A trabecula is a small bundle of bone or connective tissue. It is a small, delicate structure that provides additional support to larger bones in the body.<br><br>In anatomy, trabeculae (the plural form of trabecula) refer to the network of small, spongy bone tissue that fills the medullary cavities of many bones, particularly in the long bones of the skeleton. Trabeculae are composed of compacted bone tissue that provides structural support and helps to distribute weight and stress more efficiently throughout the bone.<br><br>Trabeculae are often visible in the bones of the skull, vertebrae, and long bones, such as the femur (thigh bone) or the humerus (upper arm bone). They are an important feature of bone anatomy and play a crucial role in maintaining bone strength and density.

Trabeculae

speak

In anatomy, trabeculae refer to a group of small, branching rods or threads of bone tissue that provide support and structural integrity to the spongy interior of bones, particularly in compact bone. They are a type of bone structure that facilitates the exchange of nutrients and waste products between the bone and the surrounding tissues.<br><br>In the context of the eye, trabeculae are a network of fine tissue filaments that play a crucial role in the drainage of aqueous humor, a clear fluid that nourishes the eye and maintains its pressure. The trabecular meshwork, as it is also known, functionally helps to regulate intraocular pressure by siphoning the aqueous humor out of the eye and into the bloodstream.

Trabecular

speak

A term from anatomy.<br><br>"Trabecular" refers to a specific type of bone structure or tissue that is composed of small, weak bones or trabeculae, which provide skeletal support and fill the cavities between the dense cortical bone of the skeleton. The trabecular bone is often found in the ends of long bones, such as the femur (thigh bone) and the pelvic bones, as well as the vertebral bodies.<br><br>The term "trabecular" is derived from the Latin word "trabecula," which means "little beam" or "little rod." It was first used in the 15th century in the context of anatomy to describe the small, mesh-like structures within bones.<br><br>In medical imaging, such as X-rays or CT scans, the trabecular pattern of the bones can be observed to assess bone density and identify any potential issues, such as osteoporosis or bone metastases.

In dentistry, trabeculation can refer to the formation of small, corrugations or striations on the surface of a tooth or bone.

Trabeculations

speak

Trabeculations refer to the tiny, branching channels or fibers that are found in various tissues, particularly in the eyes, where they are a characteristic feature of the corneal and iridal stroma. In the context of the eye, trabeculations are essentially the outgrowths of the trabecular meshwork, a spongy tissue into which the aqueous humor of the eye is drained before it leaves the eye through the trabecular meshwork, a process characterized by the drainage system's maintenance of consistent pressure within the eye.

Trabecule

speak

A trabecule is a thread-like or thread-like structure, typically cylindrical or whisker-like in shape, often found in various natural and biological contexts.<br><br>In anatomy, a trabecule can refer to the trabeculae, a type of bony spicule or rod that helps to support the structure of bones, especially in the spongy interior of the bone.<br><br>In ophthalmology, a trabecule refers to a thread-like structure in the eye that helps to drain fluid from the eye, specifically the trabecular meshwork, a network of tiny tubes that collect aqueous humor and drain it out of the eye.<br><br>In engineering, a trabecule can refer to a type of filigree or small thread-like element used in architecture, particularly in the construction of fine details or ornamentation.<br><br>In general, the term "trabecule" suggests the presence of small, thread-like or cylindrical structures that reinforce or add intricate detail to a larger structure.

Trabeculectomy

speak

A trabeculectomy is a surgical procedure used to treat glaucoma, a condition where fluid pressure in the eye increases and can damage the optic nerve and lead to vision loss.<br><br>During a trabeculectomy, an surgeon makes a new drainage channel in the eye called a bleb, which allows the excess fluid (aqueous humor) in the eye to drain into a sac. This reduces the pressure in the eye and helps to prevent further damage to the optic nerve.<br><br>The procedure is usually performed on people with glaucoma who have not responded to other treatments, such as eye drops or medications, or who have developed glaucoma at a late stage. In some cases, a trabeculectomy may also be performed as part of a combined procedure with cataract surgery.

Trabeculoplasty

speak

Trabeculoplasty is a medical procedure used to treat glaucoma, a group of eye conditions that can cause vision loss and blindness due to increased pressure in the eye.<br><br>In this procedure, a laser is used to open up the channels in the eye called the trabecular meshwork, which allows fluid to drain out of the eye. This helps to reduce the pressure inside the eye and prevent further damage to the optic nerve.<br><br>There are two types of trabeculoplasty:<br><br>1. Argon laser trabeculoplasty (ALT): This is the most common type, which uses a blue light laser to treat the trabecular meshwork.<br>2. Selective laser trabeculoplasty (SLT): This type uses a green light laser and is more gentle and effective for some patients.<br><br>Trabeculoplasty is usually performed in a doctor's office or clinic, and the entire procedure typically takes 20-30 minutes to complete. The patient is usually given eye drops to numb the eye before the procedure, and there is no need for stitches or bandages afterward.

Trabeculotomy

speak

Trabeculotomy is a surgical procedure to relieve intraocular pressure (IOP) in the eye by removing a trabecular meshwork blockage.<br><br>In ophthalmology, the trabecular meshwork is a network of tissue that helps regulate the drainage of the aqueous humor, a clear fluid that occupies the anterior and posterior chambers of the eye. Tr tubing is often caused by angle-closure glaucoma, a blockage of this drainage, which leads to elevated intraocular pressure (IOP) and can cause damage to the optic nerve.<br><br>During trabeculotomy, a surgeon creates a new pathway for the trabecular meshwork to drain the aqueous humor. The procedure is performed to reduce IOP and help prevent further damage to the optic nerve and to treat glaucoma.

Trabi

speak

The Trabant is a small, two-seat rear-engine, rear-wheel drive automobile, which was manufactured in East Germany by the VEB Sachsenring Automobilwerke Zwickau (Saurer East company) Zwickau for over three decades.
