UI	MeSH Term	Description	Entries
D007796	Laminectomy	A surgical procedure that entails removing all (laminectomy) or part (laminotomy) of selected vertebral lamina to relieve pressure on the SPINAL CORD and/or SPINAL NERVE ROOTS. Vertebral lamina is the thin flattened posterior wall of vertebral arch that forms the vertebral foramen through which pass the spinal cord and nerve roots.	Laminotomy,Laminectomies,Laminotomies
D008026	Ligation	Application of a ligature to tie a vessel or strangulate a part.	Ligature,Ligations,Ligatures

D001027	Aortography	Radiographic visualization of the aorta and its branches by injection of contrast media, using percutaneous puncture or catheterization procedures.	Aortographies
D001165	Arteriovenous Malformations	Abnormal formation of blood vessels that shunt arterial blood directly into veins without passing through the CAPILLARIES. They usually are crooked, dilated, and with thick vessel walls. A common type is the congenital arteriovenous fistula. The lack of blood flow and oxygen in the capillaries can lead to tissue damage in the affected areas.	Arteriovenous Malformation,Malformation, Arteriovenous,Malformations, Arteriovenous
