FABER stands for Flexion, ABduction, and External Rotation of the hip. FABERE stands for Flexion, ABduction, External Rotation, and Extension. It could be either. Luckily, my dictators usually spell it for me.

It is found both ways in several different reference books. In the new Stedman's Abbreviation book it's fabere. The old Stedman's Abbreviation book listed it both ways, FABERE and fabere. It is an acronym, however, and the BOS 2nd edition page 7 says, "Capitalize all letters of most acronyms." It then also goes on to say, "When acronyms become words in their own right, they sometimes evolve into lowercase form." Such as the lower-case acronym laser (light amplification by stimulation emission of radiation). Is it possible that fabere has evolved into a word of its own? I don't think so, because if it was a word of its own it wouldn't be in the abbreviation book! So, I would follow the BOS recommendation and capitalize the letters of an acronym. FABERE

Surgical question.
Subject: Surgical question.
Okay here are the procedures...
1. Repair of FDP tendon.
2. Repair of one fascicle laceration of the ulnar digital nerve.
3. Repair of pulley tendon.
4. Radial digital neurolysis (indicated given the ulnar digital nerve partial laceration.)
5. Repair of A4 pulley.
I am then hearing in the narrative summary:
The tendon was repaired with a modified Kessler suture. This was somewhat compromised by the skiving cut angled distally with minimal tendon at the insertion for the repair. However, adequate tissue was apparently purchased.
Purchased is the word I am questioning??
surgical question
Subject: surgical question
Yep, it's purchased. Just means a good hold in the tissues.
