The Conclusion Is…
The patient improved greatly with the morphine and had a fairly unremarkable KUB. A sono tech was called in, but the second physician had become busy and did not have an opportunity to reexamine her. Later, in the ultrasound suite, the patient complained of worsening abdominal and flank pain. The astute sono tech scanned her aorta and she was found to have an AAA.
Congratulations to Dr. Alshabahy, Dr. Fernandez, Dr. Hagadorn, Dr. Mayer, and Dr. Welsh — this week’s winners of Emergency Medicine Practice’s “Renal Calculi: Emergency Department Diagnosis And Treatment!” For an evidence-based discussion of flank pain associated with urinary stone disease, click here to view the article.
