Dutch term or phrase: V-cxfl
"CAD, drietaksziekte, LIMA-LAD OK, RIMA-RAC OK, V-cxfl Toe" in the past medical history of a (Flemish) discharge summary. I cannot figure out what V-cxfl is for.

Earlier in the text, the past medical history states "CABG LIMA-LAD, CABG RIMA-RAC, CABG SVG-LCX".
I suspect "Toe" may be short for "transoesofageale echografie" (transesophageal ultrasound), though the official acronym would be TEE, not TOE.

It is a diabetic patient with a protracted cardiovascular history, who finally underwent toe amputation, followed that same year by lower-leg amputation. (Your typical 'Salami protocol', as it is sometimes labeled rather unrespectfully in Dutch.)

Any ideas?
