that is used to see the contrasts of the mouth and throat more clearly. Especially as this procedure started with a microlaryngoscope, which is used either in patients with narrow airways or to get a more clear picture, I would be more apt to say the doc said band endoscope.

I cannot confirm this "type" of trocar. It does not s/l "Veirs"-type trocar to me.
An incision was made above and to the left of the umbilicus, through which a #5/12 Visiport US Surgical trocar was inserted under direct vision into the peritoneal cavity. This was followed by placing another #5/12 trocar in the left upper quadrant. Another #5/12 trocar was placed in the epigastric region to the right of the midline. Another #5/12 trocar _____**s/l "varices"-type trocar was placed between the supraumbilical and the left upper quadrant trocar site. The abdomen was insufflated, and all the trocar sites were placed under direct vision.

a stapler used in a laparoscopic gastric bypass
Subject: a stapler used in a laparoscopic gastric bypass
I'm doing an op note dictated by an ESL and he's referring to a stapler that he's using to create the anastomosis in a laparoscopic gastric bypass. It sounds something like Acolumn, Ecolint or Acumint stapler. I'm so stumped and would welcome any hints on how to figure out what the heck he's saying!
