Did you still get counted off or did you all call it a draw?

ileal conduit
Subject: ileal conduit
Not even Stedman's GI/GU books? My QA marked me off as a large deduction for putting ileal conduit and marked should be ileoconduit.

urinary diversion, but also lists ileoconduit.
Vera Pyle's 10th edition says:
"ileal conduit (not ileoconduit or ileo conduit)..." and goes on to describe the ileal conduit with regard to the segment of ileum used as a urinary reservoir in patients who have had cystectomy.

Per Stedman's GI/GU 3rd Edition, ileoconduit is correct.
ileoconduit versus ileal conduit
Subject: ileoconduit versus ileal conduit
Vera Pyle's Current Medical Terminology 7th edition says ileal conduit NOT ileoconduit. Does anyone know if this has changed to be accepted.
I should add that ileal conduit is listed in all three references.

Does anyone have a GI/GU book that lists ileoconduit? My QA does not like to be proved wrong. She took a large deduction for my putting ileal conduit. I am sending a QA review to have it looked at again, but she always comes up with a reference book from somewhere that has her word listed, so I'm just trying to save myself all the headache of submitting a QA review to find out it is listed somewhere ileoconduit.

I would just punctuate a bit differently, like:
Dissection then went to the cephalic aspect of the tumor and a clamp used to delineate it. The tumor was freed of the tissue overlying the innominate vein..... and so on, I think you are doing a good job!

couldn't have been in emails by posting for help from a mentor. If you'll notice on another forum on this website, I've pubically stated that I have mentored more than my share of newbies in the past. BUT, if you are posting entire reports, that would concern me from an MTSO standpoint as a breach of confidentiality even IF the patient's name and doctor's names have been deleted. I can tell it is a teaching/trauma hospital by the discharging service (so you can tell I'm not a newbie).
Also, do you know the people who run this board have to pay for the bandwidth of the posts here, so when you load it up with long reports, it costs them money.
BTW, yes, I've been in every setting possible in the health care industry other than doing procedures and practicing medicine and there wasn't someone there who enabled me and kept me from devloping my research skills. I do think you are now trained like Pavlov's dogs to come here and ask questions rather than do a little research (which could have been helpful especially with a simple word like posttussive)...just do some research first.
Another thought I had was that you might not be working for a service yet but simply doing classwork/homework and if people here are going to do it for you, then how exactly do you feel you've earned your grade (or if employed, your salarly?)

Could it possibly be "Ludwig's angina" -- which can be a complication of oral abscesses. I know that is a stretch from your s/l, but would make sense.
Your question had me googling for about an hour last night -- love to try and figure out things I don't know! if you ever find out the correct word, let us know.
Have a great day.
