- Alloplasty — A general surgical method or technique whereby substance defects, tissue losses, or compromised organs are corrected, prosthetized, or replaced by introducing inert foreign materials of a non-biological nature into the organism. This structural concept encompasses all operations involving the implantation of prostheses (joint, valvular) and inert synthetic grafts.
- Placement — The act of locating and its result; the technical, administrative, and spatial process through which the exact position of a building, facility, monument, or object on a specific plot of land is established.

- Aneurysmoplasty — A high-precision surgical intervention consisting of the structural reconstruction, plastic repair, or remodeling of the wall of a blood vessel affected by an aneurysm.

- Antitragus — A small, cartilaginous prominence located on the pinna of the external ear (auricle), situated symmetrically at the lower part of the antihelix and placed directly opposite the tragus, from which it is separated by the intertragic notch. This fine anatomical structure plays a decorative and functional role in helping direct sound waves into the external auditory canal and also represents a common landmark in modern piercing procedures.
- Antoptosis — An abnormal downward displacement or pathological sagging of an anterior anatomical structure or an organ located in the frontal part of the body. This structural phenomenon occurs as a result of the weakening of the supporting ligaments or surrounding muscular tissues, frequently requiring clinical imaging diagnosis and therapeutic intervention to restore the normal physiological position.
