It is for a patient with knee pain and pleural effusion.  I put a (?) for the words I am not sure of.  Sentence is: "She was found to have medial subluxation of her left knee with lactrus(?) body in her suprapatellar pouch on her x-ray and repeat MRI done to her left knee showed large joint effusion, high signal(?) on lateral patellar facet(?) and a medial pararetinacama(?) suggestive of reduction of her subluxation."

This person has a reducible incisional hernia.  She is contemplating a third hernia repair surgery.  Doc dictates:


Any operation on her would be a fairly significant undertaking being a third hernia repair, both previous ones with mesh.  I would attempt this laparoscopically, but I realize there is a high chance that she has intraperitoneal adhesions or S/L: BOWEL inherent to her mesh.


Is that right?


Thanks in advance.
