标准答案:

1. DCIS: wide local excision to negative margins, followed by XRT to the ipsilateral breas
t

2. The "Incidental Ovarian Mass"
First, always perform the operation that you went there to perform
Remember, you can always come back
Then, describe fully what you see
i.e. peritoneal studding, omental caking...
never do a wedge biopsy of the mass or ovary
never do a TAH-BSO, at the time of initial discovery
Antibiotics, antibiotics, antibiotics....

3. When you find a tubo-ovarian abscess, you are likely exploring for suspected appendici
tis; perform the appendectomy and describe the relevant findings. Unless the ovary is nec
rotic or gangrenous, do not proceed with resection (especially in the pre-menopausal fem
ale). If the abscess progresses or begins to lead to septic complications, you can always g
o back and resect.

4. 2 effects of IABP:
a. Increases coronary blood flow
b. decreases afterload

5. IABP is contraindicated in:
a. Aortic regurgitation
b. Lower limb ischemia

6. Glucagonoma

7. Carcinoid Diagnosis: Check Urinary 5-HIAA level**

8. Critical aortic stenosis:
Area < 1 cm&sup2;
P > 50 mmHg

9. Critical mitral stenosis:
Area < 1.5 cm&sup2;
P > 15 mmHg

10. Renal Cell CA

11. Resection; intracaval spread does not preclude a full and complete resection, i.e. a r
adical nephrectomy without previous biosy.

12. A testicular mass is cancer till proven otherwise and should be treated with an inguina
l orchiectomy. Do not violate the median raphe or perform a scrotal biopsy.

13. Serum markers in testicular cancer:
AFP
B-HCG
LDH

14. BIRADS Classification:
"0" - inadequate mammogram
"I" - normal mammogram
"II" - radiographic abnormality present, likely benign
"III" - undetermined lesion, low suspicion for carcinoma
"IV" - suspicious lesion present
"V" - malignancy strongly suspected
(i.e. a solid mass with calcifications)

15. FNA

16. Aggressive suctioning ― consider endotracheal intubation and formal bronchoscopy
 

17. Ductogram followed by complete ductal excision

18. Lactating adenoma

19. Right Thoracoctomy ― with ligation of the duct just above the diaphragm (VATS if avail
able)

20. Papilloma

21. Chromosome 5q

22. Amsterdam Criteria: the Lynch Syndromes, 3 relatives, in 2 or more generations, where
 at least 1 is a first-degree relative

23. Achalasia

24. Colonic neoplasia

25. Diverticulosis

26. A-V Malformations

C1 - Regional Node Metastasis
C2 - Node Involvement at the Point of Vessel Ligation

31. Stage II or Stage III Esophageal CA

32. Duodenum

33. Alcoholic cirrhosis

34. Budd-Chiari Syndrome: hepatic vein thrombosis leading to post-sinusoidal portal hy
pertension

35. Beta-blockade is the only proven method to prevent a FIRST bleed

36. Medical management:
fluid & salt restriction
spironolactone
surgery carries a minimal role in the direct treatment of ascites

37. I Ablation, followed by supplemental replacement

38. Right hemicolectomy with ileocolic anastamosis, and remember to take the regional no
des.

39. Risk Factors ― Papillary CA:
Childhood exposure to Radiation
Positive family history

40. Follicular cancer does not spread through the lymphatics; it spreads hematogenously
 to bone and lung

41. Calcitonin

42. The external carotid artery

43. Resect the diverticulum

44. Diarrhea

45. Erythema nodosum, erythema multiforme, & pyoderma gangrensum (just to name a few

标准答案:

1 EDH ― there is less underlying parenchymal injury than seen in SDH

2 When the depression is greater than 5 mm (some say 1 cm, or more than one full-thickness wid
th) ― this decreases the risk of seizures

3 Actinomycosis ― remember, this is a bacterial infection (treat with high-dose PCN)

4 Molluscum contagiosum

5 2 spirochetes:
Borrelia (Lyme disease, relapsing fever) ― Tx with ceftriaxoneTreponema (Syphilis) ―
 Tx with PCN

6 Toxoplasmosis

7 No, banding only works for esophageal varices. With gastric varices, and true portal hyp
ertension, you will likely require TIPS

8 Hyperthyroidism due to the formation of an autoimmune antibody directed against the TSH
 receptor; treatment of choice is radioactive ablation (I 131)

9 Duodenal atresia: side-to-side duodenoduodenostomy with a decompressive g-tube

10 Lower GI ― look for the cecum in the LUQ

11 Coarctation of the aorta; you keep the PDA open by administering prostaglandin

12 Indomethacin

13 Positive pressure increases CVP

14 Below the renal veins (if there is thrombosis of the filter, you do no want to occlude the r
enals)

15 L2

16 Ranson's Criteria of severity:

17 Chromosome # 10

18 Stimulates Anti-thrombin III

19 A negative d-dimer effectively rules-out a pulmonary embolus

20 75 (40)

21 Incomplete vagotomy, incomplete antrectomy, Z-E Syndrome

22 Intracompartmental pressures > 30 mmHg (indication for urgent fasciotomy)

23 Zone I: from the clavicles to cricoidZone II: from cricoid to the mandibular angleZone I
II: from the mandibular angle to the base of the skull

24 3 feet

25 A, B ― found on all nucleated cells

26 Milroy's: a chronic hereditary lymphedema with onset at or near birth (in a few patients
 it does not develop until after the age of 35, i.e. 'lymphedema tarda'). It is caused by a de
velopmental abnormality of the lymphatics

27 The CD3 receptor

28 kidneys ― 48 hrs; pancreas ― 24 hrs; liver ― 12 hrs; heart, lung, small bowel ― 8 hrs

29 There are several ways to repair an accidental transection; the one I prefer is an interr
upted, primary repair using 5-0 dacron sutures over a 6fr. Double-J silastic stent. The st
ent is removed via cytsocopy 6 weeks after the repair. I always leave a drain behind (but som
e do not).

30 Gancyclovir

31 Involvement of Cooper's Ligaments (not lymphatic invasion or "skin edema")

32 The breast bud is a normal, developmental structure seen at the onset of puberty. It shou
ld never be biopsied !

33 A Phyllodes tumor is an uncommon stromal lesion consisting of both epithelial and mesen
chymal cells. The far majority (> 90 %) are completely benign and related to fibroadeno
ma. Treatment is via wide local excision to negative margins and there is no role for axilla
ry dissection or adjuvant therapy.

34 Cushing's Syndrome is the state of hypercortisolism. Unfortunately, the term has been
 used carelessly in the past which has led to confusion regarding the underlying disease p
rocess. Primary Hypercortisolism (the real, "Cushing's syndrome", i.e. related to a pri
mary disease within the adrenal gland), is seen with an adrenal tumor.
Cushing's Disease is due to a central process (usually a pituitary tumor) which release an
 excess of ACTH and thus produces a Secondary Hypercortisolism.***

35 Paget's disease of the breast is Invasive Ductal Carcinoma involving the nipple-areol
a complex; a palpable mass may or may not be present. It is treated by Modified Radical Maste
ctomy.

36 Stage I Breast Cancer: T1, No, Mo (a T1 lesion is less than 2 cm in total diameter). Treat wi
th Breast-conserving therapy !

37 Neostigmine 2 mg IV over 5 minutes with EKG monitoring pt must not have peritoneal signs o
r a true volvulusover 90 % effective dose may be repeated in 3 hrs. if necessarymay cause sym
ptomatic bradycardia in 20 % of pts. (treated with Atropine)

38 Treatment of a Type IV Gastric Ulcer: Excision. (maintaining the GE Junction is preferr
ed if anatomically possible)

39 Intestinal Metaplasia

40 Treatment of a Stage II Breast CA: Breast-conserving therapy (i.e. lumpectomy, XRT, &a
mp; sentinel-node biopsy). At present, little role of MRM.

41 Treatment of Inflammatory Breast CA: Biopsy the lesion. Rule out metastases with mammo
graphy, bone scans and a CT scan of the chest, abdomen, brain (and axilla ?). Begin neoadjuv
ant therapy with FAC/CAFV/CMF. After an initial course (4 ― 6 weeks), complete the mastec
tomy and axillary dissection followed by radiation therapy and adjuvant chemotherapy. I
f no response is obtained with chemotherapy initially, then proceed with radiation thera
py. Proceed with mastectomy if possible after radiation therapy and follow with adjuvant
 chemotherapy. Overall prognosis is poor with a median survival of 31 months

42 Early dumping: Hyperosmolar Load

43 Late dumping: Inappropriate Insulin Response

44 The Nigro Protocol ― given for all biopsy-proven anal carcinoma (except melanoma)
5-FU, 1000 mg IV qd for the first 3 days of therapy200 rads external beam radiation, each day
 M ― F for 5 weeksLast 3 days of treatment, 5-FU, 1000 mg IV qdRe-examine the pt in 2 weeksIf n
o visible tumor remaining, do a biopsy of the areaIf biopsy is negative, treatment is finis
hed and pt undergoes close follow-upIf biopsy is positive, Give 1000 Rads of radiation for
 a total of 6,000 then re-biopsyIf gross tumor remains after the 5000 Rads, then APRIf ther
e is clinically-positive nodes, then perform a superficial groin dissection (you should
 never irradiate a groin)

45 Wide local excision

46 Botox injection

47 RQ = CO2 Produced / O2 Consumed

48 When the melanoma is "Intermediate Thickness", 1 ― 4 mm

49 Anterior face Melanoma: Wide local excision with Superficial Parotidectomy and Modif
ied Radical Neck Dissection

50 Wide Local Excision (may require plastic reconstruction after excision)
