Q

Malrotation types and SS

A

Midgut volvulus. :

     Life threatening 
     Acute bilious emesis 
     Abd distention
     INTERMITTENT VOLVULUS causes chronic SS (episodic bilious emesis , abd pain , irritability , inconsolability)

Duodenal obs:

       Complete obs Presents acutely 
       Caused by ladds bands (cross duodenum and attach cecum to abd wall)

Q

Mech of bleed in Meckel diverticulum

A

MD contains ectopic gastic tissue that makes HCl.

Acidity causes ulceration and bleed
Hence pallor and anemia.

Stools can range from dark red to maroon depending on colon transit time.

Q

Labs for pancreatic CA

A

⬆️ ALP due to cholestasis
⬆️ direct Bili

(Tumor if pancreatic head compresses on CBD and pancreatic duct leading to cholestasis and ductal dilation)

⬆️CA 19 9

Abd USG : initial imaging

CT scan. : If USG is nondiagnostic

🤪tumor of body and tail do not present with jaundice. Only pain.

17
Q

Pancreatic CA and DM

A

Atypical DM (DM in thin old pt) raises suspicion

Screen newly diagnosed diabetics (<2yrs of dx ) if signs
Gnawing constant epigastric pain
Weight loss

18
Q

Pt with Back pain smoking weight loss and normal spine imaging

A

Tumour of pancreatic tail

19
Q

Mech of back pain in pancreatic tail CA

A

Constant back pain worse at night and while lying supine.

👉🏼Pancreas lies retroperitonealy against post abd wall
👉🏼Innervated by T5-T10
👉🏼Pancreatic tumors irritate visceral afferent fibres
👉🏼Referred back pain to thoracic vertebrae
👉🏼Normal spinal imaging

20
Q

Imaging modality for pancreatic Ca

A

CT scan > 90% sensitive

21
Q

Lifestyle RF of colon Ca

A

Red meat
Tobacco
Alcohol

22
Q

RF for colon CA

A

🗞Inherited Cancer syndromes

 FAP , lynch

🗞Personal family history of adenonatous polyps , Colon CA
🗞ulcerative colitis
🗞 diabetes/obesity
🗞 prior abd /pelvic Radiation
(>4x higher than gen pop)

Diabetes red meat and obesity have small risk. Do not warrant early screen.

23
Q

Screening for colon Ca guideline for pts with HO prior radiation

A

Start early (age 30-40) than average risk (age 45)

24
Q

Protective factors for Colon Ca

A

High fiber diet
Aspirin / NSAID use

25
Q

Zollinger Ellison syndrome CF

A

🎱Multiple and refractory peptic ulcers
🎱Ulcers distal to duodenum
🎱Chronic diarrhea

26
Q

ZES mech

A

Uncontrolled gastrin secretion causes parietal cell hyperplasia causing ⬆️gastric acid.

Gastric acid causes
Inactivation of pancreatic enzymes and injury to mucosal brush border.
Leading to diarrhea and steatorrhea

27
Q

DX of ZES

A

Gastrin >1000
Gastric acid ph<4
Endoscopy shows ulcers
Screen for MEN1

Ionized Ca
Prolactin
CT/MRI & somatostatin receptor scintigraphy for tumor localization

28
Q

MEN 1 tumors

A

Pituitary
Pancreas

32
Q

Screening in lynch syndrome

A

Colonoscopy
Endometrial biopsy (age 30-35 )
Prophylactic hysterectomy with BSO at age 40 ( or family complete )

33
Q

Lethargy or Altered mental status

36
Q

DX of intussuception

A

USG : telescoping
Air / saline enema
Surgery

37
