*Q10 GYN: I think this case of irregular menses in an adolescent is probably due to immature
hypothalamic-pituitary-ovarian axis leading to anovulatory cycles. 1st line of treatment here should be
Conjugated estrogen (refer to Uworld Q ID 2390) . any ideas?
- Secondary dysmenorrhea makes me think OCPs/cyclic progestins are best (B) because
its likely due to anovulation

Q18 GYN: This case describes typical scenario of urge incontinence, The answer that goes well i think
is E, UTI causes irritative symptoms (urgency) Being menopausal is a risk factor for UTI. Its definitely
not atonic bladder which will cause overflow incontinence and high residual volume
Answer is B. E is eliminated because Urine Cx was negative

Q20 GYN: I dont know the answer to this one, it describes a case of urethral hypermobility. Its
definitely not H (4th degree laceration; which means a laceration extending from vaginal mucosa till
rectal one !!!! )
H is confirmed to be right answer, which is Urethrocele

Q2 Surg: A. bacterial overgrowth- after tetracycline. Didnt start right after surgery.

Q7 Surg: This patient has increased PCWP, which only occurs in cardiogenic shock (Myocardial
infarction) how could it be A??
TS: True .. http://www.usmleforum.com/files/forum/2007/2/191685.php
TS: So I am thinking that it might be E sepsis fever >38 C, hypotension, cold and clammy
skin, etc. Let me know what you guys think
K: In septic shock, PCWP: Nl or Decreased, whereas PCWP will be increased in cardiogenic
shock (MI: choice C)

Q10 Surg: Failed CST and IVIG in ITP with low platelets, isnt it an indication for splenectomy ???
TS:--> i believe the answer is E as well.

Q11 surg) why is it not ectopic pregnancy ? ..

Q27 surg) I make a case for hiatal hernia because achalasia should have a high LES pressure.

Q37 surg: why is it not A(malignant hyperthermia) because of the generalized muscle rigidity .. fever,
confusion etc..

Q19 Surgery: Adrenal crisis (chronic steroid therapy+stress/surgery), give IV hydrocortisone (D)
Q20 Surgery: PAD_ give aspirin (D)
