5-hiaa in 24hr urine sample

somatostatin receptor scintigraphy

31
Q

medical treatment for carcinoid disease

A

ocreotide and interferon alpha

32
Q

chemotherapy for carcinoid disease

A

reserved for malignant/advanced tumors but still poor efficacy

33

< 2cm: appendectomy

> 2cm: cecectomy or right hemicolectomy

35

surgery for gastric tumors in carcinoid disease

A

<2 cm: endoscopic removal

>2 cm: partial or total gastrectomy with nodal excision

37
Q

surgery for duodenal cancers in carcinoid disease

A

<1 cm: endoscopic

>1 cm: open, whipple’s procedure

38
Q

other procedures for carcinoid disease

A

lung and bronchial resection
partial hepatectomy and liver transplant
valvular heart replacement

39
Q

definition of men 1

A

occurence of neoplasms in at least 2 endo tissues (parathyroid, endocrine pancreas, pituitary, thyroid, adrenals)

hyperparathyroidism and gastrinoma* or insulinoma

40
Q

treatment for men 1

A

total parathyroidectomy with intramuscular autotranspalntation or subtotal 3 1/2 gland removal

pancreaticoduodenal resesction if >2 cm for net

41
Q

t/f insulinomas are better because they are benign, while gastrinomas are usually malignant

A

true

42
Q

prinipal feature of both types of men2

A

medullary thyroid carcinoma

43
Q

clinical features of men2a

A

pheochromocytoma and hyperparathyroidism

44
Q

clinical features of men2b

A
neuromata, prognathism
skeletal abnormalities
marfanoid habitus
ganglioneuromas in gi forming megacolon
NO HYPERPARATHYROIDISM
45
Q

men2 treatment

A
  • total thyroidectomy with central neck node dissection for mtc
  • ca/pentagastrin stimulation test
  • bilateral adrenalectomy for pheochromocytoma
  • subtotal or total parathyroidectomy
46
Q

indications for bariatric surgery

A

> 40 bmi with failed adequate exercise and diet program

obese patients with related conditions (hpn, dm, osa)

47
Q

classifications of bariatric surgery

A

malabsorptive and restrictive (page 6)

48
Q

malabsorptive types of bariatric surgeries

A
biliopancreatic diversion (stomach resection, duodenum and jejunum bypass)
jejunoileal bypass
endoluminal sleeve (incision free)
49
Q

restrictive types of bariatric surgeries

A
vertical band gastroplasty (staple)
gastric banding (gastric pouch + narrow outlet, safest)
sleeve gastrectomy (stomach reduction, irreversible)
intragastric balloon
50
Q

side effects of biliopancreatic diversion

A

malabsorption and malnutrition

53 kg weight loss in 3 years

51
Q

side effects of jejunoileal bypass

A

no longer performed due to bacterial enteritis & arthritis-dermatitis syndrome

52
Q

effects of endoluminal sleeve

A

30% weight loss in 6 months

can be a precursor to another bariatric procedure
safe to use in t2dm

53
Q

effects of sleeve gastrectomy

A

30-50% weight loss in 6-12 mos

dumping syndrome is less likely to occur due to pyloric preservation

54
Q

effects of intragastric balloon

A

reduction of 5-9 in bmi within 6 mos

can be left for 6 mos and be precuursor for another bariatric surgery

55
Q

combined malabsorptive and restrictive type of bariatric surgery

A

roux-en-y gastric bypass - divides proximal stomach and connects to distal limb of small bowel

56
Q

effects of roux en y surgery

A

greater and faster weight loss

dumping syndrome can help patient avoid high calorie sweets

57
Q

side effects of roux en y

A

decreased absorption of iron, ca, and minerals = anemia and osteoporosis

58
Q

nutritional supplementation post-bariatric surgery

A

page 7

59
Q

complications after bariatric surgery

  • gallstone formation = prophylactic cholecystectomy
  • gastric dumping syndrome
  • site leakages
  • incisional hernnia and operative-site infections
60
Q

excess weight loss for different bariatric procedures

A

agb: 46.2%
roux en y: 59.5%
biliopancreatic diversion: 63.3%
