Diagnosis of colorectal polyps used to be a rare event, but nowadays its frequency is increasing because of the ever-increasing use of colonoscopy for evaluation of patients. So in my opinion learning about the different types of polyps and refreshing this topic can help us sooner than we expect.

  Bronchiectasis is a topic that is always mentioned as a differential diagnosis of many pulmonary diseases, but it rarely is the diagnosis. This is because the incidence of bronchiectasis has not only decreased, but its diagnosis isn't very easy to catch.

  I was always intrigued as to how a case of neonatal jaundice could have gone on so long without a diagnosis. So in this episode I hope to review the topic and maybe help any of you who have some doubts about the topic so these cases become as rare as smallpox.

Inflammatory bowel disease is actually the general description for two diseases:

1) Crohn's disease
2) Ulcerative Colitis

Clinically both diseases are similar in some respects and I imagine that in the past they were grouped together because of these clinical similarities. But recent studies have found that both actually have similar genetic markers and even similar response to certain therapies. So it seems they were far more related than initially thought.
