Colorectal today...
Subject: Colorectal today...

She has a history of rectal prolapse and had ____water placed and there was some question if the ____water perforated her vagina creating a rectovaginal fistula.


It sounds like he is saying "tertiary" but that does not make sense.  I read somewhere that warm water is sometimes used to reduce a prolapse but I'm not coming up with a word for "warm" even in the thesaurus that sounds like that. 


Thanks for the help!  You all are very dependable!
