Question 4 of 5
Which of the following subtypes of Hodgkin’s lymphoma is common in young women and has good prognosis?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: Nodular sclerosis (A) is the most common Hodgkin’s lymphoma subtype, often affecting young women, with a good prognosis due to its responsiveness to therapy and characteristic Reed-Sternberg cells in a sclerotic background. Mixed cellularity (B) affects older males, lymphocyte predominance (C) is rare but favorable, lymphocyte depletion (D) is aggressive, and lymphocyte-rich (E) is less specific—nodular sclerosis fits best.
Question 5 of 5
A 50 year old male who had frequent infections of his upper respiratory tract manifested with subcutaneous petechiae over his arms and legs. Investigations revealed low haemoglobin and a dry tap marrow. The most likely condition the patient is suffering from
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: Frequent infections, petechiae, low hemoglobin, and a dry tap marrow (no aspirate) indicate aplastic anemia (D), a pancytopenia from bone marrow failure. Iron deficiency (A) causes microcytic anemia without marrow failure, megaloblastic (B) is macrocytic, hemolytic (C) shows high reticulocytes, and thalassemia (E) isn’t pancytopenic—aplastic anemia fits all findings.
