Day# 146 - Two cases

We talked about a case of stroke in a young patient. An approach to stroke in a young patient is outlined briefly here.

The case turned out to be meningovascular syphilis.

Here is an interesting article on the history of syphilis and another which talks about whether or not Shakespeare himself was infected.

The second case was that of massive liver enzyme elevation with synthetic dysfunction. I have previously blogged about hepatitis here.
