verbatim acct help

General surgeon talking about frozen section pathologic exam of squamous cell carcinoma lesion. First frozen section came back with positive margins so he went back to excise a second specimen which he submitted S/L "on fos" with the new margin up. This is a verbatim account and this dictator is on 100% QA (all reports) since he is so SPECIAL. I referenced the other reports in his MD data base and found "en Fos" which would have been put there by QA before the report was signed off to the hospital. I can't find this anywhere and was wondering if anybody has a clue?

Having a little discussion in the office about correct way to use the "followup". Can someone please clarify... is it one word, should it be hyphenated? If "the patient is seen today in followup" or "the patient will return for followup"
Should those two be different?
