ENT surgeon says "Binner bipolar electrocautery" he even spells it but I can't seem to find a direct reference to it anywhere. Anyone heard of it?
Binner bipolar cautery
Subject: Binner bipolar cautery

My neighbor had the surgery for BPD, but I don't know the details.  She knew I was very interested in the details.  Since then she's become more secluded.  I don't know the exact reason, but it's unfortunate.  Hopefully someone else can weigh in on this as well. 


In the meantime, I'll keep looking.

"Then the conjunctiva was tacked over the wound by light cautery at the 2 o'clock and 10 o'clock meridians."

Where I have "light cautery" it sounded like he stumbled and it came out "glicautery."

So does light cautery sound right?

Subject: it is roll ball cautery or roller ball or

rollerball.  Googled roll ball and roller-ball comes up.  My Surgical Word Book has rollerball endometrial ablation but the doc is clearly saying ROLL BALL.  She is saying is very slowly and precise.  This drives me nuts.
