Name of a spinal cage, neurosurgery
Subject: Name of a spinal cage, neurosurgery

This sounds new - sounds like a "Bengal" cage.  It's not in my Stedman's Surgical Words, Third Edition, not in my Stedman's on line.  I tried Googling it, which usually works, could not find anything.  Does anyone know the proper spelling for this? - Thanks!

    This is dictated in an op note on a right knee arthroscopy and partial meniscectomy.  The doc says a s/l Poodoo drill guide was inserted and the tibial tunnel placed in an anatomic position.  I've tried various spellings on Google, including Peaudeau, Pudeau, Pudu, etc., and I'm not having any luck finding this.  Any ideas, anyone?

    Subject: Zimmer TM-100 cage used in back surgery

    I'm doing a report for placement of a Zimmer TM-100 ______foam cage at the C4-5 level.  Neuro reports of this sort take me so long because I have such a hard time finding and documenting the instrumentation that they use!  I've checked my reference books and googled, to no avail.  I can't seem to figure out the first part of the 'foam' word for this cage.  It sounds kinda' like zylofoam, tanofoam or tilofoam.  Arghhhh!
