Q

A 78-year-old man undergoes preoperative evaluation for left
knee arthroplasty. Other than knee pain, he has no other
symptoms. Medical history is otherwise unremarkable. His only
medication is ibuprofen, which he has recently discontinued.
* On physical examination, vital signs are normal. Diffuse adenopathy with
nodes 1.5 to 2 cm is present in cervical, axillary, and inguinal areas. The
spleen is enlarged 2 cm below the left costal margin.

Q
  • A 55-year-old woman is admitted to the hospital for chemotherapy following a diagnosis of Burkitt lymphoma.
    She is considered to be at high risk for tumor lysis syndrome.
  • On physical examination, blood pressure is 110/60 mm Hg and
    pulse rate is 110/min; the remainder of her vital signs are normal. The patient has large, palpable, bilateral, cervical, supraclavicular, and axillary lymphadenopathy. Cardiopulmonary examination is
    normal.
  • CT imaging of the chest, abdomen, and pelvis at the time of diagnosis revealed bulky mediastinal and periaortic lymphadenopathy.
  • Intravenous isotonic saline is administered at 200 mL/hour.

Quelle mesure additionnelle?
* Acetazolamide
* Allopurinol
* Furosemide
* Rasburicase

A
  • Rasburicase
  • 1) La rasburicase est clairement indiquée pour les situations à haut risque de lyse
    tumorale
  • 2) La diurèse forcée (furosemide) ou l’alacalinisation des urines (acetazolamide)
    ne sont pas recommandés car comportent des risques:
  • Contraction volémique (lasix)
  • Accroissement dépots phospho-calciques (alcalinisation)
  • 3) l’allopurinol n’est pas suffisant dans ce cas

Q
  • A 66-year-old man is evaluated for increased confusion and lethargy over the past 2 days, as well as nausea and vomiting. He has also had diffuse bone pain that began 6 weeks ago and has worsened over the past month. His medical history is otherwise unremarkable, and he takes no medications.
  • On physical examination, temperature is 36.4 °C (97.6 °F), blood pressure is 110/60 mm Hg, pulse rate is 110/min, and respiration rate is 16/min. He is somnolent but can be aroused. Mucous membranes are dry, and he has decreased skin turgor. Cardiopulmonary examination is normal.
  • Results of laboratory studies show an albumin level of 3.8 g/dL (38 g/L), calcium level of 14.8 mg/dL (3.7 mmol/L), and creatinine level of 2.5 mg/dL (221 µmol/L).
    Choix: Meilleur premier choix?
  • Denosumab
  • NaCl 0,9 et calcitonine
  • NaCl 0,9 et furosemide
  • Acide zolendronique
A
  • NaCl 0,9 et calcitonine
    Justification:
  • 1 re étape pour diminuer rapidement calcémie = hydratation
  • Calcitonine peut aussi faire baisser rapidement la calcémie dans un cas aussi malade que celui-ci
    (mais tachyphylaxie rapide en 48h)
  • Acide zolendronique est AUSSI indiqué pour faire diminuer calcémie (mais onset plus lent et pic
    d’action 3-7 jours) (vs heures pour soluté et calcitonine)
  • X-geva = cas réfractaires aux bisphosphonates
  • Furosemide = contre-indiqué re: risque de contraction volémique et de diminuer calciurie

Q
  • A 68-year-old man is evaluated for shortness of breath, headache, and swelling of the neck. He first noticed symptoms 3 weeks ago, which have worsened over the past 2 days.

  • On physical examination, temperature is 36.5 °C (97.8 °F), blood pressure is 110/65 mm Hg, pulse rate is 112/min, and respiration rate is 18/min.Oxygen saturation is 92% breathing ambient air. The patient is cachectic but appears comfortable. His face is plethoric, and there are distended cutaneous vessels over the anterior thorax. An enlarged right supraclavicular lymph node is palpable. Pulmonary examination is normal.
  • CT scan of the chest reveals bulky mediastinal adenopathy compressing the superior vena cava, right supraclavicular adenopathy, and a small
    right-sided pleural effusion.

Q

A 77-year-old woman undergoes follow-up evaluation for recently diagnosed stage I adenocarcinoma of the lung. Medical history is notable for very severe COPD that limits her ability to dress unaided. Her medications are an inhaled corticosteroid, salmeterol, tiotropium, roflumilast, and an albuterol inhaler as needed.
* On physical examination, respiration rate is 25/min; other vital signs are normal. Oxygen saturation is 91% breathing 3 L/min of oxygen by nasal cannula. BMI is 20, and she is thin with significant muscle wasting. She has a prolonged expiratory phase of respiration and decreased breath sounds bilaterally.
* Surgical and pulmonary consults concur that the patient is too chronically disabled to safely undergo elective thoracic surgery
