Case 1

productive cough not responding to antibiotics given recently. He

has no fever or sick contacts. His medical history is significant for

He continues to have bulky, foul-smel ing stools. No diarrhea is

present. He has several relatives with chronic lung and "stomach"

examination reveals an il appearing, slender male in moderate

Case 2

--- Content provided by FirstRanker.com ---


? An 8-year-old boy is brought to his pediatrician by his

mother because she was concerned that he was having

--- Content provided by​ FirstRanker.com ---

language-speech problems, was hyperactive, and was told

by teachers that he may have mental retardation. The

mother reports a strong family history of mental

--- Content provided by⁠ FirstRanker.com ---


retardation in males. The boy on exam is found to have a

large jaw, prominent ears, and enlarged testes

--- Content provided by FirstRanker.com ---

(macroorchidism). The mother was told her family had a

genetic problem causing the mental retardation. The

patient underwent a series of blood tests and was

--- Content provided by‌ FirstRanker.com ---


scheduled to see a genetic counselor, who expressed that

the etiology of the genetic defect was likely transmitted

--- Content provided by​ FirstRanker.com ---

from his mother. The genetic counselor states that his

mother likely has a silent mutation.

Case 3

? A 15-year-old African-American female presents to the emergency

room with complaints of bilateral thigh and hip pain. The pain has

--- Content provided by FirstRanker.com ---


been present for 1 day and is steadily increasing in severity.

Acetaminophen and ibuprofen have not relieved her symptoms.

--- Content provided by‍ FirstRanker.com ---

She denies any recent trauma or excessive exercise. She does report

feeling fatigued and has been having burning with urination along

with urinating frequently. She reports having similar pain episodes

--- Content provided by‌ FirstRanker.com ---


in the past, sometimes requiring hospitalization. On examination,

she is afebrile (without fever) and in no acute distress. No one in

--- Content provided by‌ FirstRanker.com ---

her family has similar episodes. Her conjunctiva and mucosal

membranes are slightly pale in coloration. She has nonspecific

bilateral anterior thigh pain with no abnormalities appreciated. The

--- Content provided by FirstRanker.com ---


remainder of her examination is completely normal. Her white

blood cel count is elevated at 17,000/mm3, and her hemoglobin

--- Content provided by FirstRanker.com ---

(Hb) level is decreased at 7.1 g/dL. The urinalysis demonstrated an

abnormal number of numerous bacteria.

? This 15-year-old female's description of her pain is typical of a sickle cell

pain crisis.

? infection is a trigger, most commonly pneumonia or a urinary tract

--- Content provided by‍ FirstRanker.com ---


infection. This case is consistent with a urinary tract infection, indicated by

her symptoms of urinary frequency, and burning with urination (dysuria).

--- Content provided by​ FirstRanker.com ---

? Her white blood cell count is elevated in response to the infection.

? The low hemoglobin level is consistent with sickle cell anemia.

? Since she is homozygous (both genes coding for sickle hemoglobin), both

--- Content provided by​ FirstRanker.com ---


her parents have sickle cell trait (heterozygous) and thus do not have

symptoms.

--- Content provided by​ FirstRanker.com ---

? The diagnosis can be established with hemoglobin electrophoresis.

? Treatment includes searching for an underlying cause of crisis (infection,

hypoxia, fever, excessive exercise, and extreme changes in temperature),

--- Content provided by‌ FirstRanker.com ---


administration of oxygen, intravenous fluids for hydration, pain

management, and consideration of a blood transfusion.

Fragile X syndrome

? Molecular basis of disease:

Mutation resulting in an increased number of

CGG repeats on the X chromosome. When the

number of repeats reaches a critical size, it can be

methylated and inactivated resulting in the

disorder. Individuals who carry 50 to 199 repeats

--- Content provided by‍ FirstRanker.com ---


are phenotypical y normal and carry a

premutation. If repeats exceed 200, the patient

--- Content provided by FirstRanker.com ---

has a full mutation; and if methylation occurs, he

or she wil be affected.

Case 4

weeks ago, and presents to clinic with multiple complaints. He states that

recently he has had worsening joint pain and "arthritis" in multiple joints

that seems to move to different spots. Patient also complains of some

numbness in his feet bilaterally.

? The patient denies any medical problems and he had a normal annual

physical prior to hunting trip. On further questioning, he remembered

having a rash on his body and the lesions were circular and appeared to be

--- Content provided by⁠ FirstRanker.com ---

with muscle ache (myalgias), joint ache (arthralgias), stiff neck, and severe

headache. He also remembered that many of his hunting friends had

--- Content provided by‌ FirstRanker.com ---


experienced flea and tick bites and is quite sure he was bitten as well. The

physical exam is essentially normal except some joint tenderness of left
