10% Beta-HCG +

AFP -

40
Q

Non-seminoma lab test

A

90% Beta-HCG +

AFP +

41
Q

Bronchiogenic cyst tx

A

posterior to carina –> resect

42
Q

Pericardial cyst tx

A

at right costophrenic angle –> leave alone

43
Q

Most common benign tumor of trachea

A

Papilloma (adults), Hemangioma (children)

44
Q

Most common malignant tumor of trachea

A

SCC (adult), Carcinoid (children)

45
Q

Rapid exsanguination after tracheostomy

A

trachea-innominate artery fistula
-place finger in hole, hold pressure
Median sternotomy
ligation and resection of innominate artery (no graft)
avoided by keeping tracheostomy between 2nd-3rd ring

46
Q

Mangement of trachea-esophageal fistula

A

Place large volume cuff ET below fistula, decomprssive gastrostomy, repair after weaned from ventilator

47
Q

Most common site/source of lung abscess

A

superior segment of RLL, s. aureus

48
Q

Tx of empyema depending on week

A

1: chest tube antibiotics
2 (fibro-proliferative phase): chest tube, antibiotics, VATS/deloculation if no re-expansion
3-4: decortication, fibrous peel occurs around lung (can require intra-pleural tPA, Eloesser flap)

49
Q

Dx of chylothorax

A

Sudan red, increased lymphocyts, TAG >110

50
Q

Tx of chylothorax

A

chest tube, octreotide, low fat diet
if that fails –> ligation of thoracic duct on right
If 2/2 to malignancy will need talc pleurodesis

51
Q

Result of r–> L shunt

A

cyanosis (tetralogy of Fallot)

52
Q

Result of L –> R shunt

A

CHF (VSD, ASD, PDA)

53
Q

Eisenmenger’s syndrome

A

L–>R shunt to R–>L shunt

54
Q

Ductus arteriosus

A

connection between descending aorta & left pulmonary artery, shunts blood away from lungs

55
Q

Ductus venosum

A

connection between portal vein and IVC, shunts blood away from liver

56
Q

Fetal circulation

A

2 umbilical arteries

1 umbilical vein

57
Q

Tx of VSD

Repair (if large @ 1yr, If medium @ 5yr) - earlier if failure to thrive

58
Q

ASD defects

A 
Ostium secundum (most common, central)
Ostium primum (frequent in Down's syndrome)
59
Q

Tx of ASD

A

diuretics, digoxin, repair at 1-2 years of age

60

RV hypertrophy

61
Q

Most common congenital heart defect that results in cyanosis

A

Tetralogy of Fallot

62
Q

Tx of Tetralogy of Fallot

A

B-blocker

Repair (3-6 months): RV outflow tract obstruction removal & enlargement, VSD repair

63
Q

PDA tx

A

Indomethacin causes PDA to close (surgical repair through left thoracotomy if it persists)

64
Q

Left main coronary anatomy

A

branches into left anterior descending and circumflex

65
