Endocrinology Review Questions - CRASH! Medical Review Series

Question 8: @ 28:10 I believe hydrochlorthiazide may cause hypercalcemia. So you do not use it to treat hypercalcemic pts. Rather use it for hypercalciuric patients.

Love your lectures! Preparing for my 3rd PA Board exam and these videos have been an excellent review for me. Thank you.

Question 15. Sheehan's syndrome with history of normal deliveries? I expected a history of PPH at some time in previous pregnancy. Also, does not say 6 months after delivery in question.

[@ben005dr]

And all two previous pregnancies also she had similar breast feeding issues🤔,

Really great lectures, thank you Dr. Bolin!

For Question 11, seeing that the patient is on hydrochlorothiazide and has 2 high fasting glucose values, would the first step be to switch out the thiazide and use something else like an ACEi to treat her hypertension instead of diagnosing her with T2 DM? *Edit: I'm wondering if her high BGL is actually caused by the thiazide.

Thank you for the great production!

For Question 12, for patients with a Hba1c>9, I'm pretty sure you **ADD insulin therapy to his current regiment, not switch to insulin. He should still be on his oral meds.

Hello Dr I have a question on question 4 why is the diagnosis hyperplasia in question 3 you suggested pheochromocytoma so when you chose Men 2 why did you say it was hyperplasia and not stick with pheochromocytoma. Did you misspeak or did I miss something? Thank you very much

[@ayenewsewnet7927]

ebonydragonfly ....I agree on ur questions too

[@Zain.Basi1]

She has both.. At first we knew that the patient has pheochromocytoma (severe hypertension) ..and after the test revealed elevated calcium, it suggests hyperparathyroidism as in hyperplasia .. so what causes both pheochromocytoma and PT hyperplasia? It’s MEN2A

Thank you for your videos!

wrong - ABIM Uworld - for thyroid nodules - unless otherwise stated - if TSH normal - next step is RAIU to go between hot or cold nodules -- if hot nodule, no need for FNA -- if cold, yes def. do FNA -- might wanna update to 2021 guidelines.

Question 7 : Why is the best initial a low dose dexamethasone suppression test? Couldn't it equally be a serum cortisol? I have failed to find any source that specifically states that one is better than the other initially. Great video, thanks!

[@Hiwottt]

No, I think with out the suppression test, we can't surely say cortisol is elevated because any stress can raise the level of cortisol ( serum cortisol is non specific). So we have to use the suppression test that would normally suppress the production of cortisol, and if still cortisol level is elevated we can say it's Cushing syndrome .

[@eugeniosramos]

The other option would be a sample of the salivary cortisol at 23h00. Serum cortisol is a 2nd line test, and the pt would have to have it drawn at 23h00-00h00.

[@FirasHilal-ke7gh]

Hi... Thx for your hard work. I have a question Number 2 Why did we choose FNA I know ultrasound is to be done first and the other choices are basically wrong. But in a way the FNA is also wrong. Should I assume that the ultrasound is done. If so reassurance is also correct because its small and have no malignant features. Can you explain more in details please 🙏 Thx. Again

[@aungmin5526]

Can an uncomplicated pregnancy cause Shehan's syndrome. PPH is a complication of pregnancy.
