Subject: Apparently part of patient's history, but not clear...

MRI is reviewed confirming the presence of a full-thickness supraspinatus tendon tear with early glenohumeral arthritis. The patient apparently had a long head biceps tendon operation as well, perhaps s/l an or in acoa.

The patient has another orthopaedic surgeon in New York that has done a shoulder procedure (he says this in the HPI) and I can't tell if he's saying "an" or "in" acoa.

Thanks MT50.
