Case of Anasarca


A case of anasarca in a 48 year old lady which has been a diagnostic puzzle in the medical ward was discussed at the clinical case conference at the doctors Lounge today. Most of the doctors attended the session including the medical superintendent.Diagnostic possibilities were discussed and further course of investigating this patient was outlined.


It was obviously not a straightforward case of kidney , liver or a cardiac disease. Appeared more like a disorder with multisystem involvement.
