Case Study Assignment (Part 4):

Directions: Below is a case study presentation of a patient with a condition covered in Chapter 9. Read the case study, and answer the questions below. Some questions will ask for information not included within this chapter. Use your textbook, a medical dictionary, or any other reference material you choose to answer these questions.

Patient is a 36-year-old businessman who was first seen in the office with complaints of feeling generally run down, ascites, intermittent diarrhea, and weight loss. He states he has been aware of these symptoms for approximately six months, but admits it may have been coming on for closer to one year. A screening test for mononucleosis was negative. A chest X-ray was negative for pneumonia or bronchitis, but did reveal enlarged nodules in the left thoracic cavity. In spite of a 35-pound weight loss, he has abdominal swelling and splenomegaly detected with abdominal palpation. Abdominal ultrasound confirmed generalized splenomegaly and a 3-cm tumor in the spleen. A lymphangiogram identified the thoracic nodules to be enlarged lymph nodes. Biopsies taken from the splenic tumor and thoracic lymph nodes confirmed the diagnosis of non-Hodgkin lymphoma. The patient underwent splenectomy for removal of the primary tumor. He will be referred to an oncologist to begin treatment for the lymphadenomas.
