A Baker's cyst, or popliteal cyst, is a fluid-filled sac in the popliteal fossa, usually located between the semimembranosus tendon and the medial head of the gastrocnemius muscle.
Ovarian cyst puncture is the removal of the cyst contents with a needle, most often under ultrasound guidance, usually through a transvaginal approach.
Follicular puncture is a minimally invasive procedure in which a doctor, under ultrasound guidance, inserts a thin needle through the vaginal wall into the ovary, aspirates follicular fluid, and passes it on to embryologists to search for eggs.
Oocyte aspiration is the retrieval of eggs from the ovaries after controlled hormonal stimulation. In modern reproductive medicine, the procedure is usually performed transvaginally, through the vagina, under ultrasound guidance.
Oral rehydration is the replenishment of water and electrolytes through the mouth using a special solution that contains glucose, sodium, potassium, and other essential components.
An umbilical hernia in an adult is not just a case of "weak abdominal muscles," but a defect in the abdominal wall through which fat or a loop of intestine protrudes outward.
A non-surgical approach to umbilical hernia isn't a single treatment plan for all patients, but rather several different strategies. In children, this usually involves watchful waiting, as the umbilical hernia often closes on its own as the baby grows.
In everyday speech, the expression "post-umbilical hernia bandage" usually refers to a postoperative abdominal bandage that is worn after umbilical hernia repair in an adult.
