The classic objectives of healing in avian orthopedics are the same as those in mammalian orthopedics: 1) rigid fixation, 2) good alignment, 3) good
apposition, 4) asepsis, and 5) early return to function.

apposition of the thumb to forearm and passive dorsal hyperextension of the metacarpophalangeal joint >90[degrees] (Beighton score: questions 1 and 2).
The perikymata are the externalizations of enamel incremental lines (striae of Retzius) (Simmer & Hu), which are nothing more than lines that show the constant
apposition of the enamel during its secretion process (Fig.

CT scan showed good repositioning of the flap and edge to edge
apposition at two weeks after operation.
Submucosal
apposition is most important while considering intestinal anastomosis since it is recognized as strongest part of intestinal wall.
The presence of calcified coronary artery disease leads to suboptimal outcomes for all treatment options medical therapy, interventional treatment and cardiac surgery.1 For angioplasty with a stent, the presence of calcified lesions is associated with suboptimal lesion expansion, poor stent
apposition and complications including dissection, distal embolization, coronary hypoperfusion and procedural failure.
After implantation, the porous graft containment mesh is filled with bone graft to deploy the device in the anterior-posterior direction, which allows for a wide graft footprint, and in the superior-inferior direction to provide conforming
apposition with the vertebral endplates.
