3. A practical problem for every physician
for PGs also
Some cases are very tough– A gujarathy lady
Different hospitals(5+3) fever unrelenting weight
loss / 8 months/ seen by GS in my absence
nofindings/ Next week Bilateral 6 th N palsy
Diagnosis?
A theory question on approach to PUO can be
expected
6. In a fever case many a time we have no idea what
is going to happen at the end

10. Data from discharge summary
65 yr old Mr Devan admitted to a High Tech Hospital
at our Cosmopolitan city of fever aches and pains
over the joints and headache of 2 months duration
duration.
Evaluated in 3 different hospitals prior to that
admission
Since fever continued they approached the high tech
well equipped hospital
11. Fever was perceived day and night
It varied from 100degree F to 102degree F
No rigor Chills
No urinary symptoms, respiratory symptoms ,
chest pain
Complained of body ache athralgia of various joints
He complained of intermittent headache for > 2
months
12. Headache was diffuse in nature felt all over the
head
Waxing and waning
Not infrequently pt awakened by head ache
Most of the time he suffered from the ache
subsiding with paracetamol
He never vomited
Combing his hair was uneventful
13. No change in the headache by posture , turning in
bed or by stooping down
There were no cranial nerve symptoms, no
rhinorrhoea
No visual disturbance/no redness of eyes
No symptoms to suggest long tract symptoms
No cardiac, respiratory, Urinary symptoms
14. Appetite was dull
Pt lost 5 Kg weight in the last 3 months
Was constipated
15. General examination Non contributory
CVS
RS
GIT
Nervous system
Testicles
NAD
16. Total duration nearly 2months
Last 15 days in High tech hospital
All possible investigations done meticulously and
scientifically and in orderly manner
25. Started Emperically on Piperacillin Tazobactum+
Doxy
Fever and head ache contd during hospital stay
PET Scan done noncontributory
Pt had relief of fever for 3 days and got discharged
Suggestion to follow up
Fever reappeared after few days
26. Pt consulted a pulmonologist
He suggested ATT provisionally.
The patient was not happy to receive a label of
tuberculosis
27. He was brought by relatives to another physician
XYZ
28. Fever continued
Nearly two months
Fever unabated
Many investigations repeated drawn blank
Pt got discharged
LFT rpt showed Elevated Alkaline Phosphatase
30. Too huge topic
Will go through what general clinical examination
should be done and their significance
31. Salient points from discharge summary
Fever Headache several weeks
Headache no vomiting
Anaemia
Raised ESR CRP
Alkaline phosphatase high
Cultures negative
32. Fever headache new onset
persistent daily headache
ESR high CRP high USG normal
No neck stiffness Alkaline phosphatase
high
CT Thorax N CT Abdomen
N
No focal findings in any
system
Normochromic
normocytic Shift to left--
blood picture
MRI Brain N
Repeated cultures negative PET Scan noncontributory
LP normal
All cultures negative
37. Difficult case how they would have done it
As physician
Huge topic
Requires more than 3 hrs
Restricting to History & physical examination and
Abnormalities in investigations All minimal
43. Detailed history
Meticulous history to be taken
Contact with fever cases
Animals birds
Travel
Sexual history / multiple partners/ protected sex
49. Pt had almost daily headache with fever
The headache is daily happening
Something similar to NDPH
NDPH can be due to any infection
50.
51.
52. What are the causes of New onset Daily
Persistent Headache? NDPH
53. NDPH occurs due to causes like
intracranial tumours
Benign intracranial
Hypertension
subdural haematoma
Chronic meningitis
Medication overuse
headache
Persistent CSF leak(
CSF Hypotension)
Cerebral venous
thrombosis
Post traumatic
headache
54. Other causes of NDPH
Epstein-Barr virus / CMV
Salmonella.
E. coli.
Dengue fever.
COVID-19.
Meningitis or encephalitis
Any infection
55. Since the patient is running fever intracranial
tumour. SDH, BIH,CSF hypotension , Subarachnoid
Haemorrhage , Cerebral venous thrombosis are
unlikely
Left with infections that can cause headache
Severe headache + fever- meningitis to be ruled
out
MRI no meningeal enhancement CSF normal
56. Meningitis ruled out
Left with infections all blood cultures were negative
Pt has been given provisionally broad spectrum
covering Gram positive gram negative and aerobic
and anaerobic infections
57. Though Broadspectrum antibiotics given
Abscesses somewhere cant be ruled out
Antibiotics may not penetrate
Fever was continuing
Abscess was ruled out as PET scan did not show
any abscess
58.
59. Why Head to foot examination?
Any abnormality to be sought, Picked up and
focused clinically
No stone unturned
Simple findings can lead to diagnosis
We should not trivialise any abnormality even in
this high tech era
60. Head to foot Examn Scalp
Scalp -Palpate whole scalp running your finger
any swellings/
combing if necessary
Superficial temporal artery
Look for any eschar
Any skin ulceration
Any nodule --- Sarcoidosis ( by biopsy)
61.
62. Learning points
Scrub typhus is difficult to diagnose as the presentation is very
non-specific. An eschar at the site of bite is pathognomic and
the single most useful diagnostic clue.
Eschar is painless, non-itching lesion and is common in
warm damp areas of body where skin surfaces meet or
clothes bind (perineum, groin and axilla). It develops
following the bite of mites which is also painless. Hence, though
it can clinch the diagnosis, it often goes unnoticed.
63. Figure 1.
(A) Three days from symptom onset (SE03): central yellowish vesicle with mild whitish scale, and peripheral erythematous patch. (B) SE05: central vesicle turned into brown to black-
colored crusts and scales are increased. (C) SE06: formation of typical eschar lesion having central black crusts and conspicuous erythematous patch with overlaying scale. (D) SE08:
well-established eschar composed of three concentric components; innermost black crust outlined by inner scaly line, middle erythematous patch, and outermost whitish scaly layer.
(E) SE14: shrinkage of central crusts and diminished peripheral scale. (F) SE17: central crust completely disappeared, and changed into central scar-like whitish area with peripheral
erythematous area showing prominent vascular pattern. (G) SE20: dull reddish-brown hyperpigmentation.

you think may be useful to help us to solve the
problem
111. Head to foot --- Back Gluteal area
Story of Mundakkayam lady investigated elsewhere
no cause found
sent to medical college
Thoroughly investigated with liver biopsy Bone
marrow – All unrewarding

gluteal region for tenderness daily
After 3 weeks of hospital stay HS informed me of
tenderness on the buttock
112. Head to foot --- Back Gluteal area

134. ?
Left shift of granulocytes (ie, abundant band forms,
metamyelocytes, myelocytes) may be due to severe
infection/sepsis or chronic myeloid leukemia (CML),
while the presence of significant number of myeloid blasts
suggests acute myeloid leukemia (AML)
occasionally, blasts can be seen with extreme
inflammation/bone marrow stimulation.
135. All the above categories require consideration

167. Alkaline phosphatase is the most important single
laboratory test; may be elevated in
temporal arteritis,
hypernephroma,
thyroiditis,
tuberculosis.
168.
169.
170. Of the NIIDs,
adult-onset Still’s disease,
large-vessel vasculitis,
polymyalgia rheumatica,
systemic lupus erythematodus (SLE), a
sarcoidosis
are common diagnoses in patients with FUO.
171. On alkaline phosphatase
Alkaline phosphatase (ALP) is produced mainly in the liver (from the hepatocyte canalicular
membrane with a significantly lesser contribution from the biliary epithelium) but
is also found in abundance in the bone and in smaller quantities in the intestines, kidneys, and
white blood cells.
Levels are physiologically higher in childhood, associated with bone growth, and in pregnancy
due to placental production.
Pathologically increased levels occur mainly in bone disease
(e.g., metastatic bone disease and bone fractures)
And
cholestatic liver disease—for example, primary biliary cholangitis
(PBC), primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC), common bile
duct obstruction, intrahepatic duct obstruction (metastases),
and drug-induced cholestasis
Right heart failure( cholestasis elevated ALP and /or Billirubin)
