Stumped here. :(
Surgeon says:
Two screws fractured at the level of the bone. They were ____________ and removed in the usual fashion.
The blank sounds like "truffened", "troughened", "truffined"? Some sort of removal. I have absolutely no idea.
Thanks in advance. :) ...
I'm working on an operative report w/ a patient that has a s/l eventual hernia. I have no clue what he's saying, and he says it over and over...it always sounds the same. Does anyone have any ideas? ...
Surgery for umbilical hernia. Surgeon says incarcerans contains omentum. Obviously incarcerans means contents in a hernial defect, but incarcerans is found nowhere, Google doesn't even get one hit, not in any of my reference books, old or new. Anyone out there able to document this word as actually existing? Thanks! ...
The preperitoneum was taken down. The hernia was indeed medial to the epigastric vessels. The preperitoneal fat was further reduced. The hernia sac was completely reduced out of that area. A space was then created in the preperitoneum. A 4 x 6 inch Composix mesh was then introduced, secured to the ileopubic tract laterally and then also medially. The peritoneum was then closed over this with additional absorbable tacks. He tolerated this quite well.
I'm not finding "preperitoneum" anywhere ...
With the preperitoneal contents replaced into the preperitoneal space, the preperitoneal space was then developed. Then using the ___ s/l "calves ear" mesh, Prolene, this was placed into this defect with the balloon blown up and the mesh then affixed to the fascial edges circumferentially with 0 Vicryl suture. ...

doc is talking about infant inguinal hernia repair and says
He did have bilateral incisions on his abdomen with the s/l adhedoderms still in situ. - would think it is a brand name stitch or something, any help would be appreciated. ...

doc keeps saying what sounds like "continental" lumbar hernia repair and for the life of me I can't find anything like that. It doesn't really sound like contralateral though there are bilateral lumbar hernias and they're doing a staged procedure.
Anyone got any ideas??
TIA!! ...
I can't figure out what this doctor is saying! Please help.
"This was palpated in the (superior osectivar?!) incision, and the incision actually needed to be extended several mm to facilitate dissection. ...
"Hernia lies anteromedial to the _________ of the cord contents." S/L precursor
Doc says the same thing a few times during the report "______ of the cord contents."
Sounds like "precusors of the cord contents."
Any help appreciated. Thanks! ...
Bard 3DMax left medium mesh was inserted uncurled and tacked on the superior edge using (___) from the anterior superior iliac spine to the pubis with good coverage.
s/l it ends in "fix" or chlorofix or thorofix or ...thicks instead of fix.
This could be a long shot in asking but I thought perhaps there might be a certain type of something that is used to tack it. It doesn't s/l suture.
Thanks. ...
