Monosof?
It must be lesion day at the clinic. Numerous patients with superficial lesions and he is describing wound closure.

Hi Everyone..
Having a problem referencing this...
He dictates....
"The interior fascia layers were closed with interrupted 1-0 pop-off Vicryl sutures."
BUT I can't seem to find a reference for this. Everything else I've researched about "pop-off" sutures has it formatted with the name first: Vicryl pop-off sutures, etc.
Is it set in stone, or just transcribe verbatim?
thanks in advance..for any help or suggestions.

Whitson ligatures as well as a Penfield freer elevators and angled curettes were used to identify a plane in the midline as well as laterally for placement of the paddle lead.

Thanks! ...
