Etymology of CHILECTROPION

The word "chilectropion" does not have an established etymology as it appears to be a somewhat rare or specialized term. However, it can be broken down into two parts: "chil-" and "ectropion".

The prefix "chil-" likely originates from the Greek word "cheilos" meaning "lip". It is often used in medical terminology to refer to the lips or the oral cavity.

The term "ectropion" refers to the turning out or eversion of an anatomical structure, particularly the eyelid. It comes from the Greek word "ektropion" which means "to turn outward" or "to be turned inside out".

Therefore, "chilectropion" might be a combination of these two elements, suggesting the eversion or turning out of the lips.

Plural form of CHILECTROPION is CHILECTROPIONS
