Saw a classic case of superior vena cava obstruction today. Patient had every single symptom and signs associated with the problem, including +ve pemberton's sign, distended veins, etc.
The thing is, I feel quite bad for feeling excited about the examination. The findings represent a grim outlook for the patient, as she has a massive mediastinal mass confirmed to be a high grade cancer.
Feel like i'm benefiting from her tragedy.
i feel the same :(
