The patient has tenderness throughout the Achilles tendon from the musculotendinous junction to its insertion site.  He does not have any pain over the ____ (SOUNDS LIKE 'OWLSCOWLISIS' OR 'ASCOWLISIS').  There is not any restriction in dorsiflexion, plantar flexion, inversion, or eversion.

I have looked everywhere online - articles and pictures with diagrams - the only thing I've found that comes close is hallucis ... but what is he saying before it?  It doesn't sound like abductor, flexor, or extensor.

Any suggestions???

Thanks!  Jenni

1.             Bilateral sagittal split osteotomy with advancement and rigid fixation utilizing ____________ 2 mm placement screws. 

Hello..filling in for ortho surgeon.  Sounds like Sin these screws...any help?

With a #15 blade a 3.5 cm incision was made over the external _________ridge.  A subperiosteal dissection was carried out laterally, adjacent to the ramus and anteriorly along the ramus of the mandible. 

Sounds like baked ridge in the mouth? 

She's driving me nuts again!  Talking about risks of breast augmentation and specifically of retropectoral placement with one of the risks being......"ana faa shun" ...deformity.  Anyone know?? thanks.

sestamibi scan on all his parathyroid patients...........

and google to back it up:

that is implanted.

Kiel bone® grafts. This material is calf or ox bone which has been denaturated.

in the background dictating away calling the instrument he was using during his procedure "the green doo-hickey with the spring" and just kept dictating away as if nothing.  The poor transcriptionist who got that report went with my blessing.  You wonder where they got their medical license at...

may be just too new to have much info on.  I did see an article on Google with the Oakland Bone and Joint Specialists, where he and a colleague, Dr. Jeffrey Mann, were pioneering a new total ankle replacement.  This is copyrighted for 2007-2008, so maybe he has developed dressings, bandages and such. 

I'm gonna save this one, and if I do find it verified in any medical books, etc., will send you a message about it.  Thanks for sharing! 

He's definitely saying Hartmann's ________ procedure, and the blank sounds like "lung."

Thanks so much! 

I do have CTS but ortho MDs say not to operate for another 10 years (til I'm way up there in age).  I find I have thumb pain (for decades) from hitting the space bar too hard with my thumb.  I had cortisone shots into the thumb for years (one shot lasted 10 years in one thumb and the other shots didn't work at all in the other thumb).

Hope you feel better! 

now they don't use is as much as they used to. I had this phrase saved in some of my old links;

The use of local agents: bone wax, gelatin, collagen, oxidized cellulose.- The use of fibrin sealants at spinal surgery.- The use of local agents: Surgicel and Surgifoam.-

The patient had rectus reflap which was in the midportion of the left tibia.

Is this correct and if so can you explain it to me?

ct bow angiogram

pulmonary account

doctor states disease of the tibia giving it a bumpy appearance...s/l Companachi's disease

A lateral portal was created through and through the rotator cuff defect and a _____ bone cutter was used to gently remove the soft tissue...

The docter says "five, five bone cutter". 

How would I transcribe this 

My left hand is hurting in that big, round, fatty area below my thumb.  I've had carpal tunnel symptoms before, and they've gone away when I make ergonomic changes, but lately it's not in the wrist so much but in that fatty part under the thumb.  I can't tell if it's the bone itself that hurts or the tissue that hurts, or both.  It's sore in the scaphoid and lunate bones, but much less so than the trapezium area.  Is this a problem related to carpal tunnel?  If not, then I remember about 6 months ago getting a sliver or something like that stuck in that area and I'm wondering if it could be from that.  There's no redness or an entry wound at all.

I'm getting my bone references from:  http://www.gwc.maricopa.edu/class/bio201/hand/awrist.htm

It's not bad enough to run to the doctor, but it sure is annoying as an MT!  I really appreciate your opinions or experiences.
