surgical history s/l all-tee
Subject: surgical history s/l all-tee
Patient is being seen for balance problems. There is a lot of focus in the report on various tests and her previous tethered cord, lumbar stenosis, laminectomy, etc.
Past surgical history includes: "repair of a spinal fluid leak and (s/l all-tee) then the lumbar spine fusion."
Any ideas as to what the all-tee might be? At first I thought it was the doctor stumbling over her words, but upon re-listening, I'm not so sure!

Past history would cover you on all corners. Did the doc dictate any history? Unless she has significant OB/GYN pathology, which the doc would probably make note of, vaginal bleeding and "path" history don't go together. Hope that helped.
