Dr. dictates - The patient had a CT of his abdomen and pelvis, which showed significant s/l "hematosis intestinatus".   TIA!

I have come across this word a couple of times and always have difficulty remembering the spelling. Google does not help much either.

This is an OP lumarb spine, and he states that a "Coke-er" was placed at the L4-5 disc space. Can anyone help me find a way to remember the spelling of this? Thank you!

This is the third report I've done and all 3 times I keep hearing the same thing but can't find this.  After the patient is brought to the OR and placed in lateral position, appropriate _____ were placed.  It s/l he is saying myotoimes or monotomes are placed.  I'm thinking it may be ? drains.  I am just stumped on this one and any help will be appreciated.

The doctor is giving the results of an MR scan and states there is a posity of results.  Is posity really a word? 

Lower airway examination: Trachea s/l recourser??? was within normal limits. I can't find any such reference to a trachea recourser. Please help!

the patient had an implanted pacemaker which is not eluded to here.  Just a note, adenosine is not capitalized except to start a sentence.

Maybe you will hear something back.

"CPK and _______ were negative"  s/l intraconals??

Still on the pulmonologist's report...

What kind of surgery is it? If he used "lap" laparotomy pads may be the second one. They usually say sponge, needle and instrument counts. Will keep thinking on this one. Type of surgery would help.

Vocal cord lesion biopsy -

Peripheral -s/l orb or oral- sinuses were intubated to their apices and were normal.

Specimen was sent -s/l informal- and for pathology.

TIA!

OP report, lumbar spine

Next, fluoroscopy was used to place new screws at the L2-3 segment.  Starting points were identified at the confluence of the midpoint of the transverse process, the **manloid** process, and the pars interarticularis

He really mumbles through this part, so I am just not sure, but I have not heard this term used before. Thanks!

FINDINGS:  Epidurogram revealed normal (s/l-cephaloquadet-) contrast flow outlining the right L5 nerve root sleeve in the epidural space with good flow achieved medial to the right L5 pedicle.  The patient did experience some concordant L5 symptoms on the right side during the injection.  Vital signs remained stable throughout. 

Patient was premedicated with intravenous s/l Benadryl. 

Would that be right?

I never do op notes!  The sentence reads:

The S/L RAFFAY between the anterior and middle deltoids was then opened.  TIA!

The patient has focal severe slowing primarily in sensory fibers in the right upper extremity, on multiple restimulation unable to elicit a response to both s/l "Palmar 8" studies. 

I can't find this anywhere.  Anybody have any ideas?  Thanks!

The patient has a 4 mm calcification on the pelvis on the right which may represent a s/l flevolith, thus a right ureteral calculus could not be entirely occluded. 

general s/l elam anesthesia. New to OP reports! TIA

I tried to dilate the urethra with  s/l male sounds, but they would not pass easily due to the false passes. (Talking about bladder stones).

He says it clearly, but I've never heard of these nor can I find it.  Can't find anything under "Mayo" either thinking perhaps it was an instrument of some kind. 

The findings of the daily CXR on this patient are stable and unchanged, but the dictator gets to the "impression" and says:  s/l peri-grass--ity of the chest radiograph. 

I'm sure this is something simple and I should know it - it's probably a "normal" word.  But my brain is just not working tonight.  Help?
