1. A 68-year-old male with a history of hypertension
and type 2 diabetes presents with sudden onset of
severe, tearing chest pain that radiates to his back.
His blood pressure is 180/110 mmHg in the right
arm and 140/90 mmHg in the left arm. What is the
most likely diagnosis?
a) Acute myocardial infarction
b) Pulmonary embolism
c) Aortic dissection
d) Pericarditis
Correct Answer: c) Aortic dissection
Rationale: The classic presentation of an aortic
,dissection includes sudden, severe, tearing chest
pain that radiates to the back, often with a
difference in blood pressure between the arms. This
is a cardiovascular emergency requiring immediate
imaging and surgical consultation.
2. A 45-year-old female presents with fatigue,
weight gain, cold intolerance, and constipation. On
examination, she has a bradycardia and a non-
pitting edema of her lower extremities. Laboratory
findings reveal an elevated TSH and a low free T4.
What is the most appropriate initial treatment?
a) Methimazole
b) Levothyroxine
c) Radioactive iodine ablation
d) Propranolol
Correct Answer: b) Levothyroxine
Rationale: The patient’s symptoms and lab findings
(elevated TSH, low free T4) are consistent with
primary hypothyroidism. The standard treatment is
thyroid hormone replacement with levothyroxine,
which is titrated to normalize TSH levels.
,3. A 23-year-old male is brought to the emergency
department after a motor vehicle accident. He is
tachypneic, and his trachea is deviated to the left.
Breath sounds are absent on the right side, and
percussion is hyperresonant. What is the immediate
next step in management?
a) Chest X-ray
b) Needle decompression of the right chest
c) CT scan of the chest
d) Intubation
Correct Answer: b) Needle decompression of the
right chest
Rationale: The presentation of tracheal deviation to
the contralateral side (left) and absent breath
sounds with hyperresonance on the affected side
(right) is consistent with a tension pneumothorax.
This is a life-threatening condition that requires
immediate needle decompression to relieve
pressure, followed by chest tube placement.
4. A 55-year-old male with a 30-pack-year smoking
history presents with a new-onset cough,
hemoptysis, and weight loss. A chest X-ray shows a
, right hilar mass. Which diagnostic test is most
definitive for confirming the diagnosis of lung
cancer?
a) PET scan
b) Sputum cytology
c) Bronchoscopy with biopsy
d) CT-guided fine-needle aspiration
Correct Answer: c) Bronchoscopy with biopsy
Rationale: While several imaging modalities and
cytology can suggest malignancy, a tissue biopsy
obtained via bronchoscopy provides the definitive
histopathological diagnosis necessary for confirming
lung cancer and determining the cell type.
5. A 72-year-old female is found on the floor by her
caregiver. She is confused and complains of pain in
her right hip. Her right leg is shortened and
externally rotated. What is the most likely
diagnosis?
a) Hip dislocation
b) Femoral neck fracture
c) Pelvic fracture
d) Sciatica
