The Clinical Problem Solvers
Episode 456 โ€“ RLR โ€“ A moving target

But at this juncture...

The Clinical Problem Solvers
Episode 456 โ€“ RLR โ€“ A moving target

I'm really worried about an auto-inflammatory disease or an auto-immune disease, given his age, or a disseminated STI based on the problem representation that I've synthesized with you guys today.

The Clinical Problem Solvers
Episode 456 โ€“ RLR โ€“ A moving target

Can I just make a quick interjection for old time's sake?

The Clinical Problem Solvers
Episode 456 โ€“ RLR โ€“ A moving target

I told my team to get a CT test out on pelvis in a patient the other day, and this has never happened.

The Clinical Problem Solvers
Episode 456 โ€“ RLR โ€“ A moving target

The radiologist called after they read it to be like, why did you order this study?

The Clinical Problem Solvers
Episode 456 โ€“ RLR โ€“ A moving target

Because it was that normal.

The Clinical Problem Solvers
Episode 456 โ€“ RLR โ€“ A moving target

Oh my gosh.

The Clinical Problem Solvers
Episode 456 โ€“ RLR โ€“ A moving target

Yeah.

The Clinical Problem Solvers
Episode 456 โ€“ RLR โ€“ A moving target

I think it's so interesting because when you said nightly fevers, um, you know, they, they use terms like quitodian.

The Clinical Problem Solvers
Episode 456 โ€“ RLR โ€“ A moving target

I don't even know if I'm pronouncing that correctly or Pell Epstein's fever where they come and go.

The Clinical Problem Solvers
Episode 456 โ€“ RLR โ€“ A moving target

And I was like, could this young guy have lymphoma?

The Clinical Problem Solvers
Episode 456 โ€“ RLR โ€“ A moving target

And then you're telling us you have night sweats.

Episode 456 โ€“ RLR โ€“ A moving target

And so what I'm going to update the problem representation with, in addition to migratory oligoarthritis, which I think later when I read about it and will add so much value in future discussions, but unfortunately right now I don't have a great schema for it, is lymphadenopathy.

The Clinical Problem Solvers
Episode 456 โ€“ RLR โ€“ A moving target

splenomegaly.

The Clinical Problem Solvers
Episode 456 โ€“ RLR โ€“ A moving target

So something happening in the reticuloendothelial system.

The Clinical Problem Solvers
Episode 456 โ€“ RLR โ€“ A moving target

And when you have this, it's not isolated lymphadenopathy, right, Robbie?

The Clinical Problem Solvers
Episode 456 โ€“ RLR โ€“ A moving target

This is diffuse, and it's involving the retroperitoneum.

The Clinical Problem Solvers
Episode 456 โ€“ RLR โ€“ A moving target

So when you're approaching lymphadenopathy,

The Clinical Problem Solvers
Episode 456 โ€“ RLR โ€“ A moving target

And quite frankly, that's where I would anchor my thinking in, is both the enlarged spleen and the lymph nodes.

The Clinical Problem Solvers
Episode 456 โ€“ RLR โ€“ A moving target

And then when I list diagnoses, I would see if they could explain the migratory oligoarthritis, the aphthous ulcers that this patient's experiencing, and the cutaneous findings that they're also experiencing.
