Study Notes

Mycetoma Lesions

Lesions of mycetoma are characteristically painless.
Skin lesions associated with mycetoma can appear cystic in nature.
Mycetoma lesions may also present as hard masses.

Esophageal and Rectal Conditions

Abnormal production of H+ in the stomach can cause acid-induced damage in the lower and middle esophagus.
Loss of peristalsis and relaxation of the lower esophageal sphincter are significant complications of esophageal conditions.
Common complications in rectal conditions include rectal fissures, rectocutaneous fistulas, and perirectal abscesses.
Arthritis can arise as a complication of certain gastrointestinal disorders.

Complications during pregnancy can include:
- Abruptio placenta (premature separation of the placenta)
- Umbilical cord prolapse (cord slips ahead of the fetus)
- Degenerating fibroid (non-cancerous growths in the uterus)
- Placental insufficiency (ineffective nutrient transfer)
- Placenta previa (placenta covering the cervix)

Child Development Milestones

A child may recognize only the words "Ma" and "Dada" clearly.
The child exhibits difficulty in building a tower of 4 cubes.
The child struggles with throwing an object, indicating potential delays in motor skills.
