Spanish term

EX FCO

Spanish to English Medical Medical (general) Cancer, breast cancer, mastectomy
These two acronyms appear in the medical report of a female patient diagnosed with breast cancer and who underwent a mastectomy.

They read as follows:
"EX FCO: Mastectomía izquierda cicatriz normal"

I think FCO means "Fear of cancer recurrence", not sure about EX.

Any help will be appreciated.

Thanks
