Prof.MAGDY ZIDAN( who is responsible for making the questions for previous round)

By his own approach:


Clinical round= 100marks.devided into 2:

Clinical cases=50m

Diagnostic=50m( CBC,ABG,Xray)


Clinical cases ( into 4 main questions)


1.auscultation ( dse that can be directly diagnose by auscultation)


· Heart (rheumatic heart= MR,AR), congenital( VSD,TOF)

· Chest. Just I dse ; pneumonia( u will be searching for bronchial breathing)


2.present history( dse that can directly diagnose by the present history of the patient)


· AGN ( by red urine)

· Nephritic syndrome( gen edema; anasarca)

· B.A ( wheezes)

· Acute broncholitis

· Whooping cough( characteristic cough)


3.gen.examination ( cases diagnosed directly from special features)


· Specific features: cerebral palsy,down syndrome,protein calori malnutrition(PCM),cretinism.

· Face: thalesmia,down syndrome.hydrocephalus,PCM,cretinism

· Pallor+ecchymosis+purpura: acute leukemia,aplastic anemia,idiopathic thrombolytic purpura( ITP)


4.palpation for enlarged organ n abd. Mass
