Rovsing’s sign : right lower abdominal quadrant pain elicited by pressure applied on left lower quadrant.
In the case of appendicitis, the appendix is clogged and distended. In time, a full-thickness inflammation of the wall will develop that will irritate the peritoneum.
The purpose of applying pressure in the left lower quadrant is double,
- This maneuver pushes intestinal content from the left lower abdomen in an antiperistaltic fashion, increasing pressure in the colon and thus the appendix, and further irritating the peritoneum eliciting tenderness at the site of inflammation.
- The pressure is far away from the expected location of the pain, and the indirect tenderness suggests a less biased (more objective) localization of the pain.
The predictive power of Rovsing’s sign (indirect tenderness) is much greater than that of the even more generally known McBurney’s point tenderness (direct tenderness).

Persistent Müllerian duct syndrome
A case with persistent Müllerian-duct syndrome:
A 38-year-old man was found to have a uterus, fallopian tubes, and a gonad in the left hernial sac during herniorrhaphy. The patient developed a left scrotal sac swelling postoperatively.
On physical examination, the right scrotal sac was empty. The left scrotal sac appeared boggy. The patient was phenotypically male, with male pattern of external genitalia and secondary sexual characteristics. The past history included primary infertility.

Urothelial carcinoma in situ (CIS) is a type of bladder cancer, and it's treated, weirdly enough, with intravesical BCG vaccine
الفكرة هي أنه نملأ المثانة بمحلول يحتوي على الـ BCG vaccine اللي رح يحفز الجهاز المناعي حتى يهاجم الـ CIS
شلون وليش الـ BCG vaccine يعالج السرطان؟ that's a long story...

The Ankle Brachial Index (ABI): is basically the systolic pressure at the ankle divided by the systolic pressure at the arm.
It has been shown to be a specific and sensitive metric for the diagnosis of Peripheral Arterial Disease (PAD)
