1
Q

Case 37yo M, waking up coughing at night, bitter liquid in mouth, after eating large meal before bed, sharp substernal chest pain, radiates to back

mild HTN
pain in knees
obesity
NSAID use

takes PPIs - it helps

returns 6 months with recurrence

scope - erosive esophagitis - no intestinal metaplasia

A

GERD

DDx - PUD, asthma, COPD, atypical angina

after recurrence - scope - because has alarm symptoms - difficult and painful swallowing**

increase effectiveness of PPI - take H2RA

Q

surgery for GERD

A

laparoscopic nissen fundoplication

Q

Case 45yo M - pain pit of stomach, intermittent epigastric radiates to back

  • worse with eating and getting up
  • pain levels vary 3-6/10
  • pain worse after ethanol
  • NSAID use for muscle aches
  • increased stress
  • stool weakly guiac positive
A

gastric ulcer

is urgent - check CBC
-microcytic hypochromic anemia

next - EGD

biopsy - h pylori

tx - triple threapy

  • six weeks later - similar symptoms
  • scope again - look for cancer

Q

stress

A

can increase acid production

28
Q

peptic ulcer disease

A

duodenal - 2-3 hours after eating, relieved by food

gastric - right after eating, worse with food

chronic low grade bleeding - iron deficiency anemia

29
Q

PUD diagnosis

A

barium swallow

EGD - higher sensitivity and specificity - allows biopsy - for h pylori

30
Q

etiology of PUD

A

h pylori
acid secretory testing
NSAID

31
Q

duodenal ulcers

A

virtually never malignant

but gastric ulcers can be malignant

32
Q

agar gel test

A

test ammonia from biopsy
-surrounding material turn purple - ammonia present

h pylori test - because it has urease

33
Q

h pylori

A

gram negative
flagellated
spiral bacteria

produces urease - splits urea to CO2 and ammonia

endemic loser SES groups

20% infected individuals develop ulcers

  • 80% duodenal h pylori
  • 60% gastric h pylori
34
Q

gram negative, spiral, flagellated

A

h pylori

35
Q

diagnose of h pylori

A

agar gel slide test

serology IgG Ab to h pylori - shows exposure a while ago - not necessarily now

urea breath test

stool antigen

36
Q

high false negative with PPI

A

urea breath test and stool antigen

37
Q

C13 urea breath test

A

for h pylori

-13C broken down to CO2 by h pylori - breathed out and results in positive test

38
Q

triple therapy

A

for h pylori

PPI bid
metrondiazole
amoxicillin/clarithromycin

39
Q

quadruple therapy

A

for h pylori

PPI bid
bismuth
tetracycline
metrondiazole

40
Q

post-tx testing for PUD

A

repeat EGD for gastric ulcers - look for cancer

h pylori test for duodenal ulcer - 4 weeks after last PPI tx

41
Q

choledochal cyst

A

type 1 - extrahepatic dilation
type 2 - diverticuli
type 3 - intrapancreatic - difficult to treat** whipple procedure
type 5 - caroli - intrahepatic

42
Q

Case 35yo F epigastric pain after eating fat food, radiate chest and right shoulder, sometimes diarrhea

normal amylase/lipase

A

cholelithiasis

DDx - PUD, pancreatitis, gastritis

abdominal ultrasound - no stones - but sludge

returns 18 months later - sx never went away - pain worsened - avoids eating - 8/10

ultrasound - sludge and thickened wall

HIDA with CCK - EF 15%
-know have chronic acalculous cholecystitis

43
Q

biliary colic

A

temporary pain goes away

44
Q

acute cholecystitis

A

pain that stays

45
Q

ultrasound for gallstone

A

95% sensitive** - stones >2mm

but 50% in common bile duct

46
Q

HIDA scan

A

useful in questionable cases of acute calculous cholecystitis

contrast to liver that gives image of biliary tree and gallbladder

CCK - to make gallbladder contract

measure how much comes out - if <35% - biliary dyskinesia**

47
Q

biliary dyskinesia

A

measure on HIDA scan with CCK

diagnostic of acalculous cholecystitis

48
Q

chronic cholecystitis

A

acalculous and calculous

biliary colic
-visceral pain - self limmiting - fats or rich meals

few physical findings

49
Q

acute cholecystitis

A

acalculous and calculous

biliary colic - becomes parietal pain - persistant and escalating, N/V

RUQ tender - murphys sign

elevated WBC

elevated liver enzyme and amylase

acalculous - patient with c-o-existing disease process

50
Q

tx chronic cholecystitis

A

benefit from laparoscopic cholecystectomy

remove of gallbladder

51
Q

Case 27yo M, RUQ pain, N/V, pain suddenly goes away 4-6 hours, sharp and crampy and unrelievable, feverish

  • ulcerative colitis
  • sulfasalazine

58
Q

cholangitis

A

tx - hydration - antibiotics - ductal drainage

urgent if reynolds pentad**

59
