Ear surgery - MSmt


Posted: Apr 22, 2012

The doc is doing surgery in the middle ear region.  He says . . .

"The s/l o-moon was retrace with a Wheatland retractor . . "

Can you give me a little more of the dictation - JH

sometimes if you do the entire dictation and go back you can figure it out...checking my ENT book now.

Could it be - Addison

GU Surgery; Villiforms?
Mar 15, 2010

Know villiform is a real word, just have not heard it in this context:  "There was a small false passage at the 6 o'clock position in the distal prostatic urethra; I suspect this is the area that presented difficulty with insertion of a Foley catheter and villiforms and dilators." It almost sounds as if an "F" is the first letter.  Any thoughts/suggestions/help welcomed.   Thanks.  ...

This is probably a ridiculously easy one, but I don't have any QA to tell me anything, so I don't know if I've been doing this right or not (though it feels like it's wrong).

Is she actually saying something ...
