 He says this:
 We incised the urachus and umbilical ligaments and dropped the bladder down posteriorly.  We incised the endopelvic fascia and preprostatic ligaments and placed 2 ligatures of 0 Vicryl around the  s/l doors venous complex.
 
 Venous complex is clear, but is that dorsal?  First lapscc of these I have done.  Stedman's GI/GU is not very good either.

 Only one mastectomy is being performed each on the right and left side.  The same thing for bilateral tubal ligation, you would not put bilateral tubal ligations.  If a person had four breasts and two were being removed from each side, then it would be bilateral mastectomies!

 It sounds like either "her cardiomastectomy" or "recardid mastectomy"...neither one makes sense though! lol.

 In medicine, mastectomy is the medical term for the surgical removal of one or both breasts, partially or completely.
 
 Bilateral means both and mastectomy is one or two. Do not need mastectomies even though the doc is saying it.

 she was looking for the plural form of decubitus, saying she got stumped by it.  I responded very simply to that.  I did not feel I needed to correct her use of "pleural" as was not her question and just quickly wanted to help her, and checked my medical references to do so.  I pointed out that there are no plural form for decubitus.  This is all correct.  What is your problem.  I was trying to help an MT with correct and verfified medical transcription help, now I know why I stay away from any message boards, always someone who wants a fight.  Whatever.
