Good call Scott. Patient presented with left shoulder pain, and they found an elevated left hemidiaphragm, due to a gigantic hepatic mass pictured in CT below the chest x-ray. Turns out it was Entamoeba histolytica! Creed and I were both suprised by that one.
Yeah the x-ray was the easy part. The hard part is what do you do with Entamoeba histolytica. You will have to ask Creed what he thinks the best treatment regiment for that one will be
So did it put him to sleep or did he learn to say sternum?
ReplyDeleteAt this rate, Creed will be a Dr. by the age of 5. Kisses to all of you.
