Medical Mystery Solved – The Road Less Traveled | NEJM
This Double Take video from the New England Journal of Medicine presents the
real-life case of a woman with progressive chest pain after a trip to Puerto
Rico, where she spent time exploring local national parks and caves. Viewers
are guided through the differential diagnosis of the patient’s presentation and
how it evolves with the diagnostic evaluation, culminating in the patient’s final
diagnosis and clinical course.
For further reading, the following Interactive Medical Case, referenced in the
video, is available at https://www.nejm.org/doi/full/10.1056... : The Road Less Traveled (Romano et al., in the
September 21, 2017, issue of the Journal).
The New England Journal of Medicine is the world’s leading general medical
journal. Continuously published for over 200 years, NEJM publishes
