A

Hirschsprung’s Disease.

Hirschsprung’s disease is a congenital disorder of the colon that results from the absence or underdevelopment of the ganglion cells in the myenteric and submucosal plexuses of the distal digestive tract. This results in a functional obstruction of the colon and leads to the symptoms described, such as abdominal distention, excessive gas bloating, passing small amounts of stool, often watery, and excessive crying.

The diagnosis of Hirschsprung’s disease is usually suspected based on clinical features and imaging studies, such as contrast enema and rectal suction biopsies.

104
Q

What is the scaphoid fracture management?

112
Q

Kid with limp and fever, history of URTI. With hip movements normal but tender hip. What is the diagnosis?

A

The clinical presentation of a child with fever, limp, and tenderness over the hip following a recent history of upper respiratory tract infection is suggestive of a transient synovitis.

Transient synovitis is the most common cause of hip pain in children, typically occurring in those aged between 3 to 10 years, and it usually develops after a preceding respiratory or gastrointestinal infection. The child may also have difficulty walking and may have a fever, but the range of motion and hip movement are usually normal.

113
Q

Photo similar to pyogenic granuloma. Man works in a sheep shearing place. What is the diagnosis?

A

Orf is a viral skin infection caused by the parapoxvirus, which is typically seen in animals, such as sheep and goats, and can be transmitted to humans through direct contact with infected animals or contaminated equipment. The condition is characterized by a nodular lesion, often with a central crust, that can appear similar to a pyogenic granuloma.

In individuals who come into close contact with sheep, such as farmers, shearers, or veterinarians, orf can be diagnosed based on clinical presentation, history, and physical examination. Diagnosis can be confirmed by viral culture or polymerase chain reaction (PCR) testing.

114
Q

Picture with ingrown toe nail and infected. First episode. What is the management?

A
  1. Warm water soaks: The affected area should be soaked in warm, soapy water for 15-20 minutes, 3-4 times a day to help reduce swelling and infection.
  2. Antibiotics: If the infection is moderate to severe, an oral antibiotic may be prescribed by a medical professional, which should be taken for the full length of the prescription.
  3. Elevation: The affected foot should be raised whenever possible to help reduce swelling and improve blood flow to the affected area.
  4. Pain management: Over-the-counter pain relievers such as acetaminophen or ibuprofen can be used to help manage pain.
  5. Dressing changes: The affected area should be kept clean and covered with a sterile dressing.
  6. Nail care: Once the infection has healed, the nail should be trimmed straight across and not too short, and narrow shoes should be avoided.
