Dictator gives location of nail, saying "apparently s/l SKY-VING just anterior to the tuft of the distal phalanx."  Skyving?  I can find it only in the urban dictionary.

Subject: fracture nail

Okay, I've googled and looked around and there seems to be differing opinions about this.


Is it Gamma nail or gamma nail?  Seen in both ways.  I've been using Gamma nail because I'm thinking that it is a product that Stryker makes and I've seen in capitalized on their website, but other places...not. 


Is there a consensus?

This patient recently got a diagnosis of Soft Tissue Rheumatism:  He says:


She has a history of pelvic and scapular s/l tills, polyarthralgias, tight hamstrings and stated she has lost weight. 


And in the other spot it sounds like he is saying pelvic and scapular tilts.  Any ideas?  Thanks!

Sometimes they say "levocurvature" instead of "levoscoliosis" because the curvature may be caused by the way the patient is positioned. The doc may be reluctant to diagnose a scoliosis on the basis of just one study.
