bodies on blood smear, hemolytic
anemia after fava bean ingestion.

after surgery.
4. Neural tube defect Main concern with elevated AFP in
a pregnant woman's amniotic fluid
(e.g., spina bifida).

creased osmotic fragility, and neg-
ative Coombs test.

with fever, cough with rusty spu-
tum, and lobar consolidation on
CXR.

episodic palpitations, diaphoresis,
hypertension, and elevated cate-
cholamines.
13. Portal hypertension Cause of ascites with SAAG >1.1,
low protein, and history of liver
disease.

lateral neck X-ray and patient
drooling with stridor.

erythematous nodules on anterior
shins.
18. Toxoplasma gondii encephalitis Most likely diagnosis for a
'ring-enhancing lesion' on brain
MRI in an HIV patient.
19. Retinal detachment Described as sudden painless loss
of vision like a 'curtain coming
down'.
20. Hodgkin lymphoma Diagnosed in a young adult
with fever, night sweats, and
painless cervical lymphadenopa-
thy (Reed-Sternberg cells).
21. Duchenne muscular dystrophy Characterized by diflculty climb-
ing stairs, Gower's sign, and calf
pseudohypertrophy.
22. Adrenal insufficiency Characterized by hyperpigmenta-
tion, hypotension, hyponatremia,
