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!

MRI is reviewed confirming the presence of a full-thickness supraspinatus tendon tear with early glenohumeral arthritis. The patient apparently had a long head biceps tendon operation as well, perhaps s/l an or in acoa.

The patient has another orthopaedic surgeon in New York that has done a shoulder procedure (he says this in the HPI) and I can't tell if he's saying "an" or "in" acoa.

The patient had removal of this aberrant eyelash from the lower lid in the following manner:


 


The eyelash was still within the eyelid itself.  I used magnifying glasses, as well as splinter forceps and was able to localized the eyelash and remove it from the lower lid.  The size of the eyelash was about 0.5 cm in size.  In fact, it appeared to be in an aberrant location of the other eyelashes itself.  I felt that this eyelash could actually have been relocated somehow to AN ERROR POOR?  The patient tolerated the procedure well, no complications.  The patient was given Ciloxan to be
