  1. 4 year old boy comes in with painful, swollen R ankle after having fallen off of a swing 6 hours previously, landing on his knee. No history of bruising; no prior history of ER visits. Knee is markedly swollen & painful to the touch. Family history positive for a maternal uncle with mild hemophilia A; mother has never been tested. X-rays of knee show joint effusion but no other fractures.

  2. 45 year old woman admitted for hysterectomy for menorrhagia and fibroid tumors. History reveals that she has never had surgery or tooth extractions in the past, but that she has a brother with factor XI deficiency, who recently won a large lawsuit after having had a major postoperative bleed. His preop aPTT was prolonged, but it was missed until post-op.

  3. 60 year old man, 2 weeks post-op for Bilroth II for peptic ulcer disease, complicated by episode of septic shock 4 days post-op, now oozing from wound site. Has been on broad-spectrum antibiotics x 10 days; no PO intake & no TPN x 2 weeks.

  4. 93 year old woman who comes in with a spontaneous soft tissue bleed into the R side of her neck and face. NO past history of bleeding; no history of falling. Initial evaluation in ER reveals a 2x3 cm lesion on the L side of her face, suspicious for a squamous cell tumor, NOT connected in any way to the soft tissue bleed on the R side. Admitted to ENT service for removal of that lesion. • Meds - None

  5. 40 year old man, c/o severe pain & swelling of R knee. Patient has family history of gout, & saw rheumatologist, who tapped the knee, getting straw colored fluid out.

Pain initially subsided, but is now much worse, with severe swelling. Retap of knee reveals blood.
