I am for India. Fortunately or unfortunately 40-50 seconds in history i suspected scurvy.. It can be a tricky diagnosis.. There is so much pain due to bone changes, that sometimes kids present with pseudo-paralysis. A very good and needed video specially who work in high end hospitals. It is also common in Cancer patients

Me too sir.. i am also from india.. i am also suspected initially as scurvy only...

The "picky eating" had me thinking what it could be...and i was surprised to see that it was scurvy. A thorough Anamnesis can go a long way, but understandable, since nowadays everything is fast...Amazing case! Thanks!

Scurvy must definitely be considered as a differential diagnosis of musculoskeletal symptoms in children with developmental needs. Especially if the child has picky eating, where child avoids fruits and vegetables

Before going through all those invasive procedure, a simple nutritional assessment would have done it. I think more than the diagnosis, the important takeaway for video is to have in depth, detailed history to exclude all possible differentials. Very much grateful for this wonderful presentation 🙏🙏

I love my teacher ...dr.Bhose ❤

To me the possibility of scurvy felt possible from the very beginning. I and many other people with ASD were far too close to being in the same position

Very interesting case. Thanks!

No offense but those were highly invasive procedures, and took way too long to come to that diagnosis. I don't see this as a win for medicine. Then again, a good reminder on what the child's diet consisted of was missed during the case history. A simple mistake.

Thank you for reminding , nutritional deficiencies are very common in new generation, maybe attributable to altered dietary habits .

Very interesting case- thank you so much for highlighting the occurrence of Vit C deficiency even in resource rich settings. However, scurvy should have been in the differential from the beginning and an empiric trial of vitamin C would have spared this child from going through so many expensive and painful investigations. With the advent of iOmics and precision medicine , treatment for even common conditions is likely to get extremely expensive. Maybe case discussions in the future should also pause after H&P, and brainstorm possible treatment options if you had nothing further to go upon- ie. no further information from expensive investigations
