I quite agree most of your answeer but disagree with the following:
Common organism:Entercocus
Increase KCO with GN: CSS bcause Gn in sarcodsis is rare
PMR not polymyosities
Cardiomyopathy
Oral anticoagulation bcoz CHAD2VASC2 score>2
recuurent VVS: avoiding the situation and aware

agree with u but about morphine continue wit stool softener

Even I answered Enterococcus for common pathogen but had a look on one
research paper which says E. coli is common
I think GN question had neuropathy as well, so I went for CSS ? For neuritis
Nurse with syncopal episodes had urinary incotinence as well, I went for EEG
and imaging

next appropiate Mx of Status epilepticus:


lorazepum or I/v phenytoin?
i did select i/v phenytoin but not sure?
Level of obstruction:cystic duct.
polymyositis is weakness and/or loss of muscle mass in the proximal
musculature, as well as flexion of the neck and torso.[1] These symptoms can
be associated with marked pain in these areas as well.

hi there all, i think we should start discussion on all questions one by one, esp
the ones on disputes.. what u think?>

@DRATTARI u did great effort, thanks...


i agree with most of ur answers but on few disagree and few i wrote down

8. LQTS: Which drug? i choose CITALOPRAM


13. Histology : sq/basal/actinic? i choose BASAL
4. Histology : vitiligo --- i choose absent melanocytes
15. heriditary angioedema , presents with 6 hours of severe tongue swelling:
Rx? it was difficult.. was it C1 concentrate or adrenaline 1:1000 IM.. i choose
adrenaline.. i thought this time patient has allergic reaction sign... may be i m
wrong
16. gallstone obstruction level? in this question as patient was having
conjugated high and he did billious vomiting, it means his bile was coming down
and he has obstruction...so thinking this i choose ?Duodenum...
19. COPD: there was a question on COPD, i don't know is it the same or
different, his PH was fine and also patient don't have any secondary causes to
start LTOT. i choose medical treatment...?
and another COPD q i choose Non invasive
26. R.A.S. : dec. Renin and Inc aldosterone ..prim hyperaldosteronism con's
29. Pain and stiffness in shoulders and hips: ? Amytrophic lateral sclerosis/
polymyositis? i agree with polymyositis
28: ++++ proteinuria , after a viral illness: MCD vs Viral cardiac myopathy? i
agree with MCD
33. Weekly headache: propranolo/ CBT/ neurology consult/ CT scan ;;;; i think
its migraine as per diagnostic criteria for migraine, unilateral headache, sever
intensity, nausea & vomiting,,, i choose Propranolol as prophylaxis
34. VV syncope : do nothing -----i agree with EEG AND BRAIN IMAGING
36. Dermatology pic: Hemangioma?/ basal cell? BASAL CELL i choose
Oral anticoagulation bcoz CHAD2VASC2 score>2
48. Median nerve : splint / decompression==== i choose splint?
56. esophageal rupture : esophagogram / CT chest? i choose water soluble
contrast..if negative then we go esophagogram..if negative then ct chest---my
opinion
43. NSCLC : thoracotomy/mediastinoscopy? i went for mediastinoscopy
44. Status epilepticus : IV bengodiazepines i choose as 1st option
70. External/internal Intercostals/ diaphragm weakness:?? i choose diaphragm
weakness--?
68. Lung functions with dec transfer factor: Sarcoidosis not sure of this question
but i think either asthma was there..

74. HIV confirmation: p24 antigen


76. Mass in neck and stridor : tracheostomy
80. Admitted pt, nurses observed decreased appetite : nutrition? : oral ? i went
for oral. as patient stable..

Thanks softin . a little discussion :


8. LQTS: Which drug? i choose CITALOPRAM .I also chose this but i am not sure
does it cause or not
13. Histology : sq/basal/actinic? i choose BASAL . I opt squamous as there were
mitotic cells, spindle cells and increased keratinocytes.
4. Histology : vitiligo --- i choose absent melanocytes , I agree, I looked in text ,
actually absent melanocytes and dec.melanin are both present but absent
melanocytes is the major pathology that I opted
15. heriditary angioedema , presents with 6 hours of severe tongue swelling:
Rx? it was difficult.. was it C1 concentrate or adrenaline 1:1000 IM.. i choose
adrenaline.. i thought this time patient has allergic reaction sign... may be i m
wrong : i opted as same.
16. gallstone obstruction level? in this question as patient was having
conjugated high and he did billious vomiting, it means his bile was coming down
and he has obstruction...so thinking this i choose ?Duodenum.: There was
Positive murphys sign , looks like CBD , not sure
19. COPD: there was a question on COPD, i don't know is it the same or
different, his PH was fine and also patient don't have any secondary causes to
start LTOT. i choose medical treatment...? :The criteria for chooosing LTOT was
there , plethoric, chronic type II resp failure etc , so I went for LTOT:

and another COPD q i choose Non invasive : for this first thing in the
management steps is to decrease Fio2 to 24-28% , if it does not help then the
next step is NIV.

26. R.A.S. : dec. Renin and Inc aldosterone ..prim hyperaldosteronism con's :
The pateint with peripheral vascular dis, and renal bruits making RAS likely. In
this situation dec blood flow to Renal artries causes Inc Renin secretion which
then leads to Inc aldosterone production, so its not Conns , as in Conns there in
Inc aldosterone that negative feedbacks to reduce renin.
28: ++++ proteinuria , after a viral illness: MCD vs Viral cardiac myopathy? i
agree with MCD. I did not opt MCD as his renal functions were normal , so i
went for viral.
34. VV syncope : do nothing -----i agree with EEG AND BRAIN IMAGING , The
answer is to avoid and aware that i looked in text. my answer is wrong.
36. Dermatology pic: Hemangioma?/ basal cell? BASAL CELL i choose : It was
tough but I opted hemangioma.
Oral anticoagulation bcoz CHAD2VASC2 score>2: The patient age was less than
75 years , not in CCf , non diabetic , no hx of TIA or strokes, was only
hypertensive making the score 1 , so i went for aspirin.
48. Median nerve : splint / decompression==== i choose splint? :difficult again
as splint and decompression are both treatments written in text , i was
confused so i opted decompression, but I think splinnts at night time looks more
appropriate.
56. esophageal rupture : esophagogram / CT chest? i choose water soluble
contrast..if negative then we go esophagogram..if negative then ct chest---my
opinion : yes its contrast first
43. NSCLC : thoracotomy/mediastinoscopy? i went for mediastinoscopy :
agreed
44. Status epilepticus : IV bengodiazepines i choose as 1st option: In the
guidelines and what our neurologist in my hospital recomends id IV phenytoin ,
so i went for it
70. External/internal Intercostals/ diaphragm weakness:?? i choose diaphragm
weakness--? : I opted same. but why ? no explanation
68. Lung functions with dec transfer factor: Sarcoidosis not sure of this question
but i think either asthma was there.Actually no asthma history given making it
tough to decide , thats why i chose sarcoidosis , but maybe they deliberately
did not give this hx.
74. HIV confirmation: p24 antigen: In books i studied , both P24 antigen and
viral load is written for confirmation , so i was not sure what is best between
these two. I chose viral load.
76. Mass in neck and stridor : tracheostomy : next most appropriate step ? i
went for laryngeal mask : I dont know exact answer as i never dealt with such a
case .
80. Admitted pt, nurses observed decreased appetite : nutrition? : oral ? i went
for oral. as patient stable.. agreed .

For one of questions I answered selenium deficiency. don't remember the


question.
There was a slide of plasma cells : MM

for multiple myeloma -- i m not sure it was plasma cells or osteoclasts???

there was a question with???? angular stomatitis i guess was zinc deficiency..im
not sure really. but i think think there was history of small bowl removed... so
zinc def..

there was a question of mixed resp alkalosis n metabolic acidosis

now i guess i am mixing up things...

I think -MM is best choice


VVS-this is simple vasovagal

Incase of obstruction-if its in CBD causes Jaundicand dilated biliary channel on


USG?
Status Epilepticus:i also choose phenytoin but guideline immmediate next
I/VBDZ

this is zinc becuse selenium mainly cause cartilage & Cardiomyopathy


19. COPD: there was a question on COPD, i don't know is it the same or
different, his PH was fine and also patient don't have any secondary causes to
start LTOT. i choose medical treatment...? :The criteria for chooosing LTOT was
there , plethoric, chronic type II resp failure etc , so I went for LTOT:

I went for medical RX optimization


they mentioned pt is on bronchodilator / nothing else mentioned regarding
medical RX, ICS
?

VVS-this is simple vasovagal


I think there was urinary incontinence in that scenario as well

I will post more themes as I will remember
Increased AFP levels may indicate the presence of cancer, most commonly liver
cancer,

Brain Tumor? Glio Blastoma Multi

Yes glioblastoma multi.


What was the X Ray chest, cancer or abcess?

dont remember x ray

but it was lactic acidosis in hypotension

Lactic acidosis is ok . I mean X Ray chest with RT upper lobe with clubbing??
Cancer/to/ abcess? What was it?

The one in which they were asking that what will be in the sputum. the answer
was hyphe

I don't remember the question you are referring to .

Another was decreased preloaded increased contractility and decreased
after load
Another was distended neck veins and svc obstruction as I remember
Another was ? gonococcal sepsis

Another was sucralfate doesn't affect gastric acid production

I think it was not pul vascular resistance as mechanism of hemoptysis is left


atrial dilatation which led to pulmonary viens congestion
one was warrfarin?

iga nephropathy
one was i think wegeners vd skin lesions and proteinuria..i dont remmbr
exactly
hyphae on sputum

I believe pulmonary Vascular congestion will lead to increased pulmonary


Vascular resistance

Don't know ! One was halo nevus and reassure


Another I remeber ??herpes simplex skin lesion and there was knee pain ??
