Diarrhea
cramping
cardiac?
valvular(more at right)
pulmonary?
Bronchospasm
Miscellaneous?
Niacin deficiency (diharoa, dermatitis, and dementia)
diagnosis?
Elevated 24 Hr 5-HIAA
CT/MRI–detect metastasis
Osteoscan to detect metastasis
Echocardiogram
treatment?

Liver surgery for metastasis
common location?
Distal small bowl
Proximal colon
Lung
spontaneous bacterial peritonitis risk?
Temperature >37.8
altered mental status
Abdominal discomfort/tenderness
Hypotension/Hypothermia in severe infection
Diagnosis?
PMN>250g/dL
A positive culture(G-ve) for peritoneal fluid
Protein <1g/dl
SAAG>=1.1g/dl

Floroquinilol for prophlaxix
Future of Dubin Jhonson S and Rotor syndrome?
chronic relapsing and remitting jaundice
Bilirubin in urine(B/C of unecreted CB)
Normal AST/ALT and ALP
IN DJS-Dark liver due to lysosomal storage
trigger?
Acute illness
Pregnancy
OCP
pathophysiology?
Defect in CB excresion
ACute erosive gastropathy?
Severe hemorrhagic lesion after exposure to substance that damage gastric mucosa.
factors?
NSAID-Decrease PG secretion
Cocaine-vasoconstriction
Alcohol-direct injury to the mucosa
pathogenesis?
Mucosal injury–Acid/Bile acid/Protease enter to lamina propira–vascular injury
CM?
Hematemisis
Abdominal pain
Aorticoenteric fistula?
Life-threatening GI hemorrhage
RISK factor?
Older age
Previous aneurysm
Prior GI surgery
Malignancy
esophageal varicess?
Occurs in 30-60% of patients
The major cause of morbidity and mortality in cirrhosis
Screening endoscopy is recomended in all Pt with cirhosis
when to check ammonia level in cirrhosis?
symptom of hepatic encephalopathy
also, asses risk factor when HE present
Management(survilance)?
Liver U/S and alpha-fetoprotein every 6 month
EGD scopy
primary prophylaxis for VB indication?
small with bleeding risk
medium and large varices
what to do?
Endoscopic variceal ligation
Non-selective beta blocker
EVL Indication?
patient preference
large varices
NSBB drug and mechanism?
Propranolol/nadolol
beta blockage–inhibit adrenergic vasodilation in mesenteric arterioles and unopposed alpha effect–vasoconstriction-decrease blood flow
