Medical - Medical (general) / Surgical procedure
Spanish term or phrase: col
The following appears in a medical report from Ecuador: Anesthesia para limpieza quirurgica + cierre de herida en miembro inferior + col de via venosa periferica + 15% EMG. I am not sure what "col" indicates in this context. Can anyone help? Thanks, John.
