Spanish term

sellado óseo

Spanish to English Medical Medical (general) Bone development
Previamente se demostró que en los casos de senescencia, tanto en rata como en ratón, las placas de crecimiento conservaban la estructura histológica viable sin que hubiese signos de crecimiento longitudinal del hueso (Kalu et al., 1983).
Estos mismos autores mostraron que sobre el borde metafisario de la zona hipertrófica de la placa de crecimiento se asocia la presencia de una banda de hueso conocida por sellado óseo (Kalu et al.,1983).

I have "bone seal" but am not confident. Thoughts?

@Hernan That was the first thing that sprang to mind when I saw the query, I ran a Google search for "bone sealing" and there are thirty-six thousand results, FWIW.

Bone sealing I think you should translated as bone sealing:

bone fusion

As I'm sure you know, ServingMed, the word normally used for two bones joining is fusion. Having you considered it here?
It applies to both bones fusing intentionally after orthopaedic surgery or naturally during normal physiological development, such as a baby's skull or hips.


"In humans, the first elements to fuse are the ischium and pubis, which unite anteriorly to form the ischiopubic ramus between 4 and 8 years of age. Next, the ilium fuses to the combined ischiopubic portion at the acetabulum between 11 and 15 years in females and 14 to 17 years in males to form the os coxa. The secondary ossification centers in the pelvis are complex due to the union of the three bones at the acetabulum."

Alternatively, maybe "una banda de hueso conocida por sellado óseo" is a funny way of saying "ossification centre"; this is certainly a more scientific term compared to bone "sealing region", if indeed they mean the same thing.

neutral Neil Ashby : I haven't looked into "seal region", but it sounds like a poor man's "ossification centre".
