Abdomen: There is a well-healed scar in the right lower corner or coron at McBurney's point.
I can't tell specifically he's saying. Which one sounds correct? Thanks as always for the help. You guys are great!

There is a well-healed scar in the right upper quadrant scar. Sounds like he says scarl, but I don't think that makes sense. Thank you.

They can see portions of the chest because they start the exam in the lower chest. If the patient had breast cancer, the doctor might mention the axillae.

CTA of the abdomen help, please
Subject: CTA of the abdomen help, please
Patient has a stenotic superior mesenteric artery. Doctor is giving the findings of the CTA and says, with no pauses: "She has findings suggestive of progression of a high-grade approximately 80-90% stenosis of the proximal 1 cm of the SMA cascade collaterals." I cannot find "SMA cascade collaterals". Should there be anything between SMA and cascade collaterals like a comma or something. (Doc always uses fragments, not complete sentences, so it's not easy to separate things) Anyone heard of this? Thanks very much!
She had a s/l doy abdomen
Subject: She had a s/l doy abdomen
This is a death summary.
Whole sentence: She had s/l doy abdomen, mild pneumonia, and CAT scan nonspecific from free-air, obvious abdominal catastrophe, but she was treated with Zosyn antibiotics in surgical consultation, as well as respiratory consultations for ventilatory management. This sentence does not make sense!?!

I have had doctors, very brilliant ones while practicing their craft, speak horrible grammar, and I have been told by many, many supervisors and HIM personnel, even in college, that if a doctor uses the correct term but just the incorrect grammatical form, as long as you check with your supervisor, it is correct to make that one change, you are not changing the context one bit, nor changing the doctor's medical knowledge, just making it read much better, seem much more intelligent, for the doctor's wellbeing, as other doctors, personnel, lawyers, etc, get to read the report, and every doctor wants to be well-represented. I have a dear, very old Swedish pediatric gastroenterologist/professor who often will say "poops" when fishing for the words stools or defecates....my boss is more than happy to have me replace that appropriately, as is the doctor himself, ESL is tough!

I transcribe every so often for a visiting doctor and when he does the abdominal exam he always says, "abdomen is soft, non-tender, no masses(?) but he's putting a "megaly" at the end of it.
I've googled all possible words and have come up with nothing. I know mastomegaly is enlargement of the breasts but would he say that for an abdomen exam, on a man?
