If you are referring to one side of the buttocks, it is buttock, as in "left buttock?"
I also have typed buttock for 1 and buttocks for both sm

but then questioned myself and looked in all my medical references and none of them have "buttock" only "buttocks."  I'll just stick to what I have been doing.  Thanks!

Doubt antistigmatic--not a word. Astigmatism is something entirely different. There is no reference in Stedman's ophth for antistigmatic, but do believe they mean nystagmus for "eyes jump." Can you leave a blank? The author apparently doesn't know the correct word to use. Maybe the context of the sentence will help you.

the great thing about MT'g is you always learn -doing this 23+ yrs and there were things I was doing wrong for years,  cause I just didn't know, and back in 1985 the AAMT Book of Style was 85 pages long - I HAVE ONE....*l*  It's a never-ending field for learning for me, really all of us if you think about it,  all the time and if I can help, I want to help; yet I'm still not as knowledgeable as some other posters, so I keep an open mind to keep on learning....*S*
