arthroscopy, menisectomy surgery - Kim


Posted: Oct 04, 2011

Does this sentence sound right?

 

The ArthroCare wand was then used to smooth the chondral surface, which probed again, and it was noted to be stable.

 

The doctor said "period" before "which." I knew that couldn't be right, so I put a comma instead.

Could it be ...the chondral surface. When probed again, it was noted to be stable.

maybe - Kim

"when" sounds better to me, but the doctor said "and" before "it." I'll listen again and see what I can hear.
