Very Very good Tommy post
Original Clinical Case Copyright ValueMD and Family:
We previously discussed cancers. Did you know you could be presented in clinics and USMLEs with a case addressing cancers and different organ types? KNOW that the most common cancer in any organ is metastatic and DO NOT say primary type. Now here it is:
Q) That said, you have an older gentlemen named Crandle and he comes to you with spiking back pain. On exam, he has loss in his arms and legs, loss of motor function. You suspect metastatic cancer of the prostate to the SPINE. What are the classes of drugs you will be asked to master for this MOST COMMONLY diagnosed cancer in the US (LUNG Cancer is the most common death from cancer, but PROSTATE is most common in DIAGNOSIS)
Q) What is the market that doctors look for to see Prostate cancer?
Q4) Also, I forgot to mention, what SPECIFICALLY DO YOU TELL TO a patient you are IDed as risks for PROSTATE CANCER?
Q5) Besides age, due to its genetic linkage, prostate cancer is more frequent in patients with a strong family history of prostate cancer. Likewise, people who smoke, African American males, and patients who consume a diet high in animal fat or high in chromium have increased incidence. DO NOT FORGET! I SHOULD HAVE BROKEN THIS POST INTO 44 posts, but I WANTED you guys to lump them together! For better recall!!!
