measles
3c and 1 K
coryza, cough, conjunctivitis,
coryza= inflammation of membrane int he nose
Kooplik spots ( white spots that occur inside cheeks)
p
person with sickle cell disease, history of acute chest syndrome with worsening chest tightness at night and dry cough most likely has
what would you do to diagnose?
asthma
spirometry
vs PE would see persistent chest pain and cough.
4A preterm baby with rapidly increasing head circumference, seizures, lethargy, hypotonia most likely has
Intraventricular hemorrhage
acute chest syndrome
vascoocculustion of pulmonary vasculature
common in SCD
acute onset of pain over the anterior surface of the neck, worsens with swallowing or sticking out tongue + fever and chills is?
infected thyroglossal cyst
acute post streptococcal glomerulonephritis
what lab should you draw for diagnosis?
complement since it lowers complement 3
antigen form IgG ang IgM immune complexes to kidney cells
- will see lower complement 3 , hematuria, and proteinuria
vs IgA nephropathy ( IgA complexes in mesangium)/ Henoch Schonlein purpura
- IgA does not fix complements so will see normal complements
angelman syndrome
happy puppet syndrome
- unusual gait, unprovoked outbursts of laughter, seizures, microcephaly, speech impairment, hyperactivity, fascination with water, poor sleeping
- deletion of chromosome 15q11-13 from maternal side

antibiotic pcp px is indicated for

chronic granulomatous disease
asymmteric red reflex is a sign of ______ ,
can be in someone with a________
diagnostic test?
strabismus, retinoblastoma
dilated funduscopic exam
Ataxia telangiectasia
autosomal recessive disorder that causes defective DNA repair => tumors and immunodeficiency
B and T cell dysfunction
4 A’s:
ATM gene mutation, Ataxia, spider Angioma, IgA deficiency,
ataxia- gait abnormality, movement abnormality, strabismus
bacterial meningitis
few days of fever and progresses to CNS symptoms ( HA, lethargy, irritability)
bacterial vs viral rhinosinusitis
*Bacterial more intense
fever more that 3 days,
symptoms 10 days or more
new or recurrent fever after improvement
Beckman Wiedmann Syndrome

intrinsic renal failure

<15 (“I” ntrinsic) I looks like 1
cause of viral meningitis in unvaccinated child
CSF values
mumps, elevated WBC & protein, low glucose
rubella can’t cause meningitis

Chlamydia trachomatis pneumonia onset
4-12 weeks
typically afebrile and mild
cholesteatoma
keratinizing squamous epithelium grows from tympanic membrane or auditory canal to the middle ear mucosa or mastoid air cells
form of chronic otitis media
- foul smelling discharge from ear, conductive hearing loss
-otoscope findings
1)retraction pocket that appears as a brown irregular man
2) pearly white mass behind tympanic membrane
Xray of mastoid process, CT of temporal bone
Tx: surgery
