syndactylization and I think in this case, I would go ahead and give your doc her made up word. It's your call, though.

glissement, you won't get what you need. You need to limit your results to those that are relevant to your topic by adding associated terms to your search. Try the two words "glissement" and "knee" (without the quotes). There will be a lot of results in French, but even if you can't read French, you will be able to see that they are relevant to your topic. There are, however, a few that use "glissement" in an English context, which should give you more confidence. In any event, it's your initials on the report, so you handled it in the way that is most comfortable for you. I could be wrong, of course, but I suspect that it will turn out to be "glissement".
