Match each patient's clinical presentation to the most appropriate initial diagnostic step or definitive procedural intervention.

  • 32-year-old man with a firm, painless testicular nodule and retroperitoneal lymphadenopathy on imagingRadical inguinal orchiectomy
  • 41-year-old man with a pelvic fracture, inability to void, and blood at the urethral meatus following a high-speed collisionRetrograde urethrography
  • 68-year-old man with painless gross hematuria and a 2-cm exophytic mucosal bladder lesion seen on office cystoscopyTransurethral resection of bladder tumor (TURBT)
  • 27-year-old pregnant patient at 24 weeks gestation with acute pyelonephritis secondary to an obstructing 8-mm ureteral calculusUreteral stent placement

Cevap

The painless testicular mass pairs with radical inguinal orchiectomy. The pelvic fracture with urethral blood pairs with retrograde urethrography. The exophytic bladder lesion pairs with TURBT. The pregnant patient with infected obstructing stone pairs with ureteral stent placement.
Each right-side item represents the definitive standard of care for the corresponding left-side presentation. Urethral injury requires retrograde urethrography, testicular cancer requires inguinal orchiectomy, bladder tumors require TURBT, and infected obstructing stones require urgent stent placement or nephrostomy.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Analyze each clinical presentation to identify the underlying urologic pathology.
Identified suspected testicular cancer, posterior urethral injury, bladder cancer, and complicated nephrolithiasis in pregnancy.
Accurate recognition of the clinical syndrome is prerequisite to determining the correct standard of care intervention.
2
Select the definitive diagnostic test or surgical management for each identified condition.
Matched each condition to its respective gold-standard urologic procedure.
USMLE guidelines emphasize knowing the absolute contraindications (e.g., blind catheterization in urethral injury) and emergent indications (e.g., immediate decompression of an infected obstructed kidney).
