Subject: oncology help, please

I'm doing an oncology report by an ESL on a patient with an abnormal platelet and white count.  She says they have sent investigations for molecular diagnostics including BCR-ABL translocation.  Then she seems to back track and correct herself and say BCR-ABL and translocation and jactermitation to evaluate for myeloproliferative disorders.  Any ideas?


Meanwhile, I'll go back to trying to research this on Google.

Subject: oncology help, please

No, I don't think it's hypermutation, but I believe I've got it. I believe she is saying BCR/ABL translocation and JAK2 mutation.

Pt. with cervical cancer, mets to brain.

"The patient was on Decadron and Celebrex to decrease the S/L *interferal* pressure and seizure prophylaxis respectively."

Have tried everything I know of. I do not hear intracranial in this. It is decidedly interferal, intrafural, interfural, etc. I've tried antero, entero, inter, intra, you name it.

HORRIBLE ESL dictator, you know the kind... the one everyone else skips in the queue.

Thanks all.
