All of the changes by FTMichael were not bad. There were a couple of POV issues, so I edited that to improve it. Also, added a citation for his comments, changed the citations so they are consistent and reflect the citations in medline. However, just reverting it back to the old version with no explanation tossed some reasonable improvements. NickGorton 19:26, 6 November 2006 (UTC)

I can't find information ANYWHERE on how to pronounce the word Metoidioplasty. Is it like meto-idioplasty? Or is the oi in the middle a diphthong (like "oil") -- met-oid-ioplasty? No online dictionary seems to answer this question. Most people seem to do the "oi" together, but how is the word constructed? Obviously, "meto" might be a prefix, and "idioplasty" the root... or it might not. Enquiring minds want to know where this word comes from and thus how it is pronounced!
