My short case was of nephrotic syndrome.The pt. had C/O generalized edema.
Sir asked everything from D/D ,investigations and treatment.he asked the doses of steroids specifically
My short case was of facial palsy. I took a round of the ward on the morning of the ward test so I knew the pt. has signs of facial palsy.Sir simple asked me to start the GPE. Positive findings were loss of naso-labial fold,inability to close eyes completely, and to wrinkle the forehead  and cervical swelling ( likely to be cervical Lymph nodes,matted so the diagnosis was T.B).He asked for causes of facial palsy.I said he probably has tuberculous meningitis that caused facial palsy.
