Posterior urethral valve These are symmetrical folds of urothelium extending distally from prostatic urethra to external urinary sphincter. It most commonly lies just distal to the verumontanum or at the verumontanum* It occurs only in males. It behaves as flap valves so, although urine does not flow normally a urethral catheter can be passed without difficulty. Sometimes, the valves are incomplete and the patient remains without symptoms until adolescence or adulthood. Approximately 30% of patients experience end stage renal disease Vesicoureteral reflux occurs in 50% of patients. Diagnosis is made by (a) voiding cystourethrogram* & (b) endoscopy Both of these investigations clearly depict the site of obstruction. The diagnosis can be established prenatally by ultrasound.* Management First a small polyethylene feeding tube is inseed in the bladder and left for several days. Then fuher management is done according to serum creatinine level. (a) with normal serum creatinine --> transurethral ablation of the valve leaflets. * (b) With increased serum creatinine and the worsening of condition --> vesicostomy to bypass the obstruction and when normal creatinine levels are achieved, transurethral ablation is done. | Surgery | {

Inflammation & Repair | e2436b78-1d6e-450c-99d8-cb25a90fb71a | Serous inflammation is the mildest form of acute inflammation. A blister is a good example of serous inflammation. It is associated primarily with exudation of fluid into the sub-corneal or subepidermal space. Because the injury is mild, the fluid is relatively protein-poor. A protein-rich exudate results in fibrin accumulation. Granulomatous inflammation is characterized by collections of transformed macrophages called epithelioid cells. Acute inflammatory cells, mainly neutrophils, exuded into a body cavity or space form a purulent (suppurative) exudate, typically associated with liquefactive necrosis. Loss of the epithelium leads to ulceration. | Pathology | {

Basic Concepts | 75dc4430-a811-4b5c-8867-044d88b576c7 | Hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (HLH) is a reactive condition marked by cytopenias and signs and symptoms of systemic inflammation related to macrophage activation. For this reason, it is also sometimes referred to as macrophage activation syndrome. Some forms are familial and may appear early in life, even in infants, while other forms are sporadic and may affect people of any age. The common feature of all forms of HLH is systemic activation of macrophages and CD8+ cytotoxic T cells. Primary HLH (Mendelian inherited conditions leading to HLH) Defects in the cytolytic function of cytotoxic T cells and/or NK cells Defects in inflammasome regulation Secondary HLH (apparently non-Mendelian HLH) Infections (mainly viruses, such as EBV, HIV, and CMV, but also bacteria, parasites, and fungi) Malignancies (mainly malignant lymphoma) Macrophage activation syndrome in autoinflammatory or autoimmune disorders Other causes (organ or stem cell transplantation; metabolic,traumatic, iatrogenic causes; and, rarely, pregnancy) | Pathology | {

Features of chronic lymphoedema of limb
Initially, the lymphoedema is soft and pits on the pressure but with time the skin becomes thickened & non-pitting due to fibrosis, dermal thickening and hyperkeratosis.
Frequent episodes of lymphangitis and cellulitis may occur. this is believed to be due to loss of local immune defence mechanism.
Chronic eczema, a fungal infection of the skin (dermatophytosis) and nails (onychomycosis), fissuring, verrucae and papillae (warts) are frequently seen in advanced disease.
Rarely malignancy (lymphangiosarcoma or angiosarcoma) may occur in chronic lymphoedema. This neoplastic transformation of blood vessels and lymphatics is called Stewart - Treves syndrome. | Surgery | {

General anaesthesia | a615b364-c40d-480b-9d0d-897c1d26b499 | Isoflurane is metabolized to trifluoroacetic acid. Although serum fluoride fluid levels may rise, nephrotoxicity is extremely unlikely, even in the presence of enzyme inducers. Prolonged sedation (>24 h at 0.1-0.6% isoflurane) of critically ill patients has resulted in elevated plasma fluoride levels (15-50 mmol/L) without evidence of kidney impairment. Similarly, up to 20 MAC-hours of isoflurane may lead to fluoride levels exceeding 50 mmol/L without detectable postoperative kidney dysfunction. Its limited oxidative metabolism also minimizes any possible risk of significant hepatic dysfunction. Total hepatic blood flow (hepatic aery and poal vein flow) may be reduced during isoflurane anesthesia. Hepatic oxygen supply is better-maintained with isoflurane than with halothane, however, because hepatic aery perfusion is preserved. Liver function tests are usually not affected. The major effect of acute inhalation of chloroform is central nervous system depression. At concentrations from 1,500-30,000 ppm, chloroform exposure can induce anesthesia; at concentrations exceeding 40,000 ppm, it can be fatal. Chronic inhalation of chloroform in humans results in hepatotoxicity and central nervous symptoms such as depression and irritability. Meanwhile, chronic oral exposure to chloroform in humans results in effects on the blood, livers, and kidneys.

These lesions are richly vascular and typically are ulcerated, which gives them a red to purple color. In some cases, growth can be rapid and raise fear of a malignant neoplasm. However, histologic examination demonstrates a dense proliferation of immature vessels similar to that seen in granulation tissue. Pyogenic granulomas can regress, mature into dense fibrous masses, or develop into a peripheral ossifying fibroma. Complete surgical excision is definitive treatment.

Most common subtype of embryonal rhabdomyosarcoma is sarcoma botyroides
Seen in infants and children less than 5 years of age.
"This rare tumor develops almost exclusively in girls younger than 5 years, although vaginal and cervical sarcoma botryoides have been reported in females aged 15 to 20 years." - William Gynae 1st /ed p 683
"Sarcoma botryoides are usually seen in patients who are younger than 5 years of age." - COGDT 10th ed p 831
In infants and children, sarcoma botyroides is usually found in vagina, in reproductive age females rhabdomyosarcoma is seen within the cervix and after menopause within the uterus.
The gross appearance of the tumor resembles pinkish bunch of grapes —it can be in the form of multiple polyp like structures or can be a solitary growth with pedunculated appearance.
Histologically-its characteristic finding is "rhabdomyoblast."
Clinical features
The presenting features are:
Blood stained vaginal discharge
Anaemia and cachexia
Management
Chemotherapy — vincristine actinomycin D and cyclophasphamide followed by conservative surgery to excise residual tumor is the treatment of choice. Newer studies have revealed that primary chemotherapy without surgery is adequate for most patients. | Gynaecology & Obstetrics | {

The test is based on the fact that erythrocytes with a large propoion of hemoglobin S sickle in solutions of low oxygen content. Metabisulfite is a reducing substance that enhances the process of deoxygenation. The osmotic fragility test is a diagnostic test for hereditary spherocytosis. Spherocytes lyse at a higher concentration of salt than do normal cells, thus causing an increased osmotic fragility. The direct antiglobulin test (DAT), or Coombs' test, is used to differentiate autoimmune hemolytic anemia (AIHA) due to the presence of anti-red cell antibodies from other forms of hemolytic anemia. In this test, antibodies to human immunoglobulin cause the agglutination (clotting) of red cells if these anti-red cell antibodies are present on the surface of the red cells. In patients with paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria, the erythrocytes are excessively sensitive to complement-mediated lysis in low ionic environments (the basis for the sucrose hemolysis test) or in acidotic conditions, such as sleep, exercise, or the Ham's acid hemolysis test. The Schilling test, which measures intestinal absorption of vitamin B12 with and without intrinsic factor, is used to diagnose decreased vitamin B12 caused by pernicious anemia, which is characterized by a lack of intrinsic factor.

Endocrinology | deb53386-ca4b-48e0-b6de-489537df647b | <p>Improved medical management of chronic kidney disease now allows many patients to survive for decades and hence time enough to develop features of renal osteodystrophy, which must be controlled to avoid additional morbidity. Impaired production of 1,25(OH) 2 D is now thought to be the principal factor that causes calcium deficiency, secondary hyperparathyroidism, and bone disease; hyperphosphatemia typically occurs only in the later stages of CKD. Low levels of 1,25(OH) 2 D due to increased FGF23 production in bone are critical in the development of hypocalcemia. The uremic state also causes impairment of intestinal absorption by mechanisms other than defects in vitamin D metabolism. Nonetheless, treatment with supraphysiologic amounts of vitamin D or calcitriol corrects the impaired calcium absorption. Since increased FGF23 levels are seen even in early stages of renal failure in some patients, and have been repoed to correlate with increased moality, there is current interest in methods (lowering phosphate absorption) to lower FGF23 levels and concern as to whether vitamin D supplementation (known physiologically to increase FGF23) increases FGF23 in CKD. Hyperphosphatemia in renal failure lowers blood calcium levels by several mechanisms, including extraosseous deposition of calcium and phosphate, impairment of the bone-resorbing action of PTH, and reduction in 1,25(OH) 2 D production by remaining renal tissue(harrison 18 pg 3116)</p> | Medicine | {
