Subject: Need help with ortho - Doc has a slight British accent.

The patient returns today three years after her anteroposterior reconstruction for flat back deformity. No pain. She is here, however, because she has some prominence in her back that has gotten progressively more pronounced.

On examination, there is s/l right-sided hooks. I believe this needs to be removed. I feel she is solid because she has no pain.

Thanks for any help!!
