    fissure or fistula
    Subject: fissure or fistula

    I'm a little confused, the doctor dictates "He is at a point where he is disabled by the anal fissure pain, and I have recommended surgery in terms of an anal fissurectomy and lateral internal sphincterotomy.


    There is no such thing as an anal fissurectomy but I swear that is what he is saying, and I would think it would be a fistulectomy but through the whole dictation it sounds like he is saying fissure.  I am a little confused with this.  Any ideas or help would be greatly appreciated.  Thanks. 


    "trans-sphincterotomy" for fissure?

    The patient is scheduled for a lateral "trans" sphincterotomy for chronic fissure.


     


    I cannot find any reference to "trans-" or "trans" infront of sphincterotomy.  Help!!! TIA

    correct = nicked (verb: to cut nick into)

    onelook.com is a good dictionary source on-line.
    Were is correct.
    Subject: Were is correct.

    As the word remainder represents a portion, the verb to use is determined by the noun in the "of phrase" that follows. In your case, "forms" is plural so use were.

    This rule also applies for other "portion" words such as none, all, some, part, etc. Hope this helps.

    PS: See 'The Blue Book of Grammar and Punctuation' by Jane Straus.
