Need help. s/l paronychial infection SM
Subject: Need help. s/l paronychial infection SM

Says that the patient has a paronychial infection of his finger and also uses the term paronychial flap. 


My mind is blank, kids are home today, and I have spent way too much time trying to figure this out.


Would paronychial be correct or would parenchymal be correct?  Or are they both wrong?? Thanks so much!!!!

stumped on word s/l "requels or requils"
Subject: stumped on word s/l "requels or requils"

My doctor is using words to "stump" me today (he loves to do that), so I need your help.   The word sounds like "requels."


Sentence used:  I did also mention that a tracheotomy would obviously be a curative of his OSA, but he understandably "requels" at this idea.  HELP PLEASE!  Thanks

just found the word pyuria
Subject: just found the word pyuria

Pyuria seems to mean what he is using leukouria to mean, but he's a really picky doctor and I hate to change his word on him, so it makes me feel better to know that leukouria has been used and known in the medical community, even if it's outdated.  I think I'll just leave it as is then.  Thanks for your help!

I found both Meyerson and Myerson signs in my Surgical Word Book
Subject: I found both Meyerson and Myerson signs in my Surgical Word Book

According to Google, they seem to both have the same definition.

Myerson's sign is a medical condition where a patient is unable to resist blinking when tapped on the glabella, the area above the nose and between the eyebrows. It is often an early symptom of Parkinson's disease.

Snout Reflex: percuss the upper lip near the midline - pursing or puckering of lips; glabellar reflex (=Meyerson's sign) - percuss on forehead in the middle above eyes: produces continued blinking with each tap. Also seen in Parkinson's. Grasp Reflex - stroke the mid-palm upward to fingers; you may warn the patient not to hold on.

Since, the doc is spelling Meyerson, I would give him that one.

Crazy huh?

Subject: When you get stumped like this try...

...asking yourself a few questions that can help.

For example: You're looking at the cervix (visualize with me), there isn't much in the way of structure in the cervix, so your choices are limited. You've got a clue in the dictation--orifice. What is the orifice called? "Os." Sounds like you've got a doc that belches his way through the term, but the only logical choice for this particular term would be os.

Isn't transcription fun?!

If that measurement is correct, 0.45 mm, it sounds to me like the diameter of a WIRE not a plate...without more info, I can't think of anything that would fit here. I suppose 0.45 mm could be the amount of DISTRACTION created if they're using a plate and screws, but again without more info, i don't know...sorry!

stumped on this one
Subject: stumped on this one

She is noted to have a 3cm red mass just posterior to the arytenoid cartilage at the esophageal inlet  When she swallows this mass disappears into the esophageal inlet and then about 5 seconds later it protrudes back up behind the arytenoid cartilages.  It gives the appearance of an air filled esophageal mucosal sac.  


 


The patient brought with her a lateral x-ray of the neck which shows the s/l prevacubital space is very widened in the retrolaryngeal region. 


 


Any suggestions?
