Medical - Medical (general)
Czech term or phrase: KU nezv.
As before, same piece of text:

Zornice izo, skléry anikter., DÚ bpn., **KU nezv.**

nezv. may be "irreversible" (?) - I can't think what KU is.

Explanation:
KU = krční uzliny

I have found that the lymph nodes in the neck area are called "cervical lymph nodes" or "submandibular lymph nodes".
In my opinion, "lymph nodes" is enough for the medical report :-)

Thank you. I believe it's "cervical", and I've also taken note of "lymph node". In fact there were less abbreviated forms of these (or related) terms elsewhere in the text. Things become a bit clearer when you have time to think!

  -> thank you, David! It seems that jugular gland is behind the clavicle, while the correct expression for "krční uzliny" is "cervical (or submandibular) lymph nodes"
