I took advanced vertebrate biology courses in undergrad, completed medical school, have read umpteen books on evolution, vertebrate anatomy and biology, and was today years old when I discovered this!

Does atelectasis cause post-operative fever?

I occasionally hear atelectasis listed in the differential diagnosis for early post-op fever (EPF) but this idea has never made much physiologic sense to me.

Let's explore this question in the following #tweetorial.

After 10 years of post-secondary education, I will continue my training as a physician in BC. Unfortunately, this isn't the case for many equally trained and more than qualified medical students who are victims of an unsustainable system. #nodocsleftbehind @melaniejmark

A reminder to always keep a differential, even in a diagnostic specialty like Pathology. A lesson I keep relearning!

Clinical history helps us in #Dermpath but it can also lead us astray sometimes. Here’s a CLL patient with round blue cells in dermis. Check out that CK20... it isn’t CLL but rather MERKEL cell! 😱 scary case by Alejandro Gru. #ASDP18 #dermatology #pathology #hemepath
