[Case Report] 32yo with abdominal pain two years after pancreas-kidney transplant
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
This case report has been developed by Trainees, to assist their peers with preparation of long-case presentations. It is not a fully-vetted Education resource but a “passion project” from editors of the Pomegranate Health podcasts.
The case is that of a 32-year-old woman presenting with constant and dull abdominal pain that had been sudden in onset. The pain is accompanied by nausea and vomiting but bowel habits were unchanged. The patient has a history of type 1 diabetes and a simultaneous pancreas-kidney transplant two years prior to the presentation. There is no history of rejection of pancreatitis and serum creatinine appears normal.
The attending nephrologist walks through the elimination of differential diagnoses typical of any patient and also of particular relevance to a transplant patient.
Guests
