physical description/location of familial adenomatous polyposis

(mnemonic: the first 3 here are "inflammatory")
IBD strep bovis bacteremia tobacco large villous adenomas juvenile polyposis syndrome Peutz-Jeghers syndrome |
|
colorectal cancer presentation:
distal colon vs. proximal colon |
obstruction
colicky pain hematochezia dull pain iron deficiency anemia fatigue |

keys re: diagnosis of colorectal cancer
|
iron deficiency anemia in older males
screen patients > 50 --stool occult blood test --colonoscopy "apple core" lesion on barium enema x-ray CEA tumor marker |
|
molecular pathogenesis:
microsatellite instability pathway for CRC |
15%
DNA mismatch repair gene mutations --> sporadic and HNPCC syndrome |
|
molecular pathogenesis:
APC pathway |
85%
APC/beta-catenin (chromosomal instability pathway) loss of APC gene -- v intercellular adhesion -- ^ proliferation K-RAS mutation --unregulated intracellular signal transduction loss of p53 --increased tumorigenesis |
|
carcinoid tumor general info (5)
|
neuro-endocrine cells
50% of small bowel tumors appendix, ileum, rectum most commonly malignant in the small intestine "dense core bodies" on EM |
|
carcinoid syndrome sxs
|
wheezing
right-sided heart murmurs diarrhea flushing |
|
effects of liver cell failure
|
his hand flapping is effeminate, like a "cat fight"
scleral icterus jaundice --gynecomastia --testicular atrophy --liver "flap" = asterixis (course hand tremor) coma ("kinda dead") fetor hepaticus (breath smells like a freshly opened corpse) spider nevi bleeding tendency anemia edema |
|
effects of portal hypertension
|
hemorrhoids
caput medusae esophageal varices --> --hematemesis --melena ^ | peptic ulcer portal hypertensive gastropathy splenomegaly ascites |
|
micronodular regeneration of the liver
|
nodules < 3 mm, uniform size
metabolic insult --alcohol --hemochromatosis --Wilson's disease |
|
macronodular regeneration of the liver
|
nodules > 3 mm, varied size
usually due to significant liver injury leading to hepatic necrosis (e.g. postinfectious or drug-induced hepatitis) ^ risk of hepatocellular carcinoma |
