Excision, lesion right lower leg - cc

Posted: Mar 31, 2012

Can anyone help with my missing word..sounds like drrav... Lesion was excised in full thickness manner taking a cuff of normal-appearing skin with it. The ___ skin under localization was done prior to full thickness excision.

Suggestion - sm

Hard to tell withut hearing what went before and after. "The drrav skin under localization was done" does not make sense. Not just the drrav part, but the rest of it.

It is something that would be done prior to the excision itself. See if you are hearing something about local anesthetic and possibly even lines being marked.

don't understand how it sounds - sm

Does this sound right?

Lesion was excised in full thickness manner taking a cuff of normal-appearing skin with it. The skin localization was done prior to full thickness excision.

I'm not sure if the second sentence is:
The ___ skin under localization was done prior to full thickness excision.

No, that does not make sense. - sm

"The skin localization" makes no sense. What would that be? Local anesthetic, maybe, but there s no "localization" associated with excising a skin lesion. I can't imagine what that might be.

Perhaps if you gave what went before all that it would help.

The way this is phrased is even strange. Is this an ESL? If so, what language?

Here's what I've got so far:

Localization achieved 1% Lidocaine 1:100,000 Epinephrine solution. Lesion was excised in full thickness manner taking a cuff or normal-appearing skin with it. The ___ skin under localization was done prior to full thickness excision.

Anyone help out here??

I got it!!

Standard localization was done....

OH boy!!

What is "standard localization"???? - sm

Are you a student?

Localization does not make sense. That surgeon is not localizing anything. He is administering local anesthetic, and that is not called "localization."

I believe you are hearing "local anesthesia."

No I am not a student...

I have replayed this a thousand times, fast, slow, etc. and twice in the dictation it sounds like localization... There is definitely the "shun" sound at the end..I agree with you that local anesthesia is right...but I'm not the doctor dictating!

could drrav be prep and drape of .. nm - Lynn

I am doing a report for a doctor and surgery that I don't normally do. The surgery is for excision of a perineal lesion and fistulous tract. She says she uses lacrimal dilators. It s/l lacrimal anyway but I can't seem to confirm that this is correct. Using lacrimal dilators the wound tract was explored and found to approximately 4 cm in its greatest length but non-communicating with perianal glands or rectum. There was a blind ended sac. With the l ...

Have they changed this now? ...

Hi all, There is a discrepancy with the proper use of this - can anyone help? Some at my work are saying it should be bilateral lower extremities, whereas others think it is bilateral lower extremity since the "bilateral" implies that it's plural and hence no need to say "lower extremities." I've seen it both ways, but the more that I think about it the more I'm getting myself confused. Any input would be greatly appreciated! ...
