Relating to, resembling, or having the form or characteristics of a cannula.
Formed from 'cannula' plus the suffix '-ar' (resembling or relating to). This adjective form allows medical professionals to describe tube-like structures or properties.
Creating adjectives by adding '-ar' is so common in English that we barely notice it—similar, solar, regular—but it's especially useful in medicine for describing things shaped like medical instruments.
