circumferentially
Along the perimeter
In a manner following or relating to a circumference—the boundary of a circle or curved surface.
The word describes movement or arrangement around something rather than through it: The cable wraps circumferentially around the drum.
Medical usage often describes tissue surrounding organs or vessels: The artery was circumferentially diseased.
