Posted By: Sheryl on 2005-08-16
In Reply to:
The patient is scheduled for a lateral "trans" sphincterotomy for chronic fissure.
I cannot find any reference to "trans-" or "trans" infront of sphincterotomy. Help!!! TIA

lateral "trans" sphincterotomy
Patient has an anal fissure. Schedule for what sounds like "lateral trans sphincterotomy". Anyone heard of the "trans" part? Maybe that is not what she says. TIA

I just don't understand the fissurectomy. He is a clear speaking doctor so there's really no trouble hearing what he says.

fissure or fistula
Subject: fissure or fistula
I'm a little confused, the doctor dictates "He is at a point where he is disabled by the anal fissure pain, and I have recommended surgery in terms of an anal fissurectomy and lateral internal sphincterotomy.
There is no such thing as an anal fissurectomy but I swear that is what he is saying, and I would think it would be a fistulectomy but through the whole dictation it sounds like he is saying fissure. I am a little confused with this. Any ideas or help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
