Latin to English translations [PRO]
Medical - Medical (general) / Medical Record | | Latin term or phrase: decubitus | The context is: 'cum defecto osseo steomielitis calcanei 1 sin decubitus reg calcanei sin'. 'Osseo steomielitis' is clearly enough for 'osteomyelitis' and 'sin' for 'sinistri'. Buty 'decubitus' has me stumped. I'm not even sure whethr 'decubitus' is a real word in Latin.
Again, I should genuinely appreciate any help that someone might offer. |
