Guest guest Posted May 12, 2003 Report Share Posted May 12, 2003 Patient with adenocarcinoma, unknown primary, most likely breast cancer: 1) Does this sound right (both phrasing and tumor in consideration of unknown primary)? " Subsequent report also showed that the tumor expressed estrogen and progesterone receptors. " 2) Further evaluation including bone scan would show a (s/l " Suprascan " ) with diffuse involvement of metastatic disease. 3) Neurologic exam: There are no sensory or motor deficits, no (s/l " estorexus " ) noted. Thanks for any help. --------------------------------- a in Maine BA English Career Step Grad Total eMed - 8/19/02 Multispecialty Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted May 12, 2003 Report Share Posted May 12, 2003 #3 is probably asterixis. I have no idea on the others, sorry.
