I have a new oncology account. All the docs say bilateral mastectomy. Shouldn't this be bilateral mastectomies?

1. Right simple mastectomy, sentinel lymph node dissection.
2. Left prophylactic mastectomy.
3. Immediate bilateral reconstruction with ??_________ s/l tissue exspanish, which is so weird. It's definitely not expanders or expansion so i'm totally lost.
Thanks for any help!

Only one mastectomy is being performed each on the right and left side. The same thing for bilateral tubal ligation, you would not put bilateral tubal ligations. If a person had four breasts and two were being removed from each side, then it would be bilateral mastectomies!

"Overall, the patient is doing fairly well, but she is a little bit overwhelmed by the fact that she had residual cancer at the time of her lumpectomy and _____ mastectomy."
It sounds like either "her cardiomastectomy" or "recardid mastectomy"...neither one makes sense though! lol.
Any thoughts??? Thanks!

In medicine, mastectomy is the medical term for the surgical removal of one or both breasts, partially or completely.
Bilateral means both and mastectomy is one or two. Do not need mastectomies even though the doc is saying it.

Hi,
I think you're right about cervix (vs. service)--apparently he's just pronouncing it a little slurry and it just makes more "sense".
I've listened and listened, but I'm certain that Babcock is not it even if he's saying it badly. I hear nothing at all prior to "koch".

My plastic surgeon did an abdominoplasty on someone with a port in place. She said "I was somewhat limited because of the position of her port as it was difficult to imbricate the muscle any more without ------- the port." It sounds like "burying" or "baring" (as in uncover). Any ideas? Thanks!
