Diagnostic Challenge at BenFrom: Joshua Copel (Joshua.Copel@QuickMail.Yale.edu)Sat Oct 28 12:57:02 1995
Subject: Time: 1:51 PM OFFICE MEMO Diagnostic Challenge at Ben Taub... Date: 10/28/95 I see you planted a PPD. It could be TB or some other atypical mycobacterium. Also could be Hep C prior to antibodies, or Hep B in "window" period. Does the urine have bilirubin? Does she have acholic stools? It does not appear quite right for gallstones, still a RUQ ultrasound for the gallbladdder & pancreas might be helpful. It is also interesting that she has a + RPR @1:2. What is her FTA-ABS? Or, is there a past history of treated syphilis? Given the info as presented I'd have to bet on early hep C. Keep us informed. Josh Copel Joshua.Copel@Yale.edu

The American Medical Association is no longer designating CME hours for AMA Category II CME credit. However, physicians themselves may self designate learning activities as Category II CME credit hours if they feel it is of sufficient educational merit and meets the formal definitions of continuing medical education. OBGYN.net believes these interaction in this forum meets these criteria. For further information see the AMA web site.
