Does this make sense? 

Hooking up the fetal scalp to the monitor?

I know that sudden dissection can't be right but when transcribing a breast biopsy procedure that what it sounds like.  What else could it be?  It doesn't sound like sharp or blunt....what else could sound like sudden?  Any help would be appreciated. 

Thanks

Pre and postoperative diagnosis is Two ??_______ of scalp. It sounds like it starts with a W. The operation is excision of these two things. A small incision is made over each one and they are extracted. s/l maybe wins or wans.

Neuro doc: 

Scalp:  I palpated all around his scalp.  He is bald as an egg.  There are no masses, lumps, s/l BOSSES, cuts, bruises, or any other abnormalities.  There are no maneuvers, which would precipitate the discomfort.

I thought maybe bumps, but I can't get that out of it.   Thanks for any help. 

__ ectomy.  Here is the context:

status post a recent composite resection including a right neck dissection and ___medivalectomy___ and free flap reconstruction with a fibular free flap. 

Maybe my ears are not working right tonight!! Imagine that after being at this for 13 hours today!  Okay - many interuptions (I homeschool too), stopping to fix supper etc.  but needless to say -- I'm tired!!

There is a history of hypertension, (s/l thoratic aortic dissection) ?

Thanks

I have never done an op note and have certainly never done a groin node dissection!  There are no sample reports available.  I have done this doctor before in his clinical setting and he is one of my favorites, but no op notes - the problem is a very poor quality recording - and in an area that I do not have experience!!  HELP!!  Each line is a separate issue.  Some I just need some verifcation that I did it right.

We dissected the lymph node bearing tissue off of the external __s/l dish__ muscle, exposed the femoral nerve artery and vein. 

We used hemoclips and silk ___ for hemostasis and controlled lymphatic vessels.

We dissected along the superficial femoral artery and femoral nerve to __revolve?__ the lymph node bearing tissue from this area.   

We irrigated __and assured?__ hemostasis

We identified the ureter which was reflected medially.

assured hemostasis placing __ FloSeal __ along the obturator foramen area and there was no sign of bleeding

We closed the fascia with a running loop #1 _PDS__ suture. 

closing the femoral canal defect with an interrupted, figure of 8, Ethibond suture.

Thanks for any help or reassurance!!!

is anyone familiar with a procedure for aortic dissection that sounds like bentile or ventile procedure? 

"underoging an emergent bentile procedure for an acute aortic dissection"

Anyone have access to AAMT BOS regarding Baker's cyst versus Baker cyst?

Thanks!

A Baker's cyst, otherwise known as a popliteal cyst, is a benign swelling found behind the knee joint. It is named after the surgeon who first described it, Dr. William Morrant Baker (1839-1896).
