Journal Title: Journal of Evolution of Medical and Dental Sciences - Year 2017, Vol 6, Issue 69
Abstract
A 12-year-old female child named Avanika Singh got admitted in our institute with chief complaints of abdominal pain for 3 weeks and haematemesis for 1 week duration. She attained menarche in July 2016, following which she gave history of menorrhagia and was treated with hormonal pills for last week. CLINICAL DIAGNOSIS On examination, she was found to be afebrile with severe pallor and stable parameters. On systemic examination, she was found to have hepatomegaly with severe tenderness. No icterus or pedal oedema noted. Initial investigations revealed severe anaemia with the haemoglobin of 7 gm%. Other blood parameters are unremarkable. Since she was complaining of severe abdominal pain, the treating physician elsewhere advised for a CT scan of abdomen which revealed hepatomegaly with multiple hypodense lesions in the liver and minimal free fluid in abdomen. She was advised admission in our hospital for further evaluation.
