1 For example, the vast Pantanal, in the heart of South America, is kept rich and muddy by the avulsing Taquari River.

2 “His left hand was completely avulsed with part of the bones attached to the body while the hand skin and muscle got detached,” Dr. Abhishek Ghosha, a micro-vascular surgeon who treated the boy, said.

3 In the last seven thousand years, the river has avulsed six times, and each time it has set about laying down a new bulge of land.

4 The X-ray showed that a bit of bone had avulsed from his pelvis.

5 His previous revised UCL did not need repairing and the avulsed medial epicondyle fracture was cleaned up and repaired.

6 “Rivers are perturbed all the time but only avulse if they are set up by enough deposition,” he says.

9 Bodkin mentions the case of a woman of sixty who fell on the key in a door and completely avulsed her eye.

10 So if an avulsing river encounters an old channel, he says, it is likely to colonize it.

11 Computer analyses and laboratory models of rivers and deltas have yielded insights into where major rivers tend to avulse—and when.

12 All the tendons in relation to the upper end of the humerus are stretched or torn, and the great tuberosity is not infrequently avulsed.

13 An alternative procedure consists in avulsing segments of the vein by means of Babcock's stylet, which consists of a flexible steel rod, 30 inches in length, with acorn-shaped terminals.

14 Being hooked at one of its extremities the iron became entangled in either the inferior oblique or external rectus muscles, and completely avulsed the eyeball upon the cheek.

15 The real world agrees: The Mississippi has avulsed in central Louisiana about once every 1400 years, creating large delta lobes across the Gulf Coast.

16 Geographers had already noticed that rivers tend to avulse at the foot of mountains, where slopes change dramatically and sediment settles out, silting up the bed.

17 All the muscles attached to the upper end of the humerus are liable to be torn, and the tuberosities are frequently avulsed.

18 In the Surgical Museum at Edinburgh there is preserved a thumb and part of the flexor longus pollicis attached, which were avulsed simultaneously.

19 Nunnely has seen the little finger together with the tendon and body of the longer flexor muscle avulsed by machinery.
