Q

what are the defects in tetralogy of fallot?

A
  • pulmonary stenosis
  • VSD
  • overriding aorta with deviation of origin to right side
  • concentric RVH
17
Q

what is the cardiac auscultation abnormality in tetralogy of fallot?

A

crescendo-decrescendo with harsh systolic ejection quality (due to RV outflow obstruction)

18
Q

what are the boundaries of level I and II nodes in the breast?

A
  • anterior: clavipectoral fascia
  • posterior: subscapularis
  • superior: axillary vein
  • medial: pectoralis
  • lateral: latissimus
19
Q

what is the cause of hyperacute graft rejection?

A

lymphocytotoxic crossmatch for IgG antibodies against class I MHC receptors, activating the complement cascade (preformed antibodies toward either the HLA or ABO antigens of the donor)

20
Q

how is hyperacute graft rejection avoided?

A

conduct final lymphocytotoxic cross match to detect IgG antibodies against class I MHC receptors in the recipient

21
Q

in rectosigmoid surgery what are the areas in which a ureter injury can be encountered?

A
  • ligation of IMA
  • near cul de sac where ureter crosses under vas at sacral promontory
  • during division of lateral pedicles of rectum
  • during reperitonealization when ureter may be included in ligatures
22
Q

where is mesh placed in a rives-stoppa-wantz repair?

A

anterior to posterior sheath in the retrorectus position (sublay)

23
Q
  • what are the types of choledochal cysts (and associated treatments)?
A
  • type I: dilation in extrahepatic and/or intrahepatic bile ducts (RYGB)
  • type II: isolated diverticulum protruding from the CBD (simple resection)
  • type III: intraduodenal or intrapancreatic dilations of the distal CBD (sphincterotomy vs cyst marsupialization via ERCP vs transduodenal marsupialization)
  • type IV: dilation in extrahepatic and/or intrahepatic bile ducts (RYGB)
24
Q

how is the GDA controlled via suture when achieving hemostasis of a recurrent bleeding gastric ulcer?

A

superiorly and inferiorly followed by ligation of the medial transverse pancreatic branches with a U stitch

25
Q

silver nitrate leads to what electrolyte abnormality?

A

hyponatremia via extravasation

26
Q

what is the side effect of mafenide acetate?

A

metabolic acidosis via inhibition of carbonic anhydrase
