Gallbladder terms I cannot make out
Subject: Gallbladder terms I cannot make out
Okay, this is always my last recourse. Doing a gallbladder, common bile duct operating report. The doctor keeps saying what sounds like "ansystematous, encystatous" describing the gallbladder; I've search everyone under a lot of things and can find nothing. Also, in the same report he describes coming out of the bile duct he describes what sounds like "perineal bile"; there is no such and nothing that sounds similar. Any suggestions here?
