colectomy takedown? please help!
Subject: colectomy takedown? please help!
Okay, this patient has a hx of a "sigmoid colectomy with colostomy" and is now scheduled to have a "colectomy takedown." Wouldn't that have to be a colostomy takedown? Is she using the wrong term? Or is a colectomy takedown a valid term? 
TIA!

colectomy of the 2nd MTP joint?
Subject: colectomy of the 2nd MTP joint?
I had a blank on a podiatry exam that my QA filled in like this...
"would recommended a modified Weil osteotomy to decompress the joint along with opening up and cleaning up any osteophytes and possibly a colectomy of the second metatarsophalangeal joint."
I had a blank where the word colectomy is. I've never heard of a colectomy of the MTP joint. I did a search but didn't find anything. I'd like to document it if it exists.

concerning partial glossectomy
Subject: concerning partial glossectomy
The phrase he uses is enteral partial glossectomy. Am I hearing the enteral word correctly? I cannot verify this and it really does not sound right because enteral would be referring more to the intestine. I'm thinking it is another word and I'm just not catching it tonight.
Honestly - the last 10 days have been simply cram-packed with all kinds of things and I am run down and just about brain dead tonight! I'm sure you all can relate but if someone could help with this word, I'd appreciate it!! Thanks to all!
Here's a partial sample
Subject: Here's a partial sample
Procedure: Patient was brought to the operating room where general anesthesia was administered. Examination under anesthesia revealed a uterus of approximately 8 to 10 week size. No adnexal masses were appreciated. Patient was prepped and draped in the usual manner for vaginal surgery. A weighted retractor was placed in the posterior aspect of the vagina. Anterior lip of cervix grasped with tenaculum. The cervix was then progressively dilated with Pratt dilators, and a #8 curved suction curette easily introduced into the uterine cavity. Products of conception were then evacuated. The uterine cavity was then sharply curetted and additional tissues sent to pathology. The tenaculum and retractor were then removed, and procedure was thus completed. Estimated blood loss was minimal. Patient tolerated the procedure well and taken to recovery room in stable condition.

As you can see, I am really reaching for this one. This is a type of shoe that is worn when someone has an ankle fracture. I'm thinking it could be "tarsal shoe" but then it almost sounds like "Harstel shoe" or something else entirely. I need an expert on shoe types and/or orthopedics to help me!
