Hello, med students. My name is Zach Olson, and thank you for downloading this week's

episode of the EM Clerkship Podcast. Bear with me if there's a little bit of background noise,

there's some construction going on around me today, but we're going to record anyways.

This week, I need to clarify a few things.

I promise we'll cover a super abbreviated approach to this at the end, but today, specifically,

we need to talk about gallbladder stuff. We need to talk terms. We need to talk diagnoses,

because a lot of you are getting really confused by this, as I did.

And I want you to sound smart, not dumb. When your patient has right upper quadrant pain, I want you to give a differential diagnosis that shows off your knowledge base to the attending.

I've even had attendings get these terms confused before. They don't even realize it sometimes.

When you say things correctly, though, you just automatically sound well read, and that is one of

your goals on the clerkship. So today we're going to talk about the

five right upper quadrant diagnoses that you need to know, specifically five billiary

diagnoses. Colylythiasis and biliary colic. Colisestitis, colidoc, colidocytitis, colidocytitis, and gallstone pancreatitis.

Colylythiasis with episodes of biliary colic, colicestitis, colidoc, colidic, colidic, colidic, coliocytitis, colidocytis, coliocytitis, and gallstone pancreatitis.

So let's go through this.

First, coli lithiasis.

Lithiasis means stone.

So gallstones.

15% of people have coli litheisis.

It's incredibly, incredibly common.

And 1% of the people that have this will have issues with them every year.

You've probably heard of the phrase, fat, fertile, 40, female.
