Dx of Fibrolamellar HCC
-Labs: normal AFP and elevated neurotensin (vs. FNH)
-Imaging: well-circumscribed w/ central scar. Similar to FNH
Hemodynamic parameters:
- HMHG shock
- Septic shock
- Neurogenic shock
- Cardiogenic shock
Pheo w/up:
Mucinous cystic neoplasm - dx and tx
Tx pelvic fx
**MC source is presacral venous plexus
STSG vs. FTSG
- survival
- cosmesis
- contraction
F5 Leiden Mechanism
Dx and Localize a gastrinoma
Dx:
1. Off PPI: G > 1000 or >200 w/ secretin stimlation
2. Can’t get off PPI: SS Scintigraphy
Localize:
1. Triphasic CT/MRI
2. SS Scintography (Dotatate PET/CT)
3. Endoscopic US
4. Selective intra arterial Ca
5. OR: Intra-Op US, transduodenal palpation, duodenotomy, palpate HOP
Tx pseudocyst/WON
Dx: US or CT
- if can’t r/o cystic neoplasm on imaging must get EUS-FNA
Tx: drain if persistent sxs. Wait 4-6 weeks for the wall to mature
- near stomach/duo, > 6cm: endoscopic cystogastrostomy/duodenostomy
- open or lap cysto-enterostomy (usually jejunostomy if not abutting duo or stomach)
Post trx lymphoproliferative disorder - path, px, and tx
Path- EBV positive B cell proliferation
Px- B sxs (fever, fatigue, weight loss) and abdominal mass (lymphoma)
- may cause lymphoma, abdominal mass (SBO)
- hyper Ca, high LDH
Tx- reduce IS, rituximab-CHOP
Tx of Thrombosed external HMHD
Free water deficit - calculation and use
TBW x [(Na-140)/140]
TBW = weight x .6 (men) or .5 (women)
Used for hyperNa
Order of contents in thoracic outlet
Corrected Ca
[ (4 - albumin) x .8] + Ca
**always falsely low (not high)
**hyperventilation leads to hypoCa
- alkalosis increases binding affinity of Ca to Albumin (No H+ to distract)
Tx of pancreatitis masses
1. WON sterile
2. WON infected
3. Pseudocyst
4. Infected pseudocyst
Indications to tx ICA stenosis and sxs
EBV associated with
Medications for hyperthyroidism - MOA and s/e
Mechanism:
VWF
Fibrin
MRSA tx
***mecA gene encodes for altered penicillin binding protein giving methicillim resistance
Neostigmine
MOA: AChE inhibitor
Use: reversal of non-depol muscle relaxants
Bethesda criteria for thyroid
**1 cm is cutoff to get an FNA
Achalasia - Px, Dx, Path and Tx
Px: dysphagia (to solid and liquid) is MC sx
Dx:
- no peristalsis
- high LES pressure > 15 (vs. scleroderma, low)
- incomplete relaxation
Path: injured ganglion cells
Tx: only motility disorder w/ upfront surgery
- myotomy (6 eso, 2 stomch) is 1st line (avoid Nissen).
- botox or dilation if high risk.
Ab reactions: px, path, tx, ppx
1. Non-hemolytic
2. Hemolytic
