[@Synnerization]

I doubt any infectious disease specialist wouldn't immediately recognize advanced rabies. The symptoms are very distinctive.

[@aboxofcheese4788]

I'm not a specialist and I instantly recognized it the moment she displayed photo-phobia and hydrophobia.

[@Synnerization]

If you don't want to sleep again there is a video on KZbin documenting the progression of an Iranian with rabies. Not pretty to watch.

[@rambard5599]

They're not infectious disease specialists though. Foreman is a neurologist, Chase is a surgeon and intensivist (specialices in intensive care), and Cameron is an immunologist. The only infectious disease specialist in the team is House himself (which makes sense, since they work in the diagnostics department and not the infectious disease department). Besides, if it's so uncommon that you pretty much don't see a single case of rabies in your whole career, even if the symptoms are obvious, rabies wouldn't be the first thing to pop into your mind, unless the patient's history would hint to it being a possibility.

[@Synnerization]

Aerophobia, hydrophobia, delirium, and tremors. Once you tried to give the patient fluids and they started immediately choking you might take that as a sign. Besides it's only uncommon in first world countries. There are thousands of global cases annually and anyone who has ever been anywhere near third world medicine would recognize it.

[@rambard5599]

It's not as simple as that. Obviously a big part of the reason why they took so long to realize the cause, was the fact that this is a medical drama and they needed to justify such a long episode, but still, as some other people have said elsewhere in the video, doctors are taught to think horses, not zebras. Even though rabies is way more common in undeveloped countries, unless they have a reason to believe that the patient has even been near said undeveloped countries, it is completely understandable for rabies to slip their minds, even if the symptoms they're seeing are obviously those of rabies. Someone who doesn't have to deal with patients every day would obviously identify it as rabies, as it's just another piece of trivia. But when rabies is one of the least common sights in your workplace, and you work treating illnesses, it's understandable to not recognize rabies as such and instead treat the symptoms as those of something else as they come.

the plague isn't that dangerous normally - we have plenty of antibiotics these days.

[@jkbubbly]

Even with treatment, it has a 10% mortality rate, which is way too high for comfort.

[@xaiano794]

unless they have pneumonic plague (i.e. in the lungs) you have very little chance of catching it, but given that you don't catch it by contact, rather than by inhaling infected droplets then i'd say it's pretty pointless worrying about gloves although DEFINITELY wash hands as you wouldn't want to accidentally ingest it.

“Being burned alive at least ends fast.” This is dead wrong. You’ve never heard of real life before. Take it from my 10th grade history teacher: “A person will do anything before they burn.” Watch a movie. Learn about 9/11. It all points the other way.

How can he list the symptoms of rabies to a bunch of medical professionals and they give him a dumb look- I'm an 18 yr old girl with no medical knowledge and even I knew what that was from the list he gave

I figured that it was a look of 'are you shitting me' rather than 'I don't understand what you just said'. Granted, they give him that a lot, so it's easy to mix them up...

[@rambard5599]

The difference between being a professional and not being a professional is, that when you're a professional your brain tends to favor the knowledge it uses more often, instead of the one that is most appropriate to the presented situation. When you're a doctor, you're more likely to remember the most common illnesses, than you are to remember the illnesses that fit the symptoms the best, so even the most obvious diagnosis could be almost impossible to come up with if it's not common enough, as it could completely slip your mind. Long story short, if the illness is too unusual, it's difficult to understand even if it's spelled out for you.

[@Charlie-uz1il]

Rambard that seems super detrimental to a doctors career😂 but I get you

[@rambard5599]

You're probably right, but it's just normal human behavior, the uncommon answers usually slip our minds, especially when lives are on the line.

[@phastinemoon]

There's also a saying for doctors in the diagnostic field: "When you hear hooves, look for horses, not zebras." Meaning that when you see symptoms, you should look for the more mundane explanation, rather than a rare, exotic one (in this case, the symptoms, when noted individually, could be explained by more common diseases or disorders -- think of how many things have headache and fever as symptoms, we don't just go through the list by alphabetical order whenever we get those...)

[@Lieutenant_Dude]

Plague case was interesting, but it also highlights how bad most MDs are at looking for vector borne infections. Plague is carried by biting arthropods like fleas, as is cat scratch fever, Lyme, Rocky Mountain spotted fever, ehrlichiosis, anaplasmosis, and tularemia. Most of these diseases come right out of left field for MDs, but veterinarians end up seeing them a lot. A friend in vet school had to diagnose herself with ehrlichia and fight her doctor to run the proper test to look for it and give her the correct antibiotics for it.

[@bwakel310]

Jenia Minkov My dad got heavy metal poisoning from his job. Lead and a good host of others.

[@sherr1306]

Zero Cool, or a guy who has literally 2 persons inside him because of the brain surgery.

[@LevenScholar]

Yeah but the cipa wasn't the diagnosed disease it was a preexisting condition, her actual disease was a tapeworm right? I think this compilation is for the diseases House diagnosed and cured/ couldn't cure

[@thomasbishop3494]

Outside a medical context, heavy metal poisoning sounds awesome! "Yeah can't come in to work today. I've come down with a case of Twisted Sister and all I can do is rock."

[@Themadhatton]

Being someone who’s being tested for a pheochromacytoma, it was amazing to see a house episode on it!

[@mashihodpotatoetm4572]

"but pheo's exteremely rare" "I love rare" lmao love it

[@TyrBarghest]

I would say the rarest was the case of Chimera. As of typing this, there's only been 4 recorded human cases. Though I'm also a bit bias here. That episode was the one and only time I was able to figure out the problem before House was.

[@sonyafonger3456]

the idea of needles cause me to panic even thinking of one going into my eye makes me tear up and breathe like I'm running a marathon

the plague girl was lucky. out of the 3 she wound up with the one you're mostly likely to survive with treatment.

Yeah, no kidding.

[@nourrizk6129]

My brother had pheochromocytoma.. the tumor had reached his heart.. he had gone to donate blood and they checked his blood pressure as a routine procedure... 240 over 120.... He had no symptoms at all.. Doctors couldn't believe how high his bp was.. He needed 15 hours in surgery to remove the whole tumor and his kidney.. now he is doing great.. just needs to take extra care of that one kidney

#0: The Lupus guy in season 4. That was legendary

[@sinandcyanide7505]

Where is CIPA? There are only 85 cases of people living with it in the entire US right now. And Cushing's? Each year, there are only 5 cases for every one million people. Both of these were featured in episodes of the show.

[@Laurinska08]

Jen Blevins-Postgate Cushing’s isn’t as rare ..especially for people on long term high dose steroids ..I’m not sure if it’s more common in the US because I’ve just seen it here more often.

[@sinandcyanide7505]

Lauren B I'll clarify. It's rarely diagnosed. Cushing's from taking steroids is Cushing's syndrome, not Cushing's disease. The type I have is caused by a tumor at the base of my brain, which is the type that's least often diagnosed. There are probably a lot more people who have it and don't know, but many never get diagnosed properly.

[@notanevilrussian9674]

The girl didn’t have CIPA, she had a history of it. Watch the show

[@SentaiYamaneko]

CIPA wasn't the diagnosis. It was a pre-existing condition. The diagnosis was tapeworm.

Makes you wonder how much fairy tale stuff was going on in House MD...

[@tusharsharma1299]

Why is he doing all the tests by himself, aren’t there labs in this hospital?

[@dachshund5340]

tushar sharma he's just that good

[@Ravenbones]

Some episodes he doesnt the tests himself. But since they are working with Patients that have icnreasing symptoms leading to death, he can't wait around for a lab. He must do them himself or the team most to get it done fast. Basically having house is like having the best healthcare ever.

[@msnmasc24]

What about the Cuban woman with the freaky heart defect?

[@eao89]

Manuel Santos very good memory! Yes it is in fact so rare it was made up! It’s only been theorized in medicine but in the House MD universe, they set it up so that she actually had it and House is quoted to be the first to diagnosis it ever. On the other hand, since no one has had it in our universe to date, it remains theory and does not qualify for this list.

[@shamanthhl]

As a med student I have a question! When someone comes to the emergency (as usually in house md and they have an infection) don't we all write up for a complete blood check and cultures? (after stabilising the patient) If they did that in house md, each episode would probably last like 3-4 mins! But instead they do all kinds of scans and dna anysis and genetic sequencing and rare procedures and stuff before doing the basic thing.... Like whaaaat?

[@alexandervowles3518]

A year late, but generally they only get the case after other doctors have had a go. You see this often where they redo initial tests themselves.

[@walterwhite4650]

Other doctors send over any medical history and presume it's nothing but house is a little more open minded in looking for zebras instead of horses. He knows thr history probably but not so bright about DNA testing and everything else

[@dr.buttcheeks]

1:20 Ugh, that made me cringe.

Title : the top 5 rarest diseases Number 2: the plague house: it’s treatable The plague am i a joke to you

[@katerinaaqu]

Well it is treatable. Like leprosis. Basically the plague or any plague requires antibiotics and be done with it. Back then people thought that prayer and blood letting would do the job or some herbal tea at best case.

[@SeTaAR]

Where is erdheim chester boy and the girl is allergic to light

[@darjansusa8553]

Yep or where is chimerism and CIPA also?

[@sithisrants4154]

Darjan Suša CIPA wasn't that girl's actual diagnosis, though. It was just a previously diagnosed illness she already knew she had at the beginning of the episode, making it harder to diagnose her then undiagnosed problem.

[@definitelynotlink5420]

Darjan Suša it’s in “strange conditions” (chimerism)

[@caleblandgraf2238]

Allergy to light is actually fairly common compared to these conditions, Chimerism is somewhat common but its symptons arent usually as bad, CIPA is rare but not quite rare enough, erdheim chester is also not rare enough

[@notanevilrussian9674]

Allergy to light isn’t rare
