I disagree re: deep-seated versus deep-seeded
Subject: I disagree re: deep-seated versus deep-seeded
I believe deep-seeded may be correct. It is a term frequently used in oncology and dermatology. "Deep-seeded" means that something has been "seeded" from another site (primary), as in metastasis. Please do a Google search and form your own opinion on this.
But - is it a deep-SEEDED or deep-SEATED infection?

MEDICATIONS: He takes Crestor, Diovan, 'lowest' aspirin, Toprol, Flomax, and Trileptal.
Make sense or is there any such other term that would fit there? I am at a loss with this one and of course there is no hesitation between meds, so I am thinking it belongs together. = )

Keratosis is described as "deep-seated", so I would think that would be proper for keratoma as well.

Subject: Location of thymectomy scar. sm
Under physical exam, my doc says "There is a healed right upper parasternal surcigal scar." The patient had a thymectomy. I'm supposed to put this under one of the usual headings for a PE, should it be Neck or Thorax? (The dcotor usually dictates the heading, but did not this time.) Thanks for any help!

Yep - crypts - deep pits in tonsils
Subject: Yep - crypts - deep pits in tonsils
Tonsillar crypts are deep recesses found on the surface of the tonsils. Chronic tonsillitis often results from the accumulation of partially digested food debris in the depths of these crypts. When the crypts are particularly deep, the debris may actually form concretions known as tonsilloliths. Chronic tonsil inflammation associated with such debris in the crypts in most cases can be successfully managed by relatively simple oral hygiene measures designed to mechanically cleanse or irrigate the tonsils. Scheduled and regular gargling with antiseptic rinses such as Cepacol or saline-soda solutions (1/4 tsp salt, 1/4 tsp baking soda in 6-8 oz water) are helpful in many. For more difficult cases, the use of a Water-Pik device with pulsating jets of solution directed at the tonsil crypts is advised. Antibiotics may be occasionally recommended for acute exacerbations associated with bacterial colonization of the crypts, however, antibiotics are often not particularly helpful. Ultimately, if these measures fail, and if the individual is sufficiently syptomatic, tonsil removal may be recommended.
