Schobinger 1957-(fig 3a and 3b) Higher horizontal incision allows easier access to oral cavity and
various modifications for posterior vertical limb.
Shorter superior flap allows midline lip splitting extension with less likelihood of loss of tip (Becker 1984, fig 3c)

Also found:

Surgical treatment of many tumors of the head and neck require extended approaches. Many cervicotomies have been described in the treatment of head and neck and cervical tumors; careful thought must be made by a surgeon when surgical treatment is planned for an extended tumor.Our purpose is to show the versatility of the modified Schobinger incision.

I'm doing a discharge summary by an ESL, and he's going through all the lab data results.  He says urine culture done on xx/xx/xx, showed s/l protease monoblez more than 100,00 _____/mL.  


Meanwhile, back to Google I go to try and figure this out!

Doc says..also brings with her numerous labs including labs showing borderline....s/l DATA... levels. 


She kind of stumbles over this and I could not find anything on DATA or data levels so I was going to flag it.  She then goes on to say....She tried oral...s/l DATA without success. 


It is pretty clear the second time but I cannot find anything on this.  Is this correct and would it be all CAPS?


Thanks.
