Have documented gastroc/soleus contractures in ortho words and phrases by HPI. Can type as gastroc/soleus or gastrocsoleus. I generally hear this term in conjunction with "complex" rather than "contractures."

chemoneurolysis and muscle lengthenings in both legs. The doc says:

The hip adductors were then lengthened, bringing the range from about 15-20 degrees s/l grab out to 65 degrees s/l grab which is a pretty good change considering the age of the patient.

I have always heard the index finger referred to as the trigger finger.  Based on the assumption, the trigger/index finger is different than the ring finger.  I have never heard any other finger referred to with that label, but that doesn't mean I am right.

The doctor is referring to the condition "trigger finger", not the index finger. He is saying she has right ring trigger finger. Meaning that finger most likely catches or locks down with movement. I had it also and they surgically released it.
