A patient with a known history of CV disease Iliac pudenal (major blood supply for penis)
including MI and positive ABI with PVD in his
left leg now has issues with erectile P. 518

A 73-year-old presents to the ED Dissecting aortic aneurysm
complaining of chest pain that started about
2 hours ago. EKG, cardiac enzymes and CXR "Tearing" type pain
are normal but his BP is lower in his right

A 19-year-old sustained a laceration to the Epitrochlear nodes
ulnar aspect o his mid-forearm while at work
last week and is now noticing purulent First nodes in drainage region from ulnar surface of forearm
discharge, pain, fever and chills. Where and hand, little and ring fingers and adjacent surfaces of
would the clinician expect to find the first middle finger
signs of lymphadenopathy?
P. 523
When assessing for femoral pulse, where Below the inguinal ligament, midway between the anterior
should the clinician begin deeply palpating? superior iliac spine and symphysis pubis
Palpating above inguinal ligament will assess external iliac

P. 526
, Which pulse is located on the dorsum of the Dorsalis pedis

A 61-year-old was recently diagnosed with Pulmonary embolism (PE)

progressing up his leg are noted. What do
these streaks represent?
A clinician, evaluating a patient for valvular Trendelenburg (retrograde filling test)
competency in the communicating veins of
the saphenous system, starts with the P. 532
patient supine then elevates one leg to
about 90 degrees to empty it of venous
blood. Next, the great saphenous vein is
occluded with manual compression and the
patient stands. The clinician keeps the vein
occluded while watching for venous filling
in the leg. Which test is being performed?
A 44-year-old noticed an increasing dilation Small saphenous veins
of the veins in her legs. It is noted that she
has significant varicosities on the posterior P. 514, 516
aspects of both legs which begin in the
lateral side of the foot and pass upward
along the posterior calf. Which veins are
currently affected?
A 42-year old fair-skinned woman presents E. Minimal but discernible increase in size over past 6 months
with an abnormal skin growth first noted 7
years ago. Which of the following historical P. 178-180
elements most increases the suspicion that
the lesion is malignant?
A. Mild intermittent pruritis over the last 2
years
B. Proximal location over the bicep vs distal
arm
C. Similar pinkish tan lesion on sun-exposed
areas of face and hands
D. Uniformly darkly pigmented color
E. Minimal but discernible increase in size
over last 6 months
