follow-up appointment
Subject: follow-up appointment

follow-up is actually an adjective in that example. I was trained to use hyphenated form for adjectives, but it is usually client preference anyway. I will see him in followup, would be the noun form.
s/l osbot appointment?
Subject: s/l osbot appointment?

Patient has ED.  Doctor says, May be interested in VED.  If he is, he will call and set up an osbot(?) appointment.


VED may not even be correct.

"visually occlusive" quite frequently during this type exam.  Hope this helps.
I don't think that would be it because the dr who dictated it is a urologist.

I got this from the Peds Urologist I work from Arizona. SM
Subject: I got this from the Peds Urologist I work from Arizona. SM


This a bladder augmentation with the small bowel ileum (ileocystoplasty) and the creation of a continent catheterizable channel using the small bowel and reconfiguring that into a short tube or channel that is implanted into the bladder. That allows the patient to catheterize from the abdomen (often the belly button) rather than having to cath through the urethra since after the augmentation they usually can not void enough to empty the enlarged bladder. It was described by a physician named Montie (I think at the Univ of Miami) and is now often called a Montie catheterizable channel. Both are an attempt to make a small bladder (eg neurogenic bladder) bigger to hold more urine and avoid urinary incontinence. Essentially trading an enlarged bladder with the need for catheterization to maintain continence for too small a bladder and incontinence. PEG

Successful Outpatient Management of the Nonpalpable Intra-abdominal Testis With Staged Fowler-Stephens Orchiopexy


[[[ Dhanani NN, Cornelius D, Gunes, A Ritchey, ML 
The Journal of Urology.  2005; 172 (6) : 2399-2401]]]



Management of the high intra-abdominal testis is a challenging surgical procedure. Most pediatric urologists today would advocate either a laparoscopic or transabdominal orchiopexy to keep the gonadal vessels intact, but in some patients the testicular artery will be too short and not amenable to a standard orchiopexy. Preservation of these testicles requires either a microvascular procedure, in which the testicular vessels are reanastomosed to larger vessels in the leg, or a staged procedure, in which the vessels are ligated in the first operation, and the testicle is mobilized on a wide strip of peritoneum and moved to the scrotum on the basis of the blood supply of the vas deferens. Recognition of the patients who will require a 2-stage Fowler-Stephens procedure early in the initial exploration is probably one of the most important aspects of achieving a good outcome. Early recognition allows the avoidance of manipulation and possible injury of the collateral blood supply of the vas deferens and peritoneum that is necessary for a successful second-stage procedure. A prior meta-analysis of the previously reported 2-stage Fowler-Stephens procedures found an overall success rate of only 69%. The study authors review their success with a 2-stage Fowler-Stephens procedure.
