3P High Stakes Exam
Horner's syndrome
When examining the eyes, the right pupil reacts briskly to light, near effort, and is much smaller
than the left pupil. This condition is most likely:
Paralysis of oculomotor cranial nerve (CN III)
Dilated pupil is fixed to light and near accommodation
Argyll Robertson pupils
Pupil appears small and irregular shaped and accommodate but do not react to light.
Seizure
uncontrolled electrical activity in brain, may produce minor physical signs, thought disturbances
or disturbed motor activity or combination of symptoms.
Dystonia
neurological disorder, causes involuntary muscle spasms & twisting of limbs.
Bradykinesia
impaired ability to adjust to one's body position.
Femoral vein
The great saphenous vein enters the deep venous system via:
The Abduction (Valgus) stress test
Maneuver the evaluates function of medial collateral ligament (MCL)
,Gray matter
The thalamus and basal ganglion are located in the:
Facial tics
brief, repetitive, stereotyped, coordinated movement occurring at irregular intervals (repetitive
winking, grimacing and shoulder shrugging)
Daughters of women who took Diethylstilbestrol (DES) during pregnancy are at high risk for
developing:
columnar epithelium that covers most or all of cervix vaginal adenosis, circular collar or ridge of
tissue between cervix & vagina.
Flexor group
Group of muscles that lie anteriorly and flex the thigh
Thymus, thyroid gland & anterior part of pericardium
The anterior mediastinal lymph nodes drain lymphatic fluid from the:
The breasts, upper part of the abdominal wall, upper part of back, pectoral region & upper
limbs
Axillary lymph node drainage are includes:
trauma, surgery & intranasal use of cocaine or amphetamines.
Possible causes of nasal septum perforation:
the peau d'orange (orange peel) sign
thickened skin with enlarged pores. First seen in lower portion of breast or areola. Visible sign of
breast cancer.
Median Nerve
provides sensation to palm, palmar surface of most of thumb, second & third fingers & half of
4th digit.
Ulnar Nerve
Innervates half of 4th digit & 5th digit
Radial Nerve
innervates dorsal web space of thumb & index finger
, Fibrous joints
Have intervening layers of fibrous tissue or cartilage holding bones together (sutures of skull)
Cartilaginous joints
Joints have bones connected by cartilage. (hyaline or fibrocartilage).
slightly movable.
Symphysis pubis & vertebrae
Examples of cartilaginous joints
Mechanical neck pain
Aching pain in the cervical paraspinal muscles and ligaments with associated muscle spasm,
with associated stiffness and tightness in the upper back and shoulder, lasting up to 6 weeks.
No associated radiation, paresthesias, or weakness.
Headache may be present.
Mechanical Neck pain-Whiplash
Paracervical pain & stiffness begins day after injury. Accompanied by occipital headaches,
dizziness & malaise
Cervical radiculopathy
nerve pain caused by pressure on the spinal nerve roots in the neck region
Symptoms: sharp burning or tingling pain in neck & one arm with assiciated paresthesias.
Cervical Myelopathy
cervical cord compression, neck pain associated with bilateral weakness & paresthesias in both
upper & lower extremities.
Diastasis Recti
Rectus abdominis muscles separate at midline as tension on abdominal wall increases with
pregnancy
10 days to 3 months
How long after exposure to syphilis will symptoms begin to present?
Cervicitis
