UI	MeSH Term	Description	Entries
D007595	Joint Prosthesis	Prostheses used to partially or totally replace a human or animal joint. (from UMDNS, 1999)	Joint Prostheses,Prostheses, Joint,Prosthesis, Joint
D008023	Ligaments, Articular	Fibrous cords of CONNECTIVE TISSUE that attach bones to each other and hold together the many types of joints in the body. Articular ligaments are strong, elastic, and allow movement in only specific directions, depending on the individual joint.	Articular Ligament,Articular Ligaments,Ligament, Articular
D008855	Microscopy, Electron, Scanning	Microscopy in which the object is examined directly by an electron beam scanning the specimen point-by-point. The image is constructed by detecting the products of specimen interactions that are projected above the plane of the sample, such as backscattered electrons. Although SCANNING TRANSMISSION ELECTRON MICROSCOPY also scans the specimen point by point with the electron beam, the image is constructed by detecting the electrons, or their interaction products that are transmitted through the sample plane, so that is a form of TRANSMISSION ELECTRON MICROSCOPY.

D002358	Cartilage, Articular	A protective layer of firm, flexible cartilage over the articulating ends of bones. It provides a smooth surface for joint movement, protecting the ends of long bones from wear at points of contact.	Articular Cartilage,Articular Cartilages,Cartilages, Articular
D003238	Connective Tissue	Tissue that supports and binds other tissues. It consists of CONNECTIVE TISSUE CELLS embedded in a large amount of EXTRACELLULAR MATRIX.	Connective Tissues,Tissue, Connective,Tissues, Connective
D003239	Connective Tissue Cells	A group of cells that includes FIBROBLASTS, cartilage cells, ADIPOCYTES, smooth muscle cells, and bone cells.	Cell, Connective Tissue,Cells, Connective Tissue,Connective Tissue Cell
D005549	Foreign-Body Reaction	Chronic inflammation and granuloma formation around irritating foreign bodies.	Foreign Body Reaction,Reaction, Foreign-Body
D006621	Hip Joint	The joint that is formed by the articulation of the head of FEMUR and the ACETABULUM of the PELVIS.	Acetabulofemoral Joint,Acetabulofemoral Joints,Hip Joints,Joint, Acetabulofemoral,Joint, Hip,Joints, Acetabulofemoral,Joints, Hip
D006801	Humans	Members of the species Homo sapiens.	Homo sapiens,Man (Taxonomy),Human,Man, Modern,Modern Man
D001178	Arthroplasty	Surgical reconstruction of a joint to relieve pain or restore motion.	Bone Tunnel Enlargement,Bone Tunnel Widening,Arthroplasties,Bone Tunnel Enlargements,Bone Tunnel Widenings,Enlargement, Bone Tunnel,Tunnel Enlargement, Bone,Tunnel Widening, Bone,Widening, Bone Tunnel
