Long case ;final practical examination  

This is online E log book to discuss our patient's deidentified health data shared after taking his/her guardian signed informed consent. Here we discuss our individual patient's problems through series of inputs from available global online community of experts with an aim to solve the patient's clinical problems with collective current best evidence based inputs. This E log book also reflects my patient centered online learning portfolio and your valuble inputs on the comment box is welcome.

I have been given this case to solve in an attempt to understand the topic of patient clinical data analysis to develop my competency in reading and comprehending clinical data including history, clinical findings, investigations, and come up with diagnosis and treatment plan.
