Glandular tissue is also found in breast tissue and males also do get cancer there, most think about down below when referring to males.

How is male breast cancer staged?
The term "stage" is used to describe the anatomic extent of disease according to standardized rules. The same staging system is used for both male and female breast cancer patients. This standardized language allows clinicians and researchers to accurately describe the extent of disease. The AJCC (American Joint Committee on Cancer) staging system uses three numbers to determine the stage of the disease. T (stands for tumor) describes tumors of increasing size and local tissue destruction. N (stands for nodes) describes whether or not the tumor has metastasized to regional lymph nodes and if so, how extensive those nodal metastases are. M (stands for metastases) describes the presence or absence of systemic metastases. The AJCC staging system for breast cancer allows precise stratification of cases and is too complex to fully describe here (24).In most series, men present with more advanced disease (higher stages) women. It is not known whether this reflects delay in diagnosis, more rapid progression in disease, different breast anatomy resulting in most lesions being subareolar (with easy access to subareolar lymphatic trunks) or other factors.

The orbital septums were opened across both upper eyelids and the orbital fat was dissected from the labatorafunurosis.

Ram-a-mul? 

A proximal portion of this saphenous vein graft was then anasmosed to the proximal ascending aorta in the usual fashion using a 6-0 Prolene suture in a running fashion

sounds like "a nest closest" to the proximal OR

sounds like "an-as-mos-ed"...what is this and what does it mean so I understand the context of the sentence.  thanks.

Using formal surgical technique, complete excision of this lesion was performed while taking care to protect as much normal epithelium and underlying superficial lamina propria as possible

The FORMAL could also sound a little bit like funnel or fur-nel??  I don't think formal is right, but not sure what I am hearing. 

pt has just established care with this Dr.   Dr is listing history of pt so there is really no more information than this. 

....he has a history of S/L glam-in-sol cancer of the right ear.

Dictated as "T1CN0MX" and I am not finding much help with the Book of Style.  Would this be typed as T1 CN0 MX  ?

THanks!

Patient is on an antigenic study (which has now been closed) and is prepared to receive her first injection under compassion use protocol.

Does this sentence make any sense? 

I have a male patient and it certainly sounds like tamoxifen in his discharge meds, but there isn't any mention of breast cancer in his diagnoses.

TIA!

The patient's primary hospice diagnosis is prostate cancer with s/l met.

I'm pretty sure she is meaning metastasis?  If so, should I type it out completely or leave it as she said it?

MEDICATIONS:  Trazodone, Rispiridol, (what sounds like "Vandryl ") and over-the-counter medications including Colace, Tylenol and Centrum Silver. 

I only need help with the medication which sounds like Vandryl.  I have spent too many minutes Googling.

Help please!

The patient has acute myelogenous leukemia arising from myelodysplastic syndrome, currently on day #29 status post 13 cycle treatment with s/l vadata.
