Q

Difference in presentation between rigth and left sided colon cancer?

A

Right sided tends to grow in masses that bleed and lead to iron deficiency anemia
Left sided tends to encircle the lumen and are more likely to change stool shape or cause obstruction

Q

which TB drug is associated with drug induced lupus?

A

isoniazid

21
Q

what is the molecular difference between drug induced lupus and SLE ?

A

drug-induced lupus has anti histone antibodies

SLE has anti ds-DNA antibodies

22
Q

what hepatic process is important for isoniazad metabolism?

A

Phase II acetylation.
Patients who have decreased acetylation are at increasd risk for drug induced lupus in response to taking isoniazid, procainamide or hydralazine

23
Q

how does adjustment disorder present?

A

increased anxiety, depressive symptoms and/or disruptive behaviour. Develops within 3 months of a stressor and lasts no more than 6 months after the stressor ends. NO psychotic features

24
Q

does adjustment disorder have psychotic features?

A

no

25
Q

A baby born with findings of a cystic hygroma, lymphedema and coarcation of the aorta are characteristic of what?

A

Turner syndrome XO

26
Q

pathophys of granuloma formation in TB?

A
  • infected macrophages present antigen to helper CD4 t cells
  • macrophages secrete IL12 inducing t cell differentation to Th1 subtype
  • Th1 cells produce IFN GAMMA which activates macrophages, and TNF alpha which recruits more macrophges
  • macrophages limit spread of mycobacteria
27
Q

venous drainage of hemorhoids about the pectinate line? (internal hemorrhoids)

A

superior rectal vein -> inferior mesenteric vein

28
Q

venous drainage of hemorrhoids below the pectinate line (external hemorrhoids)?

A

inferior rectal vein -> internal pudendal vein

29
Q

which inhaled anesthetic is associated with drug-induced liver-injury

A

Halothane

30
Q

how does halothane induced liver injury present?

A

ranges from asymptomatic ALT elevation to fulminant hepatitis
Symptoms include fever, anorexia, nausea, myalgias, arthralgias, rash and tender hepatomegaly/jaundice

31
Q

which lab findings are present in ACUTE (fulminant) hepatitis?

A

increased ALT, elevated PTT from decreased factor VII (shortest half life)

32
Q

is albumin commonly decreased in acute hepatits?

A

No - it has a long half life (20 days) so it is more commonly effected in chronic liver conditiosn

33
Q

which coagulation factor has the shortest half life?

A

factor VII

34
Q

which nerves are found within the prostatic fascia?

A

prostatic plexus which originates from the hypogastic plexus nd goes on to provide parasympethic innervation to the penis (needed for erection)

35
Q

atropine MOA

A

competitively inhibits Ach Muscariinic receptor

36
Q

what is the difference between tertiary and quaternary cholinesterase inhibitors?

A

ONLY tertiary cross the BBB

37
Q

is physostigmine a tertiary or quaternary cholinesterase inhibitor?

A

Tertiary - can cross the BBB and thus treats CNS symptoms of muscarinic antagonists (atropine)

38
Q

is neostigmine a tertiary or quaternary cholinesterase inhibitor?

A

quaternary -does not cross BBB

39
Q

is edrophonium and pyridostigmine a tertiary or quaternary cholinesterase inhibitor?

A

quaternary -does not cross BBB

40
Q

valproate MOA

A

blocks voltage gated Na channels leading to increased GABA release

41
Q

which bone tumour has cells that express the RANKL?

A

giant cell tumour

42
Q

which bone tumour has multinucleated giant cells?

A

giant cell tumour

43
Q

which malignant bone cancer has anaplastic small blue cells that resemble lymphocytes?

A

ewing sarcoma

44
Q

which genetic abnormality may be present with ewing sarcoma?

A

11:22 fusion protein

45
Q

XRAY findings of osteosarcoma?

A

codmans triangle (elevated periosteum) and suburst pattern of soft tissue

46
Q

where does chondrosarcoma occur?

A

in the MEDULLLA of pelvis, proximal femur/humerus

47
Q

where are the osteosarcoma tumours found?

A

metaphysis of long bones (often knee)

48
Q

where are giant cell tumours usually found?

A

the epiphysis of long bones

49
Q

where is ewing sarcoma commonly found?

A

diaphysis
