normal said. For example, if it says "breasts are soft and pendulous", you might want to leave that out. Men generally don't have pendulous breasts, not even ones with gynecomastia. If it simply refers to the fact that there are no masses or nipple discharge, I would probably leave it in.
If you're still unsure, you can always flag it and find out for future reference.

I can't find anything even when I separate it out like the OP said. I would like to learn what this word means if somebody could help me out. Should it be xanth with an h instead of just xant? Even trying that, I am still stuck.

Subject: correct forms
Staph aureus (notice Staph is capitalized; a period is not necessary)
postop (no period)
When you have a 2-word bacteria name, the first word is capitalized generally. The second word is generally not capitalized.
A Stedman's manual for Infectious Disease words is quite useful for these words.
Klebsiella
Staphylococcus

use of bilateral with pleural forms
Subject: use of bilateral with pleural forms
That's always ben a puzzle to me too, but I think that either way might be acceptable. The qualifying adjective (bilateral) suggests an "augmentation" was performed on both sides, and more often than not, MDs will dictate singular nouns following bilateral. Sometimes, though, if it sounds strange, I will use the pleural, i.e., one of my docs says "bilateral lower extremity" which I change to extremities. Would be interested in further input or if AAMT has a directive on this.
