Coaptation

/koʊæpˈteɪʃən/ noun

Definition

The process or result of fitting two parts together precisely, especially in medicine when bone fragments or tissue edges are aligned.

Etymology

From coapt + -ation (suffix forming nouns of action), from Latin coaptatio. The term became standardized in medical terminology during the 16th-17th centuries.

Kelly Says

Perfect coaptation is literally the difference between a surgical scar and a nearly invisible surgical line—millimeters matter when tissues are trying to heal together.
