When questioned, his chest pain is worse when lying supine than sitting up. The patient had an acute anterior myocardial infarction 12 days prior to presentation, which was treated medically with thrombolytic therapy; he was discharged from the hospital 7 days ago. Past medical history is positive for the recent MI and hypercholesterolemia. Current medications are metoprolol, aspirin, benazepril, and atorvastatin. Except for the atorvastatin, all of the medications were started after his MI. Physical exam reveals temperature of 100.3° F, pulse 100, respiratory rate 22, and blood pressure 128/82. Pulse oximetry is 100% on room air. He appears moderately uncomfortable. Cardiac exam reveals a precordial rub in systole with somewhat muffled heart sounds. There are crackles at the bases of both lungs. He has no peripheral edema, and abdomen is benign. EKG reveals sinus tachycardia with small Q waves in leads V1 - V3; there is low voltage throughout. Portable chest X-ray reveals small bilateral pleural effusions. What is the most likely diagnosis? Leriche Syndrome And Dressler Syndrome And Takatsubos Cardiomyopathy 400 | Pickwickian syndrome Name the chronic condition encompassing extreme obesity, hypoventilation, relative hypoxia, polycythemia, and daytime somnolence Misc Cardio 400 | Thromboangiitis obliterans A 25-year-old male is in his doctor's waiting room.

Finally, the receptionist goes outside and brings him into the exam room to be seen by the doctor. She insists that he put out his cigarette. On physical examination, he is found to have a decreased radial pulse. There is ulceration on the digits of his remaining hand. Arteriography shows involvement of small and medium arteries and veins. What is the most likely condition? Vasculitis 400 |
