Question
A 26-year-old woman is brought for evaluation after an episode of near-syncope. The patient's husband states that they were eating a restaurant 20 minutes ago, when she suddenly began to experience severe weakness and dizziness. She also reported nausea, abdominal cramping, and a generalized itching sensation but no chest pain or shortness of breath. Temperature is 36.7 C, blood pressure is 80/50 mm Hg, pulse is 120/min, and respirations are 20/min. On physical examination, the patient is ill appearing with flushed skin and warm extremities. The lungs are clear to auscultation, and cardiac examination has no murmurs. The abdomen is soft with mild diffuse tenderness, and bowel sounds are normal. ECG reveals sinus tachycardia. In addition to intravenous fluids, which of the following is the best next step in management?
| A. Antistaphylococcal antibiotics | |
| B. Intramuscular adrenaline | |
| C. Red blood cell transfusion | |
| D. Supportive care only | |
| E. Synchronized cardioversion |
Explanation

|
This patient with abdominal cramping, pruritus, flushing, and hypotension has anaphylactic shock. Anaphylaxis, a life-threatening condition that can develop at any age, is caused by the sudden massive degranulation of mast cells and basophils. Most cases are IgE-mediated type I hypersensitivity reactions to an allergen, including insect stings, medications, and foods (as likely occurred in this patient).
Anaphylaxis is a multisystem disorder that usually affects ≥2 organ systems. Skin or mucosal manifestations, including flushing, pruritus, and swelling of the lips or tongue, occur in >90% of patients. The most common diagnostic criterion requires skin/mucosa involvement associated with either cardiovascular (eg, hypotension) or respiratory (eg, stridor, bronchospasm) manifestations. However, patients with exposure to a known allergen require only hypotension for diagnosis. Other common manifestations include gastrointestinal (eg, abdominal pain, nausea), neurologic (eg, confusion), and ocular (eg, conjunctival erythema) symptoms.
Management requires prompt administration of intramuscular adrenaline, which has agonist effects on the alpha-1 and beta-2 receptors, resulting in vasoconstriction (increases blood pressure, reduces edema) and bronchodilation (relieves bronchospasm), respectively. Repeat dosing may be required.
(Choice A) Staphylococcal toxic shock syndrome (TSS) can occur in menstruating women who use tampons and may also cause hypotension, skin manifestations, and gastrointestinal symptoms. However, high fever is expected, and the rash associated with TSS is typically diffuse, erythematous, and involves the palms and soles.
(Choice C) Red blood cell transfusion (uncross-matched blood) is indicated for those with severe, life-threatening bleeding. Patients with significant bleeding develop hypovolemic shock, characterized by cool, pale extremities (as opposed to this patient's warm, flushed extremities) typically associated with hematemesis or hematochezia. Pruritus would be unexpected.
(Choice D) This patient has anaphylactic shock, and immediate administration of epinephrine is required to relieve symptoms. Supportive care without epinephrine may result in this patient's demise.
(Choice E) Synchronized cardioversion is indicated in patients with an unstable arrhythmia (ie, supraventricular tachycardia associated with hypotension). This patient has sinus tachycardia due to anaphylaxis, not an arrhythmia. This rhythm would not respond to cardioversion, and shock would risk inducing an arrhythmia.
Educational objective:
Anaphylaxis is a life-threatening, multisystem disorder that commonly involves the skin or mucosa in association with the cardiovascular or respiratory system. Other common manifestations include gastrointestinal, neurologic, and ocular symptoms. Management includes the prompt administration of intramuscular adrenaline.
Question
An 84-year-old man has had severe left-sided flank pain and nausea over the last hour. He has also had syncope but has had no chest pain and no bowel or bladder symptoms. His medical conditions include hypertension, dyslipidemia, and a transient ischemic attack 5 years ago. He has a 50-pack-year smoking history. Temperature is 37.1 C, blood pressure is 90/60 mm Hg, and pulse is 112/min. Pulse oximetry shows 94% on room air. The patient appears anxious, pale, and diaphoretic. Diffuse abdominal tenderness to deep palpation and left costovertebral angle tenderness is present. Bowel sounds are present. There is no rigidity or guarding. Peripheral pulses are decreased. Which of the following is the most likely diagnosis?
| A. Abdominal aortic aneurysm rupture | |
| B. Acute cholangitis | |
| C. Acute pyelonephritis | |
| D. Nephrolithiasis with ureteral obstruction | |
| E. Perforation of diverticula |

This patient's acute onset of severe flank pain, syncope, and hemodynamic instability is concerning for a ruptured abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA). AAA typically occurs in patients age >60 and is more common in smokers, men, and those with a history of atherosclerosis. Patients typically have few symptoms until the AAA markedly expands or ruptures, precipitating abdominal or flank pain. Less common presentations include distal ischemia, due to embolization of the thrombus or of atherosclerotic debris from the aneurysm; and high-output heart failure, resulting from erosion of the AAA into the vena cava (ie, aortocaval fistula).
AAA rupture usually occurs posteriorly into the retroperitoneum, which can delay the onset of hemodynamic instability (eg, 1 h of symptoms in this patient); however, rupture may occur anteriorly with direct leakage into the peritoneum and rapid onset of hemodynamic instability and shock. Physical examination may reveal a pulsatile abdominal mass at the umbilicus as well as flank or umbilical hematomas. However, findings are sometimes subtle or nonspecific. Delayed or missed diagnosis is common because ruptured AAA often mimics other abdominal pathologies (eg, renal colic, acute pancreatitis) and approximately 75% of presenting patients have no known history of AAA.
(Choice B) Acute cholangitis can present with abdominal pain and hypotension; however, patients typically have fever and the abdominal pain is usually in the right upper quadrant (with possible radiation to the back).
(Choice C) Acute pyelonephritis commonly presents with flank pain, and hemodynamic instability may occur due to sepsis; however, this patient's lack of fever or bladder symptoms (eg, dysuria) makes this diagnosis less likely.
(Choice D) Nephrolithiasis with obstruction often causes flank pain however, it would not account for this patient's hemodynamic instability and reduced peripheral pulses. Of note, AAA complicated by an aortocaval fistula can cause venous congestion of the bladder, sometimes leading to hematuria that is misdiagnosed as nephrolithiasis.
(Choice E) Left lower quadrant pain, nausea, and vomiting are commonly present in acute diverticulitis. When perforation occurs, patients usually have signs of peritonitis (eg, rebound, guarding).
Educational objective:
Ruptured abdominal aortic aneurysm presents with the acute onset of severe abdominal or flank pain, sometimes accompanied by syncope, a pulsatile abdominal mass, and/or flank or umbilical hematomas. The onset of hemodynamic instability can be abrupt or delayed.
Question
A 2-year-old boy presents with difficulty breathing that started 6 hours earlier. The patient has had rhinorrhea, nasal congestion, and a dry cough that sounds "like a barking dog" for the past day. Temperature is 37.7 C (99.9 F) and respirations are 24/min. Pulse oximetry is 99% on room air. The patient has inspiratory stridor when crying. He is diagnosed with croup, administered oral dexamethasone, and observed in the hospital. On reassessment 30 minutes later, oxygen saturation is 96% on room air and respirations are 32/min. The patient is awake and alert but has inspiratory stridor at rest with subcostal and intercostal retractions. Which of the following is the best next step in management?
| A. Chest radiograph | |
| B. Intubation and mechanical ventilation | |
| C. Nebulized albuterol | |
| D. Nebulized racemic adrenaline | |
| E. Supplemental oxygen via face mask |

Croup is a viral illness that causes laryngeal and tracheal inflammation, leading to subglottic edema and narrowing. The classic presentation includes a barky, seal-like cough with inspiratory stridor. Mild cases (no stridor at rest) are treated with a single dose of corticosteroids (eg, dexamethasone) to decrease airway edema.
Stridor at rest (severe croup), such as in this patient, can develop in those with progressive airway swelling and obstruction; these patients are treated with nebulized adrenaline in addition to corticosteroids. Nebulized epinephrine constricts mucosal arterioles in the upper airway and alters capillary hydrostatic pressure, leading to decreased airway edema and reduced secretions. After administration, patients are observed for 4 hours because symptoms can recur. Patients needing multiple doses of nebulized epinephrine typically require hospital admission.
Intubation with mechanical ventilation is reserved for those who have failed treatment with corticosteroids and nebulized epinephrine and/or have signs of impending respiratory failure (eg, altered mental status, poor respiratory effort) (Choice B).
(Choice A) Steeple sign on chest x-ray confirms croup if the diagnosis is uncertain. However, this patient has classic croup, and imaging would delay intervention for his respiratory distress.
(Choice C) Nebulized albuterol is the first-line treatment for asthma exacerbations because its beta-agonist effect (bronchodilation) relieves lower airway bronchospasm. Albuterol does not reduce subglottic edema or play a role in the treatment of croup.
(Choice E) Although supplemental oxygen should improve hypoxemia (oxygen saturation <92%), this patient is not hypoxemic and oxygen would not correct the underlying subglottic edema.
Educational objective:
Croup, a viral infection that causes subglottic edema and narrowing, presents with a barky cough and inspiratory stridor. Patients with stridor at rest are treated with corticosteroids and nebulized adrenaline.
Question
A 36-year-old woman presents after having severe epigastric and right shoulder pain for 2 hours. The patient also vomited once. When asked about her diet, she explains that she unintentionally fasted all day and had a fatty meal 2 hours ago. The patient had a similar episode last month but did not seek medical attention because it was less severe and resolved spontaneously in a few hours. Medical history is significant for heartburn, and she takes a proton pump inhibitor. On examination, the abdomen is soft and nontender. About 4 hours after the pain began, it resolves completely. Which of the following best explains this episode?
| A. Acid hypersecretion and mucosal irritation | |
| B. Fat necrosis | |
| C. Hollow organ contraction and outlet obstruction | |
| D. Outlet obstruction and mucosal inflammation | |
| E. Peritoneal irritation |
Explanation
This patient's presentation is classic for biliary colic, which occurs when a gallstone causes intermittent outlet obstruction of the cystic duct. The gallbladder, a hollow organ that stores bile, normally contracts in response to dietary intake (especially fatty meals). However, when it contracts against a blocked cystic duct, the increased intragallbladder pressure causes pain.
Patients classically experience intense, dull, right upper quadrant (RUQ) or epigastric pain that often radiates to the upper back or right shoulder and is accompanied by nausea and vomiting. Despite its name, biliary colic is constant (not colicky). The pain intensity typically increases rapidly over 30-60 minutes, plateaus, then subsides within 4-6 hours as the gallbladder relaxes and the stone falls back from the duct. Abdominal examination is usually benign, even during episodes.
In contrast, in acute cholecystitis the gallbladder mucosa becomes inflamed due to prolonged obstruction of the cystic duct. Although the pain is similar to biliary colic in location, radiation, and associated symptoms, it usually persists longer than 6 hours. In addition, patients with cholecystitis frequently have fever, leukocytosis, and tenderness to palpation in the midclavicular line under the right costal margin (Murphy sign) (Choice D).
(Choice A) Gastric acid hypersecretion and mucosal irritation (eg, gastroesophageal reflux disease, peptic ulcer disease) typically cause burning epigastric pain accompanied by heartburn, belching, and early satiety. The pain does not typically radiate to the shoulder, and vomiting (although it may occur) is uncommon.
(Choice B) Fat necrosis may accompany acute pancreatitis, which can cause nausea, vomiting, and constant epigastric pain that radiates to the back. However, pain usually does not resolve spontaneously within a few hours.
(Choice E) Rebound tenderness, abdominal guarding, and decreased bowel sounds are expected examination findings in patients with peritoneal irritation. This patient's abdominal examination was benign.
Educational objective:
Biliary colic occurs when the gallbladder contracts against a gallstone that is obstructing the cystic duct. Increased intragallbladder pressure causes the characteristic intense, dull, right upper quadrant or epigastric pain. Symptoms are often triggered by fatty meals and typically resolve completely within 4-6 hours.
Question
A 67-year-old man presents with worsening left foot pain. The pain involves the entire left foot and is severe in the forefoot. The pain began a day prior while the patient was lying in bed watching television. He immediately sat up and dangled his foot over the side of the bed, but this did not improve the pain as it had during past episodes. Although the pain was initially mild, it progressively worsened over the course of the day. Medical history includes hypertension and hyperlipidemia. The patient smokes 1-2 packs of cigarettes daily. Temperature is 36.7 C, blood pressure is 146/90 mm Hg, and pulse is 92/min. On examination, the skin of both lower legs is shiny and hairless, and the left foot is mottled and cooler to the touch than the right foot. Pulses are not palpable in either foot but can be detected with doppler in the right foot. The left foot has capillary refill of 4-5 seconds. The patient has difficulty moving his left foot and toes. Which of the following is the most likely cause of the patient's new symptoms?
| A. Acute-on-chronic limb ischemia | |
| B. Compartment syndrome | |
| C. Popliteal vein thrombosis | |
| D. Raynaud phenomenon | |
| E. Thromboangiitis obliterans |
Explanation
This patient likely has peripheral artery disease (PAD) given his risk factors (eg, smoking, hypertension, hyperlipidemia), symptoms (eg, rest pain that improved with dangling), and clinical findings (eg, shiny, hairless legs). In patients with PAD, atherosclerosis of peripheral arteries (eg, popliteal artery) may be complicated by plaque disruption. This can lead to thrombosis and acute-on-chronic limb ischemia (eg, mottling, coolness, prolonged capillary refill, paresis).
In contrast to patients without PAD who develop acute limb ischemia (eg, due to arterial embolus from atrial fibrillation) and typically have abrupt onset of the classic 6 Ps of ischemia, those with existing PAD who develop acute-on-chronic limb ischemia (eg, due to thrombosis from plaque disruption) often lack these classic features or develop them more slowly (eg, over 1 day, as in this patient). This is because preexisting collateral circulation, which formed in response to progressive accumulation of atherosclerosis in the primary arterial circulation (eg, popliteal artery), can supply some perfusion to the affected distal limb, as in this patient with prolonged but not absent capillary refill. Even with collateral circulation, distal limb perfusion is still typically inadequate; therefore, most patients with acute-on-chronic limb ischemia require emergency intervention (eg, intravenous heparin infusion, thrombolysis, thrombectomy).
(Choice B) Increased fascial compartmental pressure can lead to compartment syndrome, a limb-threatening cause of pain and paresis (a late sign). However, compartment syndrome typically occurs after trauma (eg, crush, fracture) or ischemia-reperfusion and is classically associated with tense swelling and increased pain on passive stretch.
(Choice C) Popliteal vein thrombosis more commonly causes distal warmth and/or swelling (ie, decreased venous outflow) rather than coolness and prolonged capillary refill (ie, decreased arterial inflow).
(Choice D) Exaggerated cutaneous vasoreactivity is seen in Raynaud phenomenon and may cause skin color changes. However, vasoconstriction is typically triggered by cold, is more common in the hands, and usually lasts minutes not hours.
(Choice E) Thromboangiitis obliterans, a tobacco-associated vasculitis, can lead to extremity ischemia, pain, and discoloration. However, symptoms typically begin distally (eg, digital ischemia) before progressing proximally. In addition, patients are typically age <45 and often have normal distal pulses.
Educational objective:
Due to preexisting collateral circulation, acute limb ischemia in the setting of chronic peripheral artery disease (PAD) often presents less dramatically than in patients without PAD. Patients require emergency intervention.
Question
A 45-year-old man has sudden onset of a skin rash and oral lesions with fever. The patient is unable to eat or drink due to pain in his mouth and throat. He had a headache and malaise prior to developing the skin lesions. The patient had an episode of sinusitis for which he was prescribed trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole 5 days ago. Temperature is 38.3 C, blood pressure is 110/80 mm Hg, pulse is 92/min, and respirations are 14/min. On examination, conjunctivae in both eyes are inflamed. The patient has extensive erosions involving the oral mucosa. There is also an erythematous, desquamating rash with scattered involvement of the trunk and proximal thighs, as seen in the exhibit. Which of the following is the most likely diagnosis?
| A. Erythema multiforme | |
| B. Impetigo | |
| C. Pemphigus vulgaris | |
| D. Stevens-Johnson syndrome | |
| E. Toxic shock syndrome |

Stevens-Johnson syndrome (SJS) is a serious inflammatory reaction to drugs or certain infections (eg, Mycoplasma pneumoniae). Clinical features include coalescing erythematous macules, bullae, desquamation, and mucositis. Systemic signs are common and may include fever, tachycardia, hypotension, altered level of consciousness, seizures, and coma. By convention, SJS denotes <10% of body surface area involvement, >30% is designated as toxic epidermal necrolysis (TEN), and 10%-30% is SJS/TEN overlap.
The diagnosis of SJS is based on the typical mucocutaneous lesions, systemic signs, and exposure to a likely causative medication. Treatment is supportive, with aggressive fluid support and wound care similar to that for burns. Secondary infections are common, and fatalities may occur despite treatment.
(Choice A) Erythema multiforme (EM) is a self-limited illness characterized by an acute erythematous rash and usually occurs after herpes simplex infection. EM may cause mucosal lesions similar to those of SJS, but the predominant skin lesions are typically targetoid plaques favoring the distal extremities rather than desquamating bullae; systemic symptoms are not as prominent as in SJS.
(Choice B) Impetigo is a staphylococcal or streptococcal skin infection characterized by red macules and papular lesions with honey-colored crusts. It is most common in children.
(Choice C) Pemphigus vulgaris is caused by autoantibodies to desmosomes. Like SJS, it can cause mucosal lesions and desquamating bullae. However, systemic signs (eg, fever) are less prominent, and the course is typically more chronic, with oral lesions appearing weeks to months prior to skin symptoms.
(Choice E) Toxic shock syndrome is an inflammatory response caused by a staphylococcal exotoxin and presents with fever, rash, hypotension, constitutional symptoms, and multiorgan injury. The rash is characterized by diffuse erythema resembling sunburn, with desquamation involving the palms and soles.
Educational objective:
Stevens-Johnson syndrome is an inflammatory reaction to drugs or certain infections and is characterized by coalescing erythematous macules, bullae, desquamation, and mucositis. Systemic signs include fever, hemodynamic instability, and altered level of consciousness.

Most Indian MBBS Students Realise This Too Late
Presenting cases is very different from reading about them. Theoretical knowledge must be paired with strong application skills for clinical success. Practising scenario-based questions can help eliminate gaps and ease the transition to patient care.
The experience you gain during ward postings is valuable, but Prof exams focus more on testing your clinical reasoning. Structured practice questions can help you reason through the type of clinical scenarios you’ll encounter during your MBBS journey.
Examiners want to see your medical understanding, practical knowledge, and clinical reasoning in real time. Medicos who practise realistic, case-based questions consistently perform better in viva voce than those who rely on rote memorisation alone.
