and then nothing but Hasson everything else. Hassan catheter is cross referenced as well. Never saw it like that either. I have always found the Surgical Word Book to be very accurate. Oh well....Wish someone knew if there was a difference! There must be - but what is it?

Hasson cannula, nothing under catheter. Vera Pyle confirms Hasson cannula. No Hassan anywhere. Which surgical book are you referring to? Tessier's? I had her original book which had lots of errors in it.

During the course of an aortogram, AAA repair and bifurcation graft, he exchanged 0.025 glide wires with 0.035 s/l "Mire" wires, removed the sheath and inserted the bifurcation graft. Mylar maybe (?) but was not able to verify. After deploying the graft, he passed a s/l "AquaTempo" 5-French catheter. I may have a few more of these gems before the report is finished. He is naming every single brand of all the obscure pieces of equipment he can lay his hands on.

...asking yourself a few questions that can help.
For example: You're looking at the cervix (visualize with me), there isn't much in the way of structure in the cervix, so your choices are limited. You've got a clue in the dictation--orifice. What is the orifice called? "Os." Sounds like you've got a doc that belches his way through the term, but the only logical choice for this particular term would be os.
Isn't transcription fun?!

If that measurement is correct, 0.45 mm, it sounds to me like the diameter of a WIRE not a plate...without more info, I can't think of anything that would fit here. I suppose 0.45 mm could be the amount of DISTRACTION created if they're using a plate and screws, but again without more info, i don't know...sorry!

She is noted to have a 3cm red mass just posterior to the arytenoid cartilage at the esophageal inlet When she swallows this mass disappears into the esophageal inlet and then about 5 seconds later it protrudes back up behind the arytenoid cartilages. It gives the appearance of an air filled esophageal mucosal sac.
The patient brought with her a lateral x-ray of the neck which shows the s/l prevacubital space is very widened in the retrolaryngeal region.
Any suggestions?

Moderate ischemic cardiomyopathy. There is no clinical sign of congestive heart failure (CHF); however, on the pacemaker interrogation, s/l optigal or optimal trend is turning outward. Her weight is also the same as last time. Pacemaker interrogation confirmed the patient indeed had recurrent nonsustained VT and appropriate intrinsic VT not due to pacemaker. The (same s/l) trend was also increasing over the threshold.

Thanks - but this one has me stumped. It sounds pretty clear. Only other thing it could be would be "see MR card" but that does not really make sense either?! Guess I will have to blank it.
