"K wire" vs "K-wire"

[edit]

Deleted 'basically' from opening sentence - needless filler that has no place in a formal description —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.145.144.193 (talk) 16:09, 13 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Not a huge deal, but according to Stedman's Medical Dictionary, the proper abbreviation for "Kirschner wire" is "K-wire" not "K wire." I don't have access to Taber's or Dorland's, so I'm not sure if they agree, but I think Stedman's is the most commonly used standard in the U.S. Adding the hyphens in, but feel free to change/revert if you find a comparable source that prefers it without the hyphen. 24.185.59.146 (talk) 00:25, 28 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]
