S/l the ** esk-ell-a pins were removed, and the graft was captured.

This is on a cervical spine fusion.  Thank you

on x-ray it appears that one of the s/l "hoffert" screws is protruding out the posteromedial aspect ....(Can't find anything googling or otherwise).

"The fracture was segmental with the fracture distally requiring a blocking screw. We placed in a blocking screw from anterior to posterior to medialize the rod and prevent valgus instability. With the locking screw in place, using Kretek and Cole pollar blocking screws we then proceeded to place a guide pin down the femoral shaft to the end of the femur.

Doc spelled this out but cannot document it and he doesn't always get it right - anybody heard this before - thanks

"A bow was used to create parallel endplate surfaces."  Should it be bow or bone?

Thanks.

There is a prior laminectomy and laminotomy present at L5-S1 with generalized disk bulge and flattening of the thecal sac and facet arthritis as well as ________________ (sounds like Rochester or krischester?) on the right S1 nerve root.

I was thinking impingement or encrochemnt  but it just does not sound like that.

Thanks for any suggestions

Thanks.

Thanks
