  1. 0:00How's it going, guys? Past little
  2. 0:01question for renal, 53-year-old dude,
  3. 0:03TKA ecchymosis on his forearms, mild
  4. 0:05bilateral pedal edema. And then we have
  5. 0:07a renal biopsy, which I'll talk about as
  6. 0:09we move through on choice A.
  7. 0:11What's most likely to be seen in this
  8. 0:12patient? What the [ __ ] am I saying?
  9. 0:14What's most likely to be seen in this
  10. 0:15patient, choice A?
  11. 0:17BUN to creatinine ratio of 22 is wrong,
  12. 0:19so BUN to creatinine ratio greater than
  13. 0:2220 means pre-renal azotemia, which
  14. 0:25doesn't relate to this image here.
  15. 0:27Pre-renal azotemia would be something
  16. 0:29causing decreased renal blood flow, like
  17. 0:32chronic NSAID use,
  18. 0:34diuretic use, chronic heart failure, can
  19. 0:38be dehydration, uh vomiting, diarrhea
  20. 0:41over many days. But when you have
  21. 0:43decreased renal blood flow, the PCT is
  22. 0:45going to try to reabsorb fluid to
  23. 0:47compensate, and it accomplishes that by
  24. 0:50increasing sodium and urea retention. So
  25. 0:55by pulling those out of the urine, water
  26. 0:57follows, so blood urea
  27. 1:00nitrogen goes up,
  28. 1:02and fractional excretion of sodium in
  29. 1:04the urine goes down under 1% since
  30. 1:06you're pulling it out of the urine. It's
  31. 1:07pre-renal azotemia. Can do a lengthy
  32. 1:10seminar on it, but we've got a renal
  33. 1:12problem here. If anything, this would be
  34. 1:14intrarenal, not pre-renal. Wrong [ __ ]
  35. 1:17answer.
  36. 1:21Choice B,
  37. 1:221+ blood urine dipstick, negative RBCs
  38. 1:25high powered field is wrong. This is
  39. 1:26going to be rhabdomyolysis.
  40. 1:28Now, if you've gone through my renal
  41. 1:30playlist, you'll know I've said that
  42. 1:31three to four RBCs per high powered
  43. 1:34field is also considered negative. I've
  44. 1:36made clips on it.
  45. 1:37Okay, it shows up on one of the surgery
  46. 1:39forms for 2CK, but you guys studying for
  47. 1:41Step 1, it's the same deal. You just
  48. 1:43need to know that zero to four RBCs per
  49. 1:46high powered field is negative.
  50. 1:48Rhabdomyolysis,
  51. 1:50when you have muscle breakdown, you
  52. 1:51release myoglobin into the blood,
  53. 1:53and the urine dipstick cannot
  54. 1:56differentiate
  55. 1:58free myoglobin
  56. 2:00from the hemoglobin that's in RBCs. So,
  57. 2:04it registers blood on the dipstick,
  58. 2:07but
  59. 2:08when you do microscopy, light
  60. 2:10microscopy, it's negative for RBCs when
  61. 2:12you have rhabdo. So, it's picking up the
  62. 2:14myoglobin. It's called false positive on
  63. 2:17a false positive blood on your urine
  64. 2:19dipstick.
  65. 2:21Wrong [ __ ] answer.
  66. 2:25Choice C. And it should just be noted
  67. 2:27alcoholism big cause of rhabdomyolysis.
  68. 2:30And they like giving this to you where a
  69. 2:33patient can have acute tubular necrosis.
  70. 2:35So, if you're forced to choose the renal
  71. 2:36diagnosis the setting of rhabdo, it's
  72. 2:39ATN. Choice C.
  73. 2:411+ blood urine dipstick positive RBCs
  74. 2:44high powered field. So, it's not an
  75. 2:46exact number you have to memorize. Could
  76. 2:48be 10, could be 20, 50.
  77. 2:50I just told you that 0 to 4 is negative.
  78. 2:52So, we clearly have positivity here.
  79. 2:54This could be any nephritic syndrome.
  80. 2:58This is a nephritic syndrome this
  81. 2:59diagnosis. We look at this image which
  82. 3:01as I said I'll explain I'm just being an
  83. 3:03[ __ ] not revealing it right away, but
  84. 3:06if you have let's say post-streptococcal
  85. 3:07glomerulonephritis,
  86. 3:09any of the vasculitides like Wegener,
  87. 3:13Churg-Strauss, microscopic polyangiitis,
  88. 3:15Goodpasture,
  89. 3:16Alport syndrome, mutation type 4
  90. 3:18collagen, IgA nephropathy. Okay, so when
  91. 3:21we talk about nephritic syndromes, you
  92. 3:24got to see a little bit of blood in the
  93. 3:25urine.
  94. 3:27Wrong [ __ ] answer.
  95. 3:30Choice D insulin resistance correct
  96. 3:31answer. Very
  97. 3:33easy.
  98. 3:34You're looking at Kimmelstiel-Wilson
  99. 3:35nodules. It's pass level.
  100. 3:37So, you see this image, you just say,
  101. 3:39"Okay, well
  102. 3:40we're looking at the pink These look
  103. 3:42like pink circles, don't they?"
  104. 3:44So, these are hyaline accumulations
  105. 3:46Kimmelstiel-Wilson nodules. This is
  106. 3:48diabetic glomerulosclerosis.
  107. 3:51And in type 2 diabetes, insulin
  108. 3:53resistance is the mechanism for that.
  109. 3:56And you're not going to have blood in
  110. 3:58the urine because it's nephrotic
  111. 3:59syndrome.
  112. 4:00So, you have to know which conditions
  113. 4:02have blood in urine, which conditions
  114. 4:03don't. So, I told you that in nephritic
  115. 4:05syndromes a moment ago.
  116. 4:06Nephrotic syndromes, membranous
  117. 4:08glomerulonephropathy.
  118. 4:10And you have
  119. 4:11uh renal amyloidosis, multiple myeloma,
  120. 4:13you've got diabetic glomerulosclerosis
  121. 4:16as you have here, focal segmental
  122. 4:18glomerulosclerosis, minimal change
  123. 4:20disease. So, these are highly nephrotic
  124. 4:21syndromes.
  125. 4:22So, some of you say, "Wait, what's going
  126. 4:25on with the
  127. 4:26uh PT/INR, ecchymoses? Can you explain
  128. 4:28that?" Okay, I'll get there in a second.
  129. 4:31Relax, all right? So, the the mild
  130. 4:34bilateral pedal edema, obviously that's
  131. 4:35from the nephrotic syndrome, decreased
  132. 4:37intravascular oncotic pressure cuz
  133. 4:39you're losing the albumin in the urine.
  134. 4:41So, you're just going to have
  135. 4:42extravasation, transudation into the
  136. 4:44interstitia. Now, choice C, wrong
  137. 4:46[ __ ] answer, normal platelet count
  138. 4:48150 to 450,000 per microliter. So,
  139. 4:51obviously this is thrombocytopenia.
  140. 4:53You need to know that in renal failure
  141. 4:55you can get something called uremic
  142. 4:57platelet dysfunction.
  143. 5:00Okay? I make clips on it, go through my
  144. 5:01YouTube. So, high BUN in the setting of
  145. 5:05renal failure can cause a qualitative
  146. 5:08dysfunction of platelets.
  147. 5:10It's not a quantitative issue, it's a
  148. 5:12qualitative issue.
  149. 5:14So, BUN causes platelets to malfunction.
  150. 5:18And you're going to have an increased
  151. 5:20bleeding time, up arrow bleeding time,
  152. 5:23but normal platelet count. Holy [ __ ]
  153. 5:25It's the first time you're hearing it,
  154. 5:27sounds weird, okay? Cuz if you get it as
  155. 5:28an arrow question, you see something
  156. 5:30like this, you'd be like, "Oh, like, you
  157. 5:32know, increased bleeding time and then
  158. 5:34decreased platelets." Wrong [ __ ]
  159. 5:36answer, okay? It's increased bleeding
  160. 5:38time, no change platelets. You're like,
  161. 5:39"Wait, why?"
  162. 5:41And you learn, okay, it's called uremic
  163. 5:42platelet dysfunction. It's a qualitative
  164. 5:44problem with platelets. Platelet count's
  165. 5:46not low, and you can that in renal
  166. 5:47failure.
  167. 5:48It's another reason why patients who
  168. 5:50have uh uremia,
  169. 5:52which is the the word that means renal
  170. 5:54failure,
  171. 5:55why patients who have uremia need
  172. 5:57dialysis if they're going into surgery
  173. 5:58in particular because they'll get
  174. 6:00excessive bleeding cuz their platelets
  175. 6:02aren't working properly.
  176. 6:04So,
  177. 6:05thrombocytopenia,
  178. 6:08wrong [ __ ] answer.
