Relating to surgical reconstruction or formation of tissue in anaerobic conditions, or capable of forming or reshaping without oxygen.
From Greek 'an-' (without) + 'aero' (air) + 'plastic' (from 'plassein' meaning to mold or form). This is a specialized medical term combining common root elements in surgery.
This term is quite rare in modern medicine, but it reflects a historical period when surgeons were experimenting with tissue reconstruction and oxygen availability—most modern surgical techniques focus on maintaining oxygen-rich environments instead.
