French term or phrase: un peu à distance
dans la phrase "les lignes réactives correspondent à une corticalisation du tissu spongieux un peu à distance de l'implant". Le texte traite de prothèses de hanche : j'ai proposé "close to", le réviseur "at the implant" mais l'auteur a indiqué qu'il n'y a pas de contact, le tissu spongieux est un peu éloigné de l'implant. merci de votre aide.
