I don't hear an L sound - widely would have been my best guess, but it really doesn't sound like it. His inflection makes it sound like a two-part adjective, like topsy-turvy. He says "Vulva: Diffuse whitey-warty lesion on the left side...." I can't verify anything like that. I don't usually have to blank or flag this guy's reports - this might be the first!

Subject: Could it be so simple as men's glandular stage 2 cancer.
Glandular tissue is also found in breast tissue and males also do get cancer there, most think about down below when referring to males.
How is male breast cancer staged?
The term "stage" is used to describe the anatomic extent of disease according to standardized rules. The same staging system is used for both male and female breast cancer patients. This standardized language allows clinicians and researchers to accurately describe the extent of disease. The AJCC (American Joint Committee on Cancer) staging system uses three numbers to determine the stage of the disease. T (stands for tumor) describes tumors of increasing size and local tissue destruction. N (stands for nodes) describes whether or not the tumor has metastasized to regional lymph nodes and if so, how extensive those nodal metastases are. M (stands for metastases) describes the presence or absence of systemic metastases. The AJCC staging system for breast cancer allows precise stratification of cases and is too complex to fully describe here (24).In most series, men present with more advanced disease (higher stages) women. It is not known whether this reflects delay in diagnosis, more rapid progression in disease, different breast anatomy resulting in most lesions being subareolar (with easy access to subareolar lymphatic trunks) or other factors.

I have never seen/used a hyphen either. I guess it also depends upon what the doctor wants. I have one doctor where I use a hyphen in follow-up no matter what, and I know that is not "correct" just they way he wants it.

Subject: status post ilia? please sm
Under HPI, patient has a very long and complicated history. Towards the end of the list, doctor says "dysphagia status post PEG, anemia status post ilia, status post UTI etc."
Truth is, he says anemia status post ilia and then repeats himself w/o anemia, he just says status post ilia, status post UTI.
Any ideas what this ilia is? :) Thanks.

Status post MVR CABG.
Subject: Status post MVR CABG.
Should there be a comma MVR,CABG. I came across MVR/CABG and am now doubting myself. Thanks for your help.
status post mvr cabg
Subject: status post mvr cabg
hi,
Look what i have come across is that mvr is mitral valve replacement and cabg is coronary artery bypass graft so status post mvr, cabg or mvr and cabg is the proper way i feel. usually putting mvr/cabg means it can be either of the two but here both are different procedures so I guess to be on the safer side i think it should be cabg, mvr or cabg and mvr.
hope that helps.
