German term or phrase: nach medial schlagen
Hello ProZers,
I am translating an OP report and I cannot figure out an elegant way to phrase this.
Here is the context:
Diese Gefaesse werden angeschlossen und anschliessend die Niere mobilisiert und vor dem Hintergrund einer moeglichen kompletten Entfernung des Tumors die Niere nach medial geschlagen, zuvor wird noch der Ureter angezuegelt.

Your help would be much appreciated!

centered


Explanation:
medial means centered in medicine,
but "nach medial schlagen", not sure to be honest, sounds somehow weird to me, maybe simply 'centered' ? for 'arranging' it centered?
