Posted onQ) True about management of hemangioma liver a) All hemangioma more than 10 cm should be resected b) OCPs and pregnancy should be avoided in young females as there is risk of rupture c) Arterial embolization should be routinely done in large hemangiomas d) If surgery is decided hemangioma located at the periphery should be enucleated Ans)d Whatever the size there is no role of resection for asymptomatic hemangioma.

Posted onQ ) A 25 year old male brought to the hospital after being involved in a road traffic accident that occurred 50 minutes ago.

The paramedics administered 2 litres of normal saline in the ambulance and in the emergency department his BP is 110/70 with a pulse rate of 90/min. He has tenderness in Left upper quadrant abdomen and USG reveals perisplenic fluid. Next step is to : a) Take him for exploratory laparotomy b) Shift him to ICU and observe c) Do a CT scan of the abdomen d) Put in a laparoscope and assess Answer c This Patient has a splenic injury due to blunt trauma abdomen.The immediate management depends on grade of splenic injury and response to IV Fluids.
