BRS Path mistake!!!

[neurotrancer]

Am I losing my mind from studying too much?

in the newest edition of BRS Path, p. 212 clearly indicates parathyroid like activity of SCC of lung. Question 4 on p. 213 lists choice C as a wrong choice. While choice D is correct, that paraneoplastic syndrome of SCC is associated w/ elaboration of ACTH, and SIADH, there is also PTH like activity of lung SCC.

If any of you have ever seen the movie "white chicks"...I think I'm going to have a BF and I'm gonna write a letter!

Should have gone with Rapid Review Path !

Small Cell Carcinoma = SIADH

does SCC = small cell or sqamous cell?

PTH-like activity is noted with squamous cell carcinoma of the lung, not small cell carcinoma.


cheers

Yep, above posters nailed it. Squamos cell is associated with PTHrp while Small cell is associated with a number of hormones one of which is ADH but there are others.

what's the difference of the 2nd ed from the newest ead? any significant changes?

 

[Bones2008]

the format is the most significant thing. 2nd edition is written with bullet points, much like you'd see after a session of note-taking in lecture. 3rd edition is written in complete sentences. I personally stuck with 2nd edition for the past month of boards studying cuz I hate reading complete sentences if I don't have to...
