(184 cards)
polygonal cells with clear cytoplasm.
clear cell subtype of renal cell carcinoma (RCC).
Individuals may present with the classic triad of hematuria, flank pain, and a palpable abdominal mass.
overflow incontinence
results from one of two mechanisms, detrusor hypoactivity or bladder outlet obstruction.
overflow incontinence caused by detrusor hypoactivity
advanced age, damage to the muscle, decreased estrogen, and nerve damage. (diabetic neuropathy)
bladder outlet obstruction
tumor, uterine fibroids, urethral strictures, or pelvic organ prolapse
pacients with diabetes who presents with urinary incontinecne
they can also present with gastroparesis, postural hypotension, and bladder dysfunction due to an autonomic neuropathy
Ghon complex (
mid to lower lung granulomatous lesion in the presence of ipsilateral hilar lymphadenopathy), indicating likely primary tuberculosis (TB)
primary tuberculosis
mycobacterium tuberculosis, nonspecific syntomps , traveled abroad (africa and asia) , ghon complex on RX ( IPSILATERAL HILAR LYMPHADENOPATHY)
SECONDARY TUBERCULOSIS
REACTIVATION OF BACTERIA, CALCIFICACIONS OF PREVIOUS RX FINDINS FORMING RANKE COMPLEX
multiple granulomatous lung lesions and bilateral hilar lymphadenopathy.
SARCOIDOSIS
ANION GAP FORMULA
Na- HCO3-C. > 12 IS ELEVATED
DIABETIC KETOACIDOSIS
MOST COMMON COMPLICACION OF TYPE 1 DM . SYNTOMPS: NAUSEA,VOMITING, ABDOMINAL PAIN , POLYDIPSIA, POLIURIA, AMS .
CAN CAUSE HYPOKALEMIA AND HYPONATREMIA (U WAVES IN ECG)
anthracycline-induced cardiotoxicity
(doxorubicin, daunorubicin).
shortness of breath, orthopnea (i.e., increased number of pillows), lower extremity edema, S3 heart sound, and hepatojugular reflux (i.e., distension of the right jugular vein).
anthracyclines are typically co-administered with t
dexrazosane
anthracyclines cardiotoxicity
free radical production
inhibits Topoisomeraase II - causing ROS
The two main causes of emphysema
long term cigarrete use- and Alfa 1 antitripsin deficit
emphysema in smokers
imbalance in proteasas and antiproteases, affects the upper lobe causing a centriacinar emphysema
emphysema with A1TPD
Affects all lung lobes, causing a panacinar emphysema
ventricular septal defect
harsh holosystolic murmur heard loudest at the left lower sternal border
atrial septal defect
wide, fixed splitting of the S2 heart sound due to increased right ventricular preload.
Tetrallogy of Fallot
Pulmonary stenosis, VSD, overriding ahorta, right ventricular hypertrofy
-tet spells
-cyanosis
Patent ductus arteriouss
Machine like murmur, continuos loud murmur heard at the left infraclavicular region maximun intesity at S2, left to right shunt , ACYANOTIC,
nephrytic syndrome
Red blood cells in urine, decrease complement
periorbital edema, hypertension, and pedal edema,
On urinalysis, proteinuria (< 3.5 g/day) and RBC casts are classically seen.
Light microscopy displays inflammatory changes and hypercellularity.
postestreptococal glomerulonefritis
type III hypersensitivity
C3 complement levels are typically decreased, while C4 levels are grossly unaffected.
Mesangial proliferation
membranoproliferative glomerulonephritis (MPGN) types I and II.
