All of the following are true about Lymphoma of the thymus except:

More common in females
Slow growing
Clinically confused with undifferentiated tumours
May present with respiratory distress and dysphagia

Correct Answer

A. Slow growing

Explanation

Lymphoma of the thymus is a type of cancer that affects the thymus gland, which is located in the chest. It is characterized by the abnormal growth of lymphocytes, a type of white blood cell. This type of lymphoma is typically more common in males rather than females, making the statement "More common in females" false. Lymphoma of the thymus is known to be slow-growing, meaning it progresses at a relatively slow rate. It can often be confused with undifferentiated tumors, as the symptoms and presentation may be similar. Additionally, it may present with respiratory distress and dysphagia, which are symptoms caused by the tumor's location in the chest. Therefore, the statement "Slow growing" is the correct answer.

The following is a marker of Paget’s disease of breast

S- 100
HMB 45
CEA
Neuron specific enolase

Correct Answer

A. CEA

Explanation

CEA stands for carcinoembryonic antigen, which is a protein that is often found in high levels in people with certain types of cancer, including breast cancer. Paget's disease of the breast is a rare form of breast cancer that affects the skin of the nipple and areola. CEA can be used as a marker to help diagnose and monitor the progression of Paget's disease of the breast. Therefore, the presence of CEA is indicative of Paget's disease of the breast.

All of the following statements about Gynaecomastia are true except:

Subcutaneous mastectomy is the initial treatment of choice
Seen in liver disease
There may be estrogen – testosterone imbalance
Can be drug induced

Correct Answer

A. Subcutaneous mastectomy is the initial treatment of choice

Explanation

Gynaecomastia is a condition characterized by the enlargement of breast tissue in males. It is commonly seen in liver disease, as the liver plays a role in metabolizing hormones. Gynaecomastia can also be caused by an imbalance of estrogen and testosterone levels, as well as by certain medications. However, subcutaneous mastectomy is not the initial treatment of choice for gynaecomastia. The treatment approach depends on the underlying cause and may include medication, lifestyle changes, or surgery.

Which of the following statements related to gastric injury is not true?

Mostly related to penetrating trauma
Treatment is simple debridement and suturing
Blood in stomach is always related to gastric injury

While gastric injury can cause bleeding in the stomach, there are other conditions and factors that can also lead to blood in the stomach, such as ulcers, gastritis, or bleeding disorders. Therefore, the presence of blood in the stomach does not always indicate gastric injury.

A patient sustained Traumatic injury to major abdominal vessels. lt has been planned to explore the Suprarenal Aorta. the Celiac Axis, the Superior Mesentric Artery, and the Left Renal Artery. What maneuver for exposure is recommended:

Cranial Visceral Rotation
Caudal Visceral Rotation
Left Medial Visceral Rotation
Right Medical Visceral Rotation

Correct Answer

A. Left Medial Visceral Rotation

Explanation

Left Medial Visceral Rotation is recommended for exposure in this case. This maneuver involves rotating the abdominal organs to the left side, allowing for better access and visualization of the suprarenal aorta, celiac axis, superior mesenteric artery, and left renal artery. This maneuver helps to provide a clear surgical field and facilitates the exploration and repair of the major abdominal vessels after traumatic injury.

All the following polyps are premalignant except

Juvenile polyposis syndrome
Famillial polyposis syndrome
Juvenile polyp
Peutz jegher syndrome

Correct Answer

A. Juvenile polyp

On the other hand, conditions like juvenile polyposis syndrome, familial polyposis syndrome, and Peutz Jeghers syndrome are all associated with premalignant polyps. Therefore, the correct answer is "Juvenile polyp" because it is the only option that does not represent a premalignant condition.
