The patient already has put a (s/l-shin-) into her shoe to raise the heel, and this apparently is comfortable. 

ESL doc, can't understand what it is.

Patient says it hurts when she swallows.  On the assessment, the doc says Painful "dysphyte fahjaw" for solids and liquids. 

Any ideas on this??

Thanks!

There is an indentation of the ventral ____ (s/l fecal or cecal) sac and the protrusion of that is the ventral medial aspect of the descending L5 nerve root.  They dont feel that it compresses the nerve root...

TIA

Patient is not intubated - is a clinic exam.

I can clearly hear the "lungs clear to auscultation and percussion" a bit after this section, so something is definitely there. 

Thanks.

Help, I'm stuck again. Sounds like Coway? And also Corinerel? Any ideas? Where is a good place on the web to look up drugs? Thanks!!

I am drawing a total blank here!

I know I have heard and typed this but here goes, the patient had knee arthroplasty and here is the sentence (it is the last word in bold) :

Postoperative complications did occur which included acute, temporary renal failure and the postoperative illius. 

Make any sense?

Thanks

A drug sounds like Zedarone?  I cannot find anything even close.  Pulling my hair out.

I have this surgeon dictating 3 or so times in this esophagus/stomach resection report about the gastric artery was tied s/l sufflag and then clamped using the right angle.  The left gastric artery was then divided and the s/l stick tie.  Have any ideas what these 2 words may be?

Thank you.

There is some palpable tenderness over the metacarpophalangeal joint and some along the _____ (s/l hallucis paulisus) ligament. 

TIA

The patient (s/l puked on a gonna) appendectomy, with localized right lower quadrant pain on the __, approximately 1 week previously, with a pathology report not suggestive of acute appendicitis. 

Hello,

I am stuck on a word,  maybe two words..not sure! This is for cataract closure, the procedure is phacoemulsification and peripheral iridotomy.

"A superior corenomy was performed and hemostasis was achieved with wet-field cautery."

It actually sounds like "supear corenomy" but I thought he may mean "superior". But I have no idea what the next word should be.

Any thoughts?

Thanks in advance :)
