extensor hallucis is ...
Subject: extensor hallucis is ...

 Dictated:  Tibialis anterior on the left is 4+/5. Extensor hallucis is 5/5. If she did not dictate "left" - then it would be "are" 4+5, correct?


extensor hallucis......sm
Subject: extensor hallucis......sm

Per my experience, and this is only mine, when a doc starts dictating, "tibialis anterior on the left is 4+/5, extensor hallucis is 5/5", that doc is dictating about one side. If he/she changes sides, i.e., left to right, he/she may possibly say....."tibialis tendon on the left is 4+/5 and 5/5" (meaning on the right). But, they do not usually change sides AND tendons like that. Per your account, it sounds like the doc is speaking about the same side as she is not comparing; she's just talking about two different tendons.

If she is referring to both great toes, she will usually pronounce in the proper manner, which you would spell halluces.

And, no, "are" would be completely wrong in this case as she is dictating that ONE tendon is 4+/5 and ANOTHER tendon is 5/5.

You do understand the anatomy, right?
Extensor ???? proprius?
Subject: Extensor ???? proprius?

The doc is dictating excision of a ganglion in the dorsum of the left wrist.  "Thickened synovium was excised from the interval between the common extensors and s/l "extensor ingeus proprius."  Any help?  I cannot find that in any lists of extensors anywhere.   Thanks in advance!

Resistance to wrist extension and pronation seems to accentuate pain and discomfort focally over the common extensor s/l meth or math??. No focal deficits appreciated with neurovascular exam.
