, except for fine incremental lines. It shows about ten faint grooves around the very narrowly perforate umbilicus.
The minute, narrowly umbilicate, rather solid shell has a turbinate shape. It is white and semipellucid. The spire is raised, the suture is distinct. The five whorls are rounded, the first three transversely ribbed and longitudinally striated.
A narrow sutural band occupies the upper one third of the whorl. Incremental lines are visible. The suture is deeply impressed and distinct. The body whorl is somewhat ventricose and narrowed anteriorly, with transverse ribs sometimes obsolete.
The elongate-ovate shell is light yellow. It measures 5.5 mm. The nuclear whorls are decollated. The six post-nuclear whorls are inflated, slightly rounded in the middle, more so toward the suture, and the appressed summit.
The suture is simple. The shell has six whorls that are slightly convex, increasing with moderate rapidity. The last whorl is convex, not descending in front, somewhat attenuated at base. The columella is suboblique, sometimes nearly vertical.
The spire is papillose and obtuse. The suture has a dark purple colour and is impressed. The columella is slightly oblique, shortly truncated in front. The outer lip is moderately arcuate, simple, not effuse towards the base.
All bites are in the same vertical plane. The middle stitch is a vertical mattress the others simple interrupted stitches The vertical mattress stitch, often called vertical Donati stitch (named after the Italian surgeon Mario Donati),16425084 is a suture type used to close skin wounds. The advantages of the vertical mattress suture are that it provides closure for both deep and superficial layers, and also allows perfect eversion and vertical opposition of the superficial skin edges. Its disadvantage is a relatively high propensity to dig into skin and cause prominent stitch mark scars.
Immediately below the suture there is a minute collar of very small, short, sharp, irregular puckers with intervals of twice their own breadth. Springing from these puckers and coinciding with the riblets are hair-like lines of growth, slightly stronger than the other growth lines which closely cover the whole surface of the shell. Spirals —there is a slight collar at the top of the whorls, which forms a very minute and irregular shelf on the underside of the suture. About two-thirds down the whorls is a blunt angulation where the longitudinal riblets rise.
A very few prominent, narrow, straight ribs (six on the body whorl) cross the whorls from suture to suture, separated by very wide, concave interspaces. A single rounded thread revolves on the periphery at the shoulder of the whorls, scarcely visible on the interspaces, but forming conspicuous, oblong nodules on the ribs. On the body whorl the ribs continue to the end of the siphonal canal curving in from its base, towards the aperture. On the ventral surface of the siphonal canal there are five or six very indistinct, oblique striae.
It is large and dome-shaped, having the extreme tip quite immersed and the suture almost suppressed. The shell contains 5½ whorls in all (but the specimen is immature). They are short and broad, of rather rapid increase, with a broad horizontal shoulder and a sharp carinated angle, below which they are cylindrical with a slight contraction to the lower suture. The last is broadest at the keel, a little contracted below this point, tumid on the base, drawn in at the columella, with a small, short sharp-pointed, siphonal canal.
On the whorl next the last there are two between the suture and the shoulder of the whorl. The transverse sculpture consists of rather strong, even, irregularly spaced, concavely arched waves, which cross the fasciole from side to side like a succession of irregularly huddled parentheses; also of a few faint ridges on the base due to incremental irregularities. The base of the shell is subconic, slightly constricted for the siphonalcanal. The anal notch is wide, squarely cut, rounded at the bottom, not touching the suture, a little deeper than wide.
The length of the shell varies between 4 mm and 12.5 mm. The shell is in most features like Pleurotomella normalis (Dall, 1881), but more elongated, with nine whorls, the revolving threads (except the sutural ones) obsolete except near the anterior end of the body whorl. With a tendency of the thread next the suture to be stronger and more strongly knobbed than (as in the normal form) the outer one. There are twenty to twenty-five transverse threads, more numerous and in large specimens hardly noticeable except near the suture.
The spiral sculpture consists of numerous fine impressed lines, strongest on the ribs of which they faintly crenulate the crests, and well marked on the siphonal canal where the interspaces are slightly raised and rounded. The transverse sculpture consists of (on the body whorl ten) elevated ribs, not continuous from whorl to whorl, extending from suture to the siphonal canal. These are thin and slightly curved behind the periphery, a little swollen on the periphery and in front of it again diminishing. The suture is somewhat appressed, undulated by the ribs.
Condraoceras is a genus of liroceratids from the Pennsylvanian of North America and Lower Permian of Europe with a compressed, involute, nautiliconic shell; subcircular whorl section; small umbilicus with a rounded shoulder; suture with shallow ventral and lateral lobes; and narrow subcentral siphuncle. Liroceras, from the same time and type of the family, differs in having a reniform whorl section and essentially straight sutures at maturity. Peripetoceras, another related genus, has a flattened venter, slight ventral and lateral lobes in the suture, and a siphuncle offset dorsally from the center.
There are about two embryonic whorls on the protoconch, which are small, nearly cylindrical, with scarcely appreciable suture, and end in a blunt, round, laterally flattened-down tip. The shell contains 10 whorls in all, rather short and broad, scarcely at all convex. The body whorl is large, being broad and tumid, but not long, with a tumidly conical lop-sided base, ending in a short, broad, flat snout which is abruptly and straight cut off. The suture islinear, but well defined by the swelling of the infrasutural row of tubercles.
The inner lip is thin and narrow. The columella is smooth. Sculpture : The 1st whorl of the protoconch is smooth, the 2nd crossed by threads which, beginning at the upper suture, pass first longitudinally and singly, then at the periphery bifurcate, each branch passing obliquely to the suture, thus reticulating the lower half. The adult whorls are entirely reticulated by axial ribs, about 8 on the first whorl and 20 on the body whorl, overridden by less prominent and narrower spiral ribs, forming transverse beads at the intersections.
Davis and Geck's most significant contribution to the surgical field was the invention of the synthetic absorbable suture. Its Dexon brand of sutures, introduced in the 1970s, was made with a man made organic material called polyglycolic acid. This new category of suture product reduced a surgeon's reliance on animal derived "catgut" sutures which have inconsistent strength properties and can often cause significant wound irritation to patients. The company was also known for its contribution to the field of surgery due to its operation of the Davis & Geck Film library.
The spiral sculpture consists numerous fine, subequal, flattisb threads with narrower interspaces, which cover the whole shell. To these are added a thickened ridge which borders the anterior margin of the suture, and on the spire a peripheral nodose keel, which is less marked on the body whorl, where it forms the shoulder.oO the penultimate whorl there are twenty of these nodules. Other axial sculpture is furnished by line, short, sharp elevated wrinkles which cross retractively the ridge adjacent to the suture, like the "gathers" of a skirt, and become obsolete on the fasciole.
The ribs extend from the shoulder to the suture or, on the body whorl, to the base, where they become obsolete. These ribs are crossed on the spire by about six prominent spiral threads, subequal and with wider interspaces, often with a more minute intercalary thread, the primaries somewhat swollen on the summits of the ribs. On the body whorl the same sculpture extends over the whorl and upon the siphonal canal. The outer lip is thin, broadly arcuate, simple, with a rounded, shallow, anal sulcus close to the suture.
The length of the shell varies between 4.5 mm and 8 mm; its diameter 2.1 mm. (Original description) The polished, shining shell contains (including the protoconch) 6½ whorls. The protoconch is madder-brown, smooth, rather large, blunt, with 1½ whorls. The remainder is transversely ribbed with 8–10 smooth, rounded, nearly straight, stout ribs, extending from suture to suture, which begin with the end of the protoconch part, and fail at the last third of the body whorl, which is marked only by a silky fine incremental stride.
They extend well over the periphery of the whorl, and are evanescent on the siphonal canal. Other transverse sculpture comprises only fine lines of growth which are not parallel to but more oblique than the aforesaid ribs, and reticulate prettily the spiral threads. The whorls are but little inflated, having a very regular taper, slightly appressed at the distinct but not deep suture. The aperture is more than one third as long as the shell, polished within, with a deep broad notch, slightly in advance of the suture, whose edges are produced and considerably reflected.
The subsequent whorls are glistening, constricted and appressed at the suture. These whorls contain (on the penultimate whorl eighteen) arcuate and protractive axial ribs which extend from the suture to the siphonal canal except over the last half of the body whorl. The constriction which indicates the anal fasciole gives the posterior edge of the whorl a marginate appearance, but does not interrupt the ribs, which are very prominent in front of the fasciole at the shoulder. The whole surface is evenly sculptured by strongly incised, almost channelled lines, with wider, flat, strap-like interspaces.
Near the siphonal canal these become narrower and cord-like and the channels wider, diminishing again toward the end of the canal. The spiral sculpture does not nodulate the ribs, but is minutely crenulated on the eminences by fine, even, incremental lines. The aperture is short, wide, with a deep rounded anal sulcus next the suture, a thin and much produced outer lip, a short, slightly recurved, flaring siphonal canal. The arcuate columella is callous, white and smooth, with a conspicuous nodule on the body between the sulcus and the suture.
The suture is linear, but strongly defined by the constriction and impressed angulation of the shell at that point. The aperture is perpendicular, nearly square. The outer lip sharp and thin, not patulous, not descending. The curves are very faintly indicated by the lines of growth, but are similar to those described in Seguenzia formosa Jeffreys, 1876, there being three sinuses, one near the suture between the first and second spinose thread, a second, very small but sharp, at the carina, and a third toward the exterior of the base.
The nasal bones in the upper part of the nose are joined together by the midline internasal suture. They join with the septal cartilage at a junction known as the rhinion. The rhinion is the midpoint of the internasal suture at the join with the cartilage, and from the rhinion to the apex, or tip, the framework is of cartilage. The major alar cartilages are thin, U-shaped plates of cartilage on each side of the nose that form the lateral and medial walls of the vestibule, known as the medial and lateral crura.
The ulna was compressed sideways, flatter than the radius, and about long as preserved. Stereo photos and diagrams showing the femora of PM120/107 The contact from the ischium to the ilium and pubis of the pelvis was not fused, and the front end of the ischium formed a rugose suture. The pubis was roughly triangular, with a rough suture for the ilium above and a deep groove for the ischium at the lower front. Specimen PM120/107's pelvic bones differed from those of other multituberculates in not being fused together.
Outside the row of hole, s the usual sulcus is strongly marked. About midway from the suture to the lines of holes is a raised rib, rather obscure, but differing in different individuals and corresponding to an internal sulcus. Between the central ridges and the suture there are no undulations or transverse ridges of consequence. The sculpture of the shell shows a well marked, rather flattish, spiral, close-set threads, sometimes with a single finer intercalary thread, overlaid by smaller rather compressed transverse ridges, in harmony with the incremental lines.
There have been cases where there are various techniques for surgical procedures and can be performed on children and adults. One of the techniques for repair is by using a double armed polypropylene suture, where the suture is left externally on the sclera with a knot buried in the scleral flap. This technique allows posterior fixation of intraocular lens implants in the absence of capsular support. Another technique for surgery is called pupilloplasty, where the patient would be placed under retrobulbar anesthesia with the pupils being dilated with 1% tropicamide.
In infants where one or more of the sutures fuses too early the growth of the skull is restricted, resulting in compensation mechanisms which cause irregular growth patterns. Growth in the skull is perpendicular to the sutures. When a suture fuses too early, the growth perpendicular to that suture will be restricted, and the bone growth near the other sutures will be stimulated, causing an abnormal head shape. The expanding brain is the main stimulus for the rapid growth of the skull in the first years of life.
If a scaphocephaly is diagnosed within 4 to 5 months after birth, it can be corrected with a relatively simple procedure whereby the sagittal suture is surgically reopened. Once the suture has been opened the bone segments will be able to grow again and the head can regain its normal shape. This operation is only performed on patients younger than five months old with a scaphocephaly. This is due to the fact that the bone segments only have the ability to adapt so severely when the operation is performed at this young age.
Advances in the fields of molecular biology and genetics, as well as the use of animal models have been of great importance in expanding our knowledge of suture fusion. Research in animal models has led to the idea that the dura mater plays an important role in determining closure or patency of the suture. In contrast to the dura mater it appears that the periosteum is not essential in causing closure or patency. Instead of describing the abnormalities in structure and form, research focuses nowadays at decoding the molecular interactions that underlie them.
The spiral sculpture of, on the upper surface of the last whorl, two small and two strong spiral alternated ribs, one of the smaller just below the suture; a large spiral on the periphery and four on the base. These are crossed by numerous obliquely radiating threads, which make the early whorls coarsely reticulate with nodules at the intersections, while in the later whorls the radiations become less marked and the spirals more numerous and more conspicuously nodulous. The whorls are rounded, while the apex is a little blunt. The suture is distinct, not channelled.
Three strong spirals girdle the whorls. The one at the shoulder is strongly beaded; one at the middle of the whorl is minutely undulate, and the third at the suture is simple, and obscured on all the whorls but the last by the suture being laid against it. On the body whorl there may be a few microscopic spiral threadlets between the shoulder and the median spiral. Between the anterior spiral and the edge of the umbilicus on the base there are six or eight fine-channeled spiral grooves.
Where the middle segments touched each other on the midline, an irregular punctuated row of small trapezium-shaped "interstitial" osteoderms was present within the suture. At the front of the suture of the first cervical halfring, a small cone-shaped interstitial osteoderm protruded. Such interstitial elements were absent with the side segments. Specimen NMMNH P-66930, a first cervical halfring, shared several traits with its counterpart of the holotype: high narrow keels, interstitial osteoderms in the middle and a lower side osteoderm that does not wrap around the lower edge.
In front of the eye, the right and left facial sutures connect in front of the inflated glabella and consequently the free cheeks (or librigenae) are yoked as a single piece. In some of the eyeless genera (Ductina) the suture coincides with the marginal suture, and thus appears to be absent. The part of the skeleton that is "tucked under" (the doublure) has no sutures crossing it to form a rostral plate. The thorax has 11 (rarely 10) segments, the side lobes (or pleurae) are furrowed, and the articulating facets distinct.
When the adult emerges, the fluid is withdrawn, the ptilinum collapses, and the membrane retracts entirely back inside the head. The large, inverted, "U"-shaped suture in the face through which it came, however, is still quite visible, and the name "Schizophora" ("split-bearers") is derived from this ptilinal or frontal suture. The term was first used by Eduard Becher. In contrast to eggs of other arthropods, most insect eggs are drought-resistant, because inside the maternal chorion, two additional membranes develop from embryonic tissue, the amnion and the serosa.
The final step of reconstruction ligament fixation is the proximal tibial attachment of the sMCL. This soft-tissue attachment can be reproduced with a suture anchor placed 12.2 mm distal to the medial joint line (average location), directly medial to the anterior arm of the semimembranosus tibial attachment. Once this aspect of the sMCL is secured to the suture anchor, the knee is put through range of motion testing by the physician to determine the "safe zone" of knee motion which is used during the first post- operative day rehabilitation (below).
Eduard Becher (30 September 1856, Vienna - 11 November 1886, Vienna) was an Austrian entomologist who worked on Diptera. He was the author of an article entitled 'Zur Kenntnis der Kopfbildung der Dipteren' ("Contribution to the knowledge of the head formation of the Diptera") Wiener Entomologische Zeitung, 1: 49-54 (1882). In this he identified the divisions of the Cyclorrhapha, Aschiza and Schizophora, a division he based on differences in the frontal region of the head. Aschiza have no ptilinum or associated suture, Schizophora have both ptilinum and its suture.
The geology of the suture includes Jurassic marine shale and conglomeratic strata, melange and ophiolites and volcanic rocks from multiple pulses of magmatism. Each of these lithologies can be tied to specific terranes, either island arcs or microcontinents, that were gathered in front of the Indian subcontinent as it drifted northward during the Mesozoic. During the Jurassic-Cretaceous collision of the Lhasa and Qiangtang terranes, the ancient Tethys ocean closed, creating the Bangong suture zone. Oceanic lithosphere (the Meso-Tethys) was consumed during this collision and subducted under the Qiangtang terrane.
VI; Philadelphia, Academy of Natural Sciences (Original description) The shell has a shortly fusiform shape and has a brownish horn-colour. The whorls are nearly flat, strongly keeled a little below the middle, and above at the suture, with one or two thread-like spiral lirae in the spaces between these two carinae and between the subcentral one and the suture below it. The lines of growth are moderately distinct, raised, flexuous, and more or less oblique. The nucleus (or the three apical whorls) is smooth, glassy, shining, convex.
Geological map of north-western Canada. Snowbird Tectonic Zone marked F The Snowbird Tectonic Zone (STZ) is a geological structure in the western Canadian Shield which forms a geophysical boundary between the Hearne Craton and the south-west arm of the Rae Craton. It is enigmatic and has been interpreted as a Proterozoic suture or escape structure, or an Archaean suture reactivated during either the Archaean or Palaeoproterozic. It stretches from the Canadian Cordillera north-east to Hudson Bay, diagonally crossing Alberta, Saskatchewan, the Northwest Territories, and Nunavut.

In neurosurgery, Dandy's point is a common entry point for occipital burr hole. It is located lateral to the midline and above the inion. In infants this usually corresponds with the lambdoid suture in the mid pupillary line.
Perhaps another possible explanation of the name is the combination of the words cattle and gut. B Braun Medical AG, a German Multi National company first industrialized catgut suture and Catgut is a brand registered with B Braun.
The shell grows to a height of 3 mm, its diameter 6 mm. The solid shell has a depressed conoid shape. The four whorls are smooth, flatly convex, slightly hollowed just below the suture. The apex is blunt.
They differs from Dactylioceratinae by suture. While Reynesocoeloceratinae has on dorsal side of external lobe two major secondary lobes, this is not so in Dactylioceratinae, as there is external saddle not divided, while lateral lobe is strongly trifid.
Anticlimax reinaudi has a very small (<1.5 mm), depressed shell, formed by 3 whorls of rapid growth, separated by a scarcely marked suture. The ornamentation consists of spiral cords, ribs and axial striae. The shell aperture is quadrangular.

A pledgeted suture is one that is supported by a pledget, that is, a small flat non-absorbent pad normally composed of polytetrafluoroethylene, used as buttresses under sutures when there is a possibility of sutures tearing through tissue.
The size of the shell varies between 3 mm and 5 mm. The thin, oblong shell is whitish, smooth and shining. The sixwhorls are slightly convex with their suture opaquely margined. The columella has a very slight fold.
Between the suture and the fasciole is a spiral ridge which tends to break up into beads opposite the ribs. The aperture is narrow. The sinus is C-shaped. A thick callus knob occurs at the right insertion.
Sänger used silver and silk thread as suture material. Silver sutures had been introduced into medicine by the American gynecologist James Marion Sims (1813-1883). Sänger was originally Jewish, but later converted to Lutheranism.”Nu er jeg beskeden.
