HEENT ROSH REVIEW QUESTIONS
AND ANSWERS | 100% PASS
A 28-year-old woman presents with intense pain, tearing, and ocular foreign body
sensation in both eyes that began yesterday. She denies any trauma, past medical
problems, or contact lens use and reports that she works as ski patrol for a loca...
short-acting cycloplegic agent for pain management. The use of ophthalmic antibiotics
has not been shown to improve healing. While oral pain medications are often needed,
topical anesthetics should be avoided due to an increased risk of corneal ulceration.
What is episcleritis and how is it caused? - Answer✔️✔️-Episcleritis (B) is a common,
benign inflammatory condition of the episclera and most often occurs in young adults. It
is usually idiopathic but may be associated with systemic conditions such as diabetes
mellitus, systemic lupus erythematosus, rheumatoid arthritis, and inflammatory bowel
disease. Patients typically complain of a foreign body sensation, mild pain, photophobia,
and lacrimation. The condition is usually self-limiting.
What is iritis? - Answer✔️✔️-Iritis (C), also known as anterior uveitis, is an inflammation
of the anterior portions of the uvea (iris, ciliary body, and choroid). It is often idiopathic
but may be associated with systemic diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis, sarcoidosis,
Reiter syndrome, and tuberculosis.
How do cycloplegics work? - Answer✔️✔️-They relax ciliary muscle spasm and prevent
contraction of the iris, reducing pupillary photoresponse.
What is leukoplakia? - Answer✔️✔️-Leukoplakia is a premalignant white patch or plaque
that may eventually progress to an ulcer or mass. It is a pre-malignant oral lesion. The
biggest risk factors are tobacco and alcohol use.
If oral leukoplakia is persistent for more than 2 weeks what is required? - Answer✔️✔️-If
oral leukoplakia persists for more than 2 weeks, biopsy and treatment is required.
What is the 5-year survival rate for oral cancer? - Answer✔️✔️-50-55%.
