Plan is to have a neurosurgical consultation and consider 'tanoplasty' or 'tyanoplasty'. I know that doesn't make sense. What /plasty could this be?

s/l "Leg to tendons" distribution
Subject: s/l "Leg to tendons" distribution
This is from a neurlogical consultation:
Physical Examination: She has clear loss of pinprick in ?? s/l leg to tendons ?? distribution up to about the knee bilaterally, hands up to mid wrist, and chest in the distal thoracic distribution. This is consistent with a small fiber ?? s/l leg to tendons ?? process. Her strength is relatively preserved considering her age. Deep tendon reflexes are not elicitable distally.
Impression: ?? s/l leg to tendons ?? sensory greater than motor neuropathy involving both small as well as large fiber axones.

if your docs are a lot like some of mine, they try to rush through their dictation more and more by using abbreviations that really do not exist, using cut-off words....you are right, he is saying that there is tendinopathy found in both the supraspinatus and infraspinus, I do lots of ortho ops and procedures. Hope I help!

tendonitis vs. tendinitis
I find both of these words in the dictationary with the SAME meaning, but I keep getting marked down from QA on the tendonitis......can anyone tell me if there is a reason for this? Is it just preference or is there a difference in meaning because I CANNOT FIND IT!!!!

Dictated: Tibialis anterior on the left is 4+/5. Extensor hallucis is 5/5. If she did not dictate "left" - then it would be "are" 4+5, correct?
extensor hallucis......sm
Subject: extensor hallucis......sm
Per my experience, and this is only mine, when a doc starts dictating, "tibialis anterior on the left is 4+/5, extensor hallucis is 5/5", that doc is dictating about one side. If he/she changes sides, i.e., left to right, he/she may possibly say....."tibialis tendon on the left is 4+/5 and 5/5" (meaning on the right). But, they do not usually change sides AND tendons like that. Per your account, it sounds like the doc is speaking about the same side as she is not comparing; she's just talking about two different tendons.
If she is referring to both great toes, she will usually pronounce in the proper manner, which you would spell halluces.
And, no, "are" would be completely wrong in this case as she is dictating that ONE tendon is 4+/5 and ANOTHER tendon is 5/5.
You do understand the anatomy, right?

No doc says radian, ulnar and median nerve distribution. I was just wondering if there was a radian nerve, since QA keeps marking it as radial and then radian and then radial, (I keep getting graded on that word and just wanted to know if I was right or wrong). It is radial. radian is a math measurement of some sort.
