I am sorry, but does Dr. Guido Fanconi need two major (and completely separate and unrelated) diseases named after him? No, no he does not. That is greedy. I don't care if he was a brilliant clinician as well as hospital administrator and discovered like eleven separate syndromes - one eponym should be more than satisfactory.

so smug |
And noOooo this post is not out of bitterness because an attending told me to read about Fanconi Anemia and I accidentally read about Fanconi Syndrome, and then knew close to nothing about Fanconi Anemia the next day.
....Ok, so maybe it's a teeny tiny bit out of bitterness. Geeeeze. Shut up.
LOL this made me laugh. I remember getting a uworld or kaplan question wrong because of this. Hopefully the attending was understanding?
ReplyDeleteYeah it turned out fine, I just felt kind of silly. Oh well...
