Subject: Reposted because of move (see message)

(Why, oh why can't they move comments along with the OP?  Grrr...)


Anyway, if this is the sentence, "There are three cysts identified within the right kidney, the largest of which is in the upper pole and measures 6.5 cm in diameter," then no comma is used before "which."  The prepositional phrase begins with ", the largest of which."


I was taught years ago that you put a comma before "which" if it is referring to the immediate preceding phrase.


In this sentence, it refers to the former phrase:  "This is a 51-year-old pleasant gentleman who had a shave biopsy of the left shoulder which revealed a possible Clark's nevus."  The "which" refers to the shave biopsy, not the left shoulder.


In this one, it refers to the immediately preceding phrase:  "Will continue the sertraline but will increase the amount to 75 mg daily, which would be 50 mg plus 25 mg."  The "which" refers to the 75 mg daily, not the sertraline.


Is this still correct?  Anyone?

He is definetly putting a K or Q sound on the beginning and I have put cool and strong & have not got any feed back yet.


I love this doc otherwise, the dream dictator..always very clear (except for that) dictates in same order, to the point where I have a standard for his whole reports, very considerate, spells the hard ones, but he uses some very old fashion terminology at times,

Thanks for the replies, but I do know what a Phalen test is.  This would not apply to this because this was the actual diagnosis.  I actually did figure out the answer, it is a distal phalanx felon.

this is another case of a doctor thinking he knows it all and spelling it incorrectly - he never did state the term, he just spelled it, which makes me suspect he does not know HOW to pronounce it! I painfully put what he dictated and will let him worry about it! Thanks again!

Get yourself a good medical dictionary and look up Chlamydia/chlamydia

The word "chlamydia" is the genus and is only capitalized if it is followed by the name of the family.  This per Dorland's Medical Dictionary.  If the word "chlamydia" is not followed by the family name, the word is not capitalized.

I do not mind helping people with their questions, but would appreciate if you could give a little more context when asking.  Perhaps a sentence or two containing the s/l or word in question or some sort of reference to what type report, body area, etc., would be welcome.  It would greatly help me to help you.

The first thing you should learn is HOW to ask a question.  You can't just jump in with one word or half a phrase or a sound-like and cry for help.  You need to give some example of what you are looking for.  People on this board do not mind helping you or they would not be here, but a little more information on your part would help us help you.  Medical transcription is more than just one word or half a phrase or a sound-like and most times it is necessary to give some indication of what is wrong with the patient or a diagnosis in order to get an answer.

Dorland's Medical Dictionary: 


Pexis: 


1.  Fixation of matter by a tissue. 


2.  Surgical fixation, usually by suture. 


Therefore pexed would be past tense, as in was pexed (or fixed).
