Raymond Yii Shi Liang 1. Lecturers who took u: Prof. C.K Liam (silent), Prof Mary (Caucasianexternal,the main examiner) & Prof Aili (silent) 2. Specialty: Gynaecology 3. Chief complaint: Sundravalli, a 49-year-old Indian lady, para 5, presented with menorrhagia for 2 months.

4. Brief history - Menorrhagia for 2 months since Oct 2010. - flooding, blood clots of multiple size with the largest one 20 cent-sized, daily 5-6 pampers fully soaked with blood. - It was associated with severe persistent abdominal pain localized at lower abdomen extending to both right and left iliac fossa. There was also low back pain. Other associated symptoms such as abdominal distension and pressure sx (urinary freq and tenesmus) were absent. No history suggestive of PCOS. - sought treatment in HTAR and was told that US showed fibroid. 5. PE finding - Conjunctival pallor, left iliac fossa tenderness, mass in left iliac fossa (I couldn't feel it, but the examiner could feel it - what a disastrous thing happening to me!) - I also told that there were scleral jaundice and hepatomegaly. But Prof CK Liam confirmed that there was none. So, be careful of the lighting condition when u're checking for scleral jaundice. - Pelvic exam was not performed becoz the patient refused. The examiner asked me what would I look for in pelvic exam: Speculum exam: vaginal bleeding, prolapsed endocervical polyps and cervical carcinoma Bimanual vaginal exam: Size, site, consistency, tenderness and mobility of uterine fibroid. 6. Diagnosis - The examiner never asked me about this. Because the history itself had already revealed the diagnosis. - My differential diagnoses: cervical CA, PCOS, DUB, endometrial CA, adenomyosis and endocervical polyps. 7. Questions asked by lecturer - Can u plz tell how would u investigate for this lady and reason for each test? Basic investigation: FBC - anemia, microcytic hypochromic due to bleeding RP & LFT - baseline for pre-op Coagulation profile - ensure that the bleeding is not due to coagulopathy Pap smear test - for cervical CA ( The examiner then asked: ' Why would u want to repeat this again since this had been done on Feb this year?' 'How long is the interval for the next smear?' If first two consecutive results are negative, then every three years. Imaging: Transabdominal US scan - fibroid (size and site) - endometrial thickness >4mm for endometrial hyperplasia and CA Examiner asked: 'What is the endometrial thickness of a pre-menopausal woman? I dunno. 'Is endometrial thickness of >4mm common in premenopausal woman? I answer no, but the answer is yes. ' Is endometrial hyperplasia common in pre-menopausal woman?' I answered no. Then she asked further: 'In wat situation the endometrial hyperplasia is commonly seen in pre-menopausal woman?' PCOS. Biopsy: Endometrial sampling by hysteroscopy/pipelle - to assess the histology of endometrium for hyperplasia or CA.

- 'In one word, describe how would u manage this patient?' Mx depends on the age, parity and desire for future childbearing. Since this lady had completed her family, hysterectomy is the option. - 'If the woman wants her uterus, what alternative would u opt for?' Myomectomy, but it's a/w risk of bleeding. - 'I don't want this answer, any other?' HIFU - High Intensity Focus Sonography. All the best to those who are going to have their long case on Tues and Wed. May all of us pass the exam! about a week ago Report

MBBS(Malaya) 06/11 Final Exam Data Store From : Suriaraj Lecturers: Prof Nor Azmi, Prof KL Goh and Prof Azad..... =) Specialty: Obstetrics PC: Anaemia in pregnancy

HOPI: 36 year lady G9P7+1(miscarriage) and one neonatal death currently at 34 weeks period of amenorrhea. pregnancy unplanned but wanted. Did conformation of pregnancy at 15 weeks POA at private clinic by UPT and ultrasound scan.Given obimin tablets bcoz of anaemia history in previous pregnancies.. (All 8 pregnancy got aneamia with 4th pregnancy requring pre delivery blood transfusions) booking at ummc at 27 weeks POA.. found Hb to be 9.1.. prescribed ferrous fumarate (1 tab OD), obimin (1 tab OD) and calcium carbonate.. at 31 weeks POA second visit to UMMC found Hb to be 8.4 and thus ferrous fumarate dose increased to 2 tabs daily. past obs hx she had history af large babies ranging from 3.8kg to 4.48kg and hx of fetal shoulder dystocia during 4th pregnancy. No GDm hx in any pregnancy.. at 30 weeks POA onwards she started developing symptoms of anemia such as SOB, reduced effort tolerance, lethargy and occasional palpitation.. PE: all normal, baby cephalic presentation in longitudinal lie.. Got palmar crease pallor and conjunctival pallor.. Questions: no question on history.. after history i was brought to the patient and Prof Azmi told me "examine this patient".. so, i started from the peripheral examinaton eliciting the palmar crease pallor and conjunctival pallor. (make sure compare your palm with patient's to show palmar pallor). Then i proceded with abdominal palpation, presented the fetal presentation, lie and the head palpable per abdomen. Prf ask me wht is the estimated weight of fetus (i said 2.5-3, he said ok), and he ask wheter clinically liquor volume adequate or not (i said adequate).. Back in the room, profAzmi ask me when will u transfuse patient.. I said if Hb less than 8. Prof KL goh ask me wht other criteria for transfusion (ans: clinical feature of severe anaemia..) Prof Azmi asked me if i see this patient first time at antenatal clinic, how would i manage this patient?? I said start from blood ix to look for cause of anaemia and the i elaborated from there.. I said i would prescribe oral iron supplements.. he ask wht is the possible cause of the anaemia in this pt?? I said patient is a grand multipara with no spacing between pregnancy, so the iron stores are depleted.. Key word is iron store depletion.. (prof KL goh wanted to hear that) He then asked me if patient comes and tell u that her friend claims that parenteral iron is better, hw would u advice patient?? - i said efficacy of both is same but side effect profile differ and compliance is better with parenteral.. he ask me if this patient is going into labour, what are the problems u anticipate?? I said main concern is the anaemia as severe anaemia during delivery can cause a cardiovascular collapse and i said that there is possibility of shoulder dystocia coz got hx of large babies..

He ask me wht else possible complication?? -i said PPH coz she is a grand multipara thus got risk of uterine atony.. he then ask me management of PPH..

Faris Yusri emmm..... for my part, i got the same patient as maira.. same questions were asked. Mechanism of injury bla2.. the different is i diagnosed it as ACL tear. i said this because for me, it seems like there is no posterior sagging + the patient said, when he accidentally noticed knee instability, he was able to push it forward. +ve anterior drawers test +ve lachman test on the left. Rigid on the right. however, i still have doubt since patient is not active in sport, doesnt play football or futsal (ACL most likely a sport injury) & the causes for instability is MVA (i'm not sure if MVA can cause ACL as well) other questions are really 100% the same. about a week ago Report

Talk about scar, jaundice, anaemia, describe the mass at the neck. BMI, nutrition, 6. Diagnosis Tertiary HyperPTH due to a long standing CKD with a background history of secondary Hypertension. 7. Questions asked by lecturer Surgical question: If I am performing a parathyroid surgery, how do I do a simple test to differentiate the gland from a fat lump? Remember OT has water. I was like fill the water in a beaker and place the removed specimen. Suppose if it floats, it is fat lump. Why? Because of its density. Phew, Form 4 Physics saved me. Then the anatomy, size of gland. Hypocalcaemia. What clinical test. Chvostek and Trosseau. How do you do it? I could answer until show me how the hand would finally lie with Trosseau. I did like a claw hand because I thought it was carpo-pedal spasm. They were smiling and Prof Rokiah asked whether am I sure. I sheepishly smiled and said no. Apparently it is like http://www.kuwait-md.org/?q=node%2F923 . Haih. Very brief management of the CKD. Prognosis, how would you counsel the patient. I can't remember much la, they did ask few questions here and there. But I was glad when it finished. My final question was how a patient with CKD would get shortness of breath. I told the anaemia in CKD pathophysiology.
