parallel to the coronal plane in an
esophageal location at the T8 level.

part of the hand
Anterior
Dorsal

and ulna with 100%
dorsal displacement of
the distal fragments.
Epiphysis- relating to a part of a long bone developed from
a center of ossification distinct from the shaft(Often called
a growth plate)

coronal & sagittal planes resulting in upper and lower
parts
375, 380, 391, 667
Inferior- below in relation to another structure; caudal

There is a 3 part intertrochanteric fx of the L hip. In
addition , there are ipsilateral L superior and inferior
pubic rami Fx s

pubic rami Fx s

Lateral- on the side; farther from the median or
midsaggital plane
There is a spiral fx of the lateral
malleolus at the level of the mortise
with approx 2 mm of displacement of
the distal fragment. There is also
widening of the medial joint mortise.
Longitudinal—aligned lengthwise; any plane perpendicular to
the transverse plane
Medial- relating to the middle or center; nearer the
median or midsagittal plane
There is an old chip fx off the 1st
toe, proximal phalanx, distal
end , medial aspect . There is a
new Fx of the 5th toe, prox
phalanx which is angulated.
This is a bimallleolar fx of
the L ankle. The medial
malleolus has a transverse
Fx that is non displaced.
Metaphysis- relating to the growth zone between the
epiphysis and the diaphysis during development of a bone
Neck- any constricted portion having a fancied
resemblance to the neck of an animal
Femoral
Humeral
Metacarpal
Metatarsal
Radial
Fibular
There is an oblique, minimally
displaced fx of the neck of the
3rd metacarpal
There is a fx of the R
femoral neck.
Occipital- relating to the back of the head
There is a fracture of the skull extending from
the L temporal area to the high occiptal portion
of the skull.
Palmar- volar; the flexor or anterior surface of the hand
There is a Fx of the
distal radius and ulna
with palmar
displacement of the
distal fragments.
Parietal- relating to the wall of any cavity
Plantar- relating to the sole of the foot
Posterior- behind or after in place
There is an obvious posterior dislocation of the elbow present.
Proximal- nearest the trunk or the point of origin
There is a non displaced
transverse Fx of the prox
1/3 of the humerus
There is an angulated
transverse fx of the neck of
the 5th proximal phalanx
Radial- relating to the lateral aspect of the upper limb
There is a Fx of the L radial
neck.
The thumb is
part of the
radial aspect
of the hand.
.
Rostral- situated at or directed toward the anterior (snout)
end of any organism
Sagittal- a plane that goes from top to bottom dividing an
object into a right and a left side.
1405, 1406
There is no sagittal deviation
for this metal FB(coin) lodged in
the distal 1/3 esophagus.
Superior- above in relation to another structure; cephalic,
(higher)
There are a superior and inferior pubic rami fx present in
this view ofthepelvis.
Transverse- horizontal; lying across the body part in a
horizontal plane.
