Presenter: Angela YeeHematology Case 1: OverviewHistoryPhysical ExaminationLab Investigations: results and interpretationAssessment: DDx and most likely DxManagementPrognosis and Patient education

Presenter: Angela YeeHistory20 year old female complains of worsening fatigue over the last week or so, with associated sore throat and headaches. She also reports occasional fever and chills. She normally runs 3 miles per day, which she has been unable to do since the onset of symptoms.

Presenter: Angela Yee

Additional Relevant History QuestionsWhen did her symptoms begin and has she had similar symptoms previously?Does she have generalized or localized pain/discomfort?Are menstrual periods normal and regular? Is she taking any medication?Is she up to date with her immunizations?Has she had a recent hospitalizations?What is her past medical, family and social history?Has she been in contact with anyone that is/has been sick?Has she travelled outside the country in the past 6 mos?

Presenter: Nipuni RanepuraPhysical ExamErythema of the throat and tonsillar pillars. Cervical lymph nodes are swollen bilaterally, tender and mobile.

Presenter: Angela Yee

Laboratory InvestigationsRBC 5.24 x 1012/L Hgb 153 g/L Hct 46.2 % MCV 87.9 fL MCHC 332 g/L RDW 0.121 WBC 12.8 x 109/LNeutrophils 24 % Leukocytes 73% Monocytes 0% Eosinophils 3% Basophils 0% PLT 333 x 109/L Heterophil antibody screen positive

Blood smear analysisnormocytic, normochromic red blood cells.White blood cells are large with smudged chromatin pattern and reactive lymphocytes.Platelet morphology is normal

Presenter: Maria Reyes Diaz Interpretation of Lab Results(key findings)Leukocytosis and Lymphocytosis: can indicate infection Neutropenia: different etiologies Monocytopenia: rare but can occur with autoimmune disorders or hairy cell leukemia Positive Heterophile Test: Sensitive and specific test for detecting heterophile antibodies Reactive Lymphocytes/ atypical lymphocytes common in some viral infections (i.e EBV and CMV)

Large WBC with smudged chromatin pattern: only significant when found in abundance

Presenter: Maria Reyes Diaz

Differential Diagnosis with brief explanation of rationaleInfectious mononucleosisRubellaStreptococcal PharyngitisAcute Herpetic Pharyngotonsillitis ToxoplasmosisHIV

Presenter: Hemant Sharma

Most Likely Diagnosis with brief explanation of rationaleThe patient is a 20 yr old female presenting with common symptoms of Infectious Mononucleosis. She presents with malaise, headache, fever, chills, sore throat and lymphadenopathy. Lab results further support the diagnosis of Infectious Mononucleosis. Results were positive for leukocytosis, neutropenia, monocytopenia, and a positive heterophile test which is often a sign of mononucleosis. Worsening symptoms over the period of one week and the absence of other cold symptoms make these findings suspicious for Infectious Mononucleosis.

Presenter: Nipuni RanepuraPathophysiology Transmitted through bodily secretions Virus infects B-lymphocytes B-lymphocytes target oropharynx, salivary glands, and the lymphoid cells Activation of T-cells against the B-lymphocytes control infected B-lymphocyte proliferation Infected B-lymphocytes enter bloodstream to spleen, liver, and peripheral lymph nodes (clinical presentation) Initiation of acute infection and humoral immunity; EBV structural proteins used to diagnose EBV Normal T-lymphocyte function Abnormal/ineffective T-lymphocyte function

Presenter: Angela Yee

Management There is no treatment to completely eradicate the virus Acetaminophen or NSAIDsTherapy is focused on management of symptomsCorticosteroids: if complicated IM Acyclovir: Antiviral, not very effective not used Antibiotics are NOT EFFECTIVE- amoxicillin & ampicillin are contraindicatedRestMono causes extreme fatigue therefore adequate rest is important especially early in the infection process **Avoid strenuous physical activity for at least 3 weeksPatients with IM are at risk for splenic rupture Splenic rupture requires surgical intervention

Presenter: Maria Reyes Diaz Prognosis & Patient EducationMononucleosis is generally a self-limiting disease and infection typically subsides within 2 to 4 weeks. Most people recover without any permanent health consequences. Complete recovery may take months Complications are rare but life threatening, often due to splenic rupture. Patient to refrain from strenuous physical activity for first 3 weeksPatient should avoid exposing other people to their body secretions because EBV remains viable in patients with EBV infectious mononucleosis for months. Although complete isolation is not required the patient is instructed to still take precautions such as; Avoid sharing drinking glasses or utensils and avoid kissing.
