27-year-old obese woman presents with right iliac fossa pain associated with anorexia, nausea, and vomiting. On examination, there is moderate right lilac fossa tenderness. Labs:
Leukocytosis. What is the most appropriate management?
A - Open surgery
B - CT
C - US
D - Diagnostic laparoscopy

Abdulrahman: The answer is CT (here Alvarado score is 6). Although, you definitely have to do a pregnancy test before doing the CT.

Similar question : 17 years with history of right iliac fossa pain rebound tenderness +ve guarding. what is the investigation next :
A- laparoscopy
B- US
C- CT scan

Abdulrahman: The answer is laparoscopy (diagnostic first then therapeutic) (Dr. J also agrees). In the full recall (couldn't find it), the patient had an Alvarado score of 7 (no other possible diagnosis other than appendicitis) and the patient is presenting in less than 48 hours. If the patient is presenting with an Alvarado score <7, go for a CT scan. This question also came up in my exam where I got 100% in surgery.
Pt with abdominal pain, imaging shows: increase thickness of sigmoid and thumb print due to edema. What is the next step??
A- Colonoscopy
B- Diagnostic laparoscopy
C- Exploratory laparotomy

Abdulrahman: The answer is A (also answered by Dr. Thawaba). UTD: The splenic flexure and the rectosigmoid junction are at high risk for colonic ischemia because they are “watershed areas.” The intestines can tolerate a state of ischemia for approx. 6 hours. Colonoscopy: Procedure of choice in mild to moderate cases of ischemic colitis.
4 y.o his went to doctor because parents recognize blood in stool this the only
symptoms Then the doctor examined him and said it’s common and can be preventable:
A- anal fissure
B- hemorrhoids
C- juvenile poly
D- Intusseption

Abdulrahman: Between these choices, anal fissures are the only one that is common and preventable. Hemorrhoids are uncommon at this age and intussusception and juvenile polyp cannot be prevented if you have non-controllable risk factors.
Rta female when you talk to her she moans O2 sat 65% no other details
A- Tracheostomy
B- Nasotracheal t
C- Endoteachial t
D- Laryngeal mask

Abdulrahman: The answer is C, since this is a trauma case. There are no indications for tracheostomy or cricothyroidotomy. You need a permanent airway since she is moaning (indicating decreased GCS). Dr. J: The best in supporting the airway is always Orotracheal. After that, cricothyrotomy. Nasotracheal is not ideal in an emergency setting. Also, if there is facial or C-spine injury, DON’T do orotracheal, go for cricothyrotomy.
7 ys girl with dark macule on her cheek dx
A- Venous malformation
B- Lymphatic malformation
C- AV malformation
D- Hemangioma

Abdulrahman: Could be A or C. If she is born with it, this is most likely capillary malformation (Sturge-weber syndrome). If it comes after birth slowly, this is hemangioma of infancy. Hemangiomas usually involutes at 2-6 years:

A- Echocardiography
B- Chest x-ray and ECG

Abdulrahman: The answer is nothing/follow-up since the carcinoma is at the tip of the appendix. Here is the approach to carcinoids from the appendix from Dr. J:
A patient PCOS what should be investigated
A- Glucose tolerance and lipid profile
B- Thyroid profile

Another recall: Patient with PCOS, what should be investigated:
A. Glucose tolerance and lipid profile
B. Thyroid profile
C. testosterone level

Abdulrahman: We’re not sure of her age and if she is diagnosed or just has the symptoms. If she was not diagnosed, the answer is testerone levels (part of the rotterdam criteria). If diagnosed, do the glucose tolerance and lipid profile since PCOS patients have a high risk of dyslipidemia and diabetes.
