Felicia, a medical student, arrived late to a surgery in which she was to observe the removal of an extensive abscess from the fat around a patient’s kidney. Felicia was startled to find the surgical team working to reinflate the patient’s lung and to remove air from the pleural cavity. How could renal surgery lead to such events?
A 7 years old Italian-born female fell, unconscious, but recovered quickly. This was followed by a week of vomiting. One month later she developed headaches, intermittent drowsiness, and convulsions. She presented to an Emergency Room, where physical examination showed neck stiffness, hyperactive knee jerks, a positive Kernig sign and a Babinski reflex. The patient went into a deep coma with occasional involuntary motions. She died two days later.
