Study Notes
Cancer Diagnosis
- A probable diagnosis for a small, painful mass under the nipple with liquid blood discharge is papiloma intraductal.
- A tumor associated with oral contraceptive use is adenoma.
Cancer Symptoms
- Hipercalcemia, Cushing's syndrome, and myasthenia-like syndrome indicate that cancer has spread and cannot be operated on.
- Ginecomastia is not an indicator of cancer spread.
Cancer Recurrence
- The most common site of recurrent breast cancer is the axillary lymph nodes.
Esophageal Cancer
- Adenocarcinoma in the lower esophagus likely originated from an ulcer in Barrett's esophagus.
Hernias
- The most common type of hiatus hernia is the sliding type.
Appendicitis
- Appendectomy is recommended during abdominal surgery to prevent future complications, as appendicitis can still occur after laparotomy.
Carcinoid Syndrome
- Clinical manifestations of carcinoid syndrome include flushing, diarrhea with abdominal pain, bronchospasm with wheezing, and right-sided heart failure.
- Hypergastric secretion is not a manifestation of carcinoid syndrome.
Vascular Occlusion
- Symptoms of vascular occlusion of the mesentery include sudden, severe abdominal pain, disproportionate to physical signs, and the desire to defecate.
Diverticulitis
- A key difference between carcinoma and diverticulitis of the sigmoid colon is the presence of fever.
Spleen Disorders
- Esplenectomy is useful in all hemolytic states except for glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase deficiency anemia.
Porto-Systemic Shunt
- Uncontrolled ascites, need for vitamin K to normalize prothrombin time, bilirubin level > 2 mg/dl, bromosulphalein retention > 20%, and albumin level < 2.5 g/dl indicate poor prognosis after porto-systemic shunt.
Intestinal Obstruction
- A double-bubble appearance on a simple radiograph indicates intestinal obstruction.
Inflammatory Bowel Disease
- Complications of Crohn's disease include adhesions, internal fistula, fibrosis, and intestinal obstruction, but not polyps.
Tumor Carcinoid
- Active substances involved in carcinoid syndrome include serotonin, 5-hydroxytryptophan, calcitonin, and histamine, but not parathormone.
Mallory-Weiss Syndrome
- The pathology of Mallory-Weiss syndrome consists of a tear in the esophagus.
Hemorrhoids
- External thrombosed hemorrhoids typically manifest as a sudden, painful swelling, appear at the anal margin as a tense, bluish mass, and may ulcerate and bleed.
Hirsutism
- Excessive hirsutism in women can be caused by Cushing's disease, arrhenoblastoma, and Stein-Leventhal syndrome, but not Brenner tumor.
Hemobilia
- The triad of hemobilia, jaundice, and colicky abdominal pain after abdominal trauma suggests hemobilia.
Diarrheal Disease
- In an infant with acute diarrhea, the presence of liquid stools without blood or mucus suggests E. coli infection.
Parasites
- Echinococcus is not infested through the percutaneous route.
Molar Pregnancy
- The most constant sign of molar pregnancy is an enlarged uterus larger than expected for gestational age.
Trophoblastic Disease
- Among patients with trophoblastic disease, those with pulmonary metastases have the best prognosis.### Uterine Activity
- Uterine activity is measured in units of Montevideo (UM).
- The formula to calculate uterine activity is AU=Int x Frec.
Contraction and Relaxation Phases
- The contraction phase is not the longest phase of uterine contractions.
- The rapid relaxation phase is similar in duration to the contraction phase.
Isoimmunization
- Isoimmunization occurs due to an immune response to Rh antigens.
- The primary immune response is mediated by IgM.
- IgM antibodies do not cross the placenta easily and do not cause hemolysis in the fetus.
- IgG antibodies, on the other hand, cross the placenta easily and can cause hemolysis.
Coombs Test
- The indirect Coombs test is used to detect the presence of antibodies in the mother's blood.
- It is used during pregnancy to detect potential hemolytic diseases of the fetus.
- The direct Coombs test is used to detect antibodies attached to the fetus's red blood cells.
- It is used in the fetus or newborn to detect hemolytic disease.
Mammary Gland Development
- The mammary gland develops from the ectoderm.
- The mesoderm and endoderm are not involved in its development.
Fetal Position
- The term "position" refers to the relationship between the fetus's reference point and the mother's right or left hip.
Ectopic Pregnancy
- The most accurate method for diagnosing ectopic pregnancy is laparoscopy.
- Culdocentesis, ultrasound, and colposcopy are less accurate methods.
Complications of Pregnancy
- The most common cause of preterm labor is premature rupture of membranes.
- Twin pregnancies are associated with an increased risk of complications, including anemia, hypertension, and bleeding.
- The risk of hydramnios is increased in certain conditions, including anencephaly, esophageal atresia, and twin pregnancies.
Placental Transfer
- The transfer of drugs across the placenta is facilitated by certain properties, including low molecular weight and non-ionization.
- The placenta can transfer IgG antibodies, which can cause hemolysis in the fetus.
Fetal Development
- The risk of post-maturity is increased in certain conditions, including fetal distress and hypertension.
- The presence of meconium during labor has little significance.
Pelvis
- The gynecoid pelvis is the most common type, occurring in 60% of patients.
- The conjugate diagonal and oblique diameters are similar in the gynecoid pelvis.
Oxytocin
- Oxytocin is an octapeptide hormone.
- It can cause antidiuretic effects in high doses.
Prostaglandins
- Prostaglandins are used to stimulate uterine contractions.
- They can cause diarrhea and should be used carefully in patients with asthma.
Forceps
- The left branch of forceps is called the "left branch" because it relates to the left hip of the mother.
Abortion
- An inevitable abortion is characterized by a permeable os and cervical dilation.
- It can occur in any trimester of pregnancy.
Pre-Eclampsia
- The most common retinal change associated with pre-eclampsia is arteriolar spasm.
Labor
- The third stage of labor is the period of placental delivery.
- The second plane of Hodges is the level of the biparietal diameter at the level of the sacral vertebrae.
Placental Separation
- The mechanism of placental separation where the placenta separates laterally, producing bleeding before the placenta is expelled, is called the Duncan mechanism.
Urticaria
- The most common cause of urticaria is food.
Melanoma
- The most common site of melanoma origin is the nevus of union.
Medications
- Certain medications, such as propanolol, can cause pulmonary edema.
- Rifampicin is primarily eliminated through the bile.
Anemia
- The type of anemia that occurs with more than 15% reticulocytes is hemolytic anemia.
Burns
- The most common cause of death in patients with extensive burns is septicemia.
Disphagia
- The most common cause of dysphagia in adults is esophagitis.
Pleural Effusion
- The most common cause of serofibrinous pleural effusion is tuberculosis.
Fungi
- Histoplasma capsulatum is a type of fungus that commonly infects the lungs.
Neurology
- The type of fungus that commonly infects the lungs is histoplasma capsulatum.
- A patient presenting with sudden unconsciousness and right hemiplegia, without hypertension, with atrial fibrillation, is likely to have an embolic stroke.
Sensitivity
- Palesthesia is a type of sensitivity that is explored with a tuning fork.
Angina Pectoris
- The diagnosis of angina pectoris is made based on the patient's history.
