If you don't have Stedman's Medical & Surgical Equipment Words book you should get it. This book is amazing. Pretty much any piece of medical/surgical equipment is in there. It is worth its weight in gold. If your company doesn't offer discounted books, you can purchase it a Amazon.com either new or used, and they have great used book. I bought my entire collection of Stedman's words book used. All of them are in at least good condition.

Tessier Surgical Word Book, Third Edition which is the newest edition.  Methinks your QA person is wrong (and needs to be brought down a peg or two ).  I think some of this QA people get a wee big headed and think they are always right.  Doesn't sound like he's/she's bothering to reference it because if she did, she wouldn't be able to find it.


Go get 'em!

pelvi- and pelvo- are both combining forms for pelvis. Did not find either word in my GI/GU Words, but they do have pelvicaliceal, so my guess would be either one is correct. Google comes up with both.

Can someone please look up Dobbhoff tube for me and tell me what page it is on and what edition they have of the Stedman's?  That would be Dobbhoff with TWO b's and TWO f's for my purposes, here. I need that particular spelling. 


I would be SO grateful!


(Background - I was on here a while ago asking about this word. Someone was nice enough to answer me with the correct spelling as found in the Stedman's GI/GU.  I used that spelling -- the one above.  QA came after me.  I defended myself by citing Stedman's GI/GU.  QA has asked me for the edition and the page number.  Well, I don't have the durn reference MYSELF, one of you nice people helped me.)  THANKS!
