The patient reports pain in the abdomen and back, and physical examination shows tenderness in the right flank. The patient's medical history is significant for a recent urinary tract infection that was treated with antibiotics. The laboratory tests show elevated levels of white blood cells and red blood cells in the urine. The patient is suspected to have a kidney stone, and the physician orders further investigations to determine the type of stone. Based on the clinical presentation, which of the following options is the most likely type of stone in this patient?

1. Calcium Oxalate
2. Uric Acid
3. Struvite
4. Cystine

Correct Answer 3: Struvite

Q2. A 55-year-old male presents with abdominal pain and distension at the gastric region associated with vomiting for 2 months. He has a 10-year-pack smoking history. To evaluate the underlying cause, endoscopy and CT of the abdomen and pelvis are recommended. The diagnosed gastric tumor invades muscularis propria, with the 4-5 regional lymph nodes involved and no distant metastasis. What is the TNM staging of gastric carcinoma in this case?

1. T2N3M0
2. T1N3M0
3. T2N2M0
4. T3N1M1

Q3. A 52-year-old male presents with gross hematuria, flank pain, and a palpable mass in the right upper quadrant. He has a history of heavy tobacco use and occupational exposure to chemicals. Physical examination reveals a non-tender, mobile mass in the right upper quadrant. Laboratory investigations show anaemia (haemoglobin: 10.5 g/dL), elevated liver enzymes (aspartate transaminase: 72 U/L; alanine transaminase: 58 U/L), and normal renal function. A computed tomography (CT) scan of the abdomen demonstrates a 10 cm solid mass in the right kidney with areas of necrosis and invasion into the renal vein. Biopsy of the mass is taken and histopathological examination reveals the following features: tubulopapillary pattern, often with cells taking a columnar pattern with a hobnail appearance, presence of mucinous material, and desmoplastic stroma. Based on this information, which of the following is the most likely diagnosis in this patient?

1. Renal cell carcinoma (clear cell type)
