Medical / Applying Plaster Casts | | German term or phrase: Axelhöhle | Talking about where to apply a cast:
"Von den Fingerspitzen bis in die Axelhöhle (distal-proximal)"
What on earth is the Axelhöhle? I can't find this word anywhere! Not even the Roche has it! And I get no hits for "axel cavity" or "axel hollow". So I'm totally baffled. Thanks in advance for your help. |

| Grading comment Thank you very much Cristina! Seems like whoever wrote this can't spell! Next time I come across a word that starts with "Axel", I'll be sure to look up "Achsel-". Anyway, thanks heaps once again.
