Need help with ortho term for PIP fracture
Subject: Need help with ortho term for PIP fracture
My first post and I goofed it! I just posted this on the Main Board when I saw the Word Board that might be more appropriate. Thanks in advance!
I'm working on an ortho eval for a patient with a PIP fracture. Doctor has dictated an unfamiliar term (there's always that ONE WORD) for me. He dictates, "X-ray examination today shows impaction at the base of the middle phalanx with approximately 70% joint surface involvement." Here's the word I don't know (spelled phonetically--Sorry): "A syphiant(??) portion of the joint surface is translated dorsally."
If someone could point me in the right direction for finding this word, I would really appreciate it!
Ortho/Sports term

My doc is dictating about a teenage baseball player. He had an AC joint separation and wants to start the season. The doc says the patient can "continue to s/l de gauge, continue to do tossing and as soon as he has no pain, throwing and light tossing of the ball" Sounds like de gauge or dig H (my doc has a spanish accent, not too heavy, though) Any ideas? Thanks.
