Posted: Apr 24, 2010

 approximately 1-inch, at the 4th and 5th intercostal space, dissected down through the superficial musculare layers and down into the  s/l *pluera or flora*  Once in the "pluera" we placed a laparoscopic port and 30 degree 5 mm camera.

Pleura makes sense. Flora is an organism. - NM

Small-bowel Versus Small Bowel
Jun 08, 2015

I've always just used "small bowel," but then noticed most put "small-bowel," I assume to differentiate it as being part of the intestine as opposed to a small, or little bowel.  Okay, that makes sense, so I stated hyphenating small-bowel.  However, I just got marked off by QA for putting in a hyphen!  No matter what you do or don't do, you're screwed!  I do believe they just look for ways to antagonize so you'll never feel appreciated.  ...
