    Since you were wondering why she's being seen by a doctor like House and had no workup done I believe its explained elsewhere in the series that patients he ends up seeing are patients who have been to a number of other specialists and none of them could work out the cause of a patient's symptoms.

    • @kroketbanana1792
      @kroketbanana1792 8 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      True and when those previous doctors did run tests, House’s usual procedure is to redo them because he assumes that labs/people screw up all the time. He also has tests rerun multiple times to make sure he didn’t get a false positive/negative result.

      Back when I was working as call-in technical support House also helped me get better diagnosing and repairing issues by adopting the attitude: "the person on the other line is lying to me, ask round about the questions that trip-up the person relieving info."
      The results where higher repair success rate and lower follow-up repairs then my colleges...with greater result of people leaving reviews referring to me as "yes that asshole fixed the problem but..."

    Dr. Malik, this was phenomenal! As a bit of an armchair physician, I always liked the House program: a technical medical whodunit but, OK, with lots of dramatic license and technical inaccuracies that sometimes even I could spot. I guess the over-the-top elements of House's character were part of why we all liked it. Your critique was really great for information, for calling out the BS and especially for the insensitivity of his bedside manner. I think today even House would not do what he did in the reveal. It shoes how far we have come in dealing with gender issues.

    Great episode to choose and terrific review. I haven’t seen this episode in years, but I remember thinking the team were boneheads for failing to discover this sooner. AIS is rare (although not quite as rare as House said-more like 1 in 20,000 or 2 in 50,000), and this had another zebra, but the lack of menarche at 15 should have made them investigate further. A simple question about pubic and axillary hair growth would have revealed it was sparse, and that should have tipped them off to do a pelvic US. I think it is done when House suspects cancer, but then it’s a goof to not have them observe the lack of uterus during the US.
    Okay, so there’d be no episode if this was totally realistic, haha. Heck, the worst mistake was not reporting the father for abuse!

      simplythebest286 If anyone is becoming truly like House, they’re going down a bad road. I do think some patients should manage their expectations with medical professionals. Some are not going to be warm and fuzzy but still can be a damn good clinician. Nonetheless, some doctors do need to do better with explaining things to patients and truly listening to the issues they bring up. It is a balance. A doctor certainly can improve on these things without experiencing burnout.

    I used to watch House all the time as a kid and this episode always really upsets me. I try to put a "positive spin" on it and tell myself this was the writing staff imposing their own personal views into the show, because realistically with how much House knows about medicine, and also how he basically doesn't give a shit about anyone or what they do, he would know this patient was medically classified as intersex and he wouldn't be suddenly and deliberately acting cruel simply based on undescended testes. Like seriously, for everyone who hasn't seen this episode, right after House heartlessly tells this patient of her diagnosis, he basically bullies her into a complete mental breakdown. She's only 15 and received this horrible news in what he made an intentionally traumatic way, she's in shock, crying, and he keeps referring to her by male pronouns and insisting she's male even when she says she's not, and he keeps "correcting" her until she eventually becomes so overwhelmed that she snaps and exposes her naked body to him, saying something along the lines of "I'm not a man, look at me! I'm a girl! I'm a girl!"
    And he just walks away. He just traumatized a 15 year old sexual incest victim because he wanted to make dumb edgy humor. Also like... His excuse for keeping the father around was in case the daughter lied and they needed more info. After he made his diagnosis he or his team should have immediately contacted DFS. Seriously, his team is just as heartless as he is with the things they let him get away with because "oh my god he's such a genius doctor except when he's costing the hospital millions of dollars because he runs so many tests it bankrupts his patients"
    Great video: educational and entertaining! I've been hooked on these "real doctor reacts to" type videos lately and it's great to find more channels :)

      But that is the point of House, he's an asshole, he doesn't care about what you the patient think, he's cruel because that's how he gets the truth from people, he's cruel, so you react cruel to him, it's a form of manipulation, and if the team had called to the police, they have never known that she had testicular cancer so she probably had died... But she could have died happily and that's better than to live with the truth... right? Ignorance is bliss

      The writers of this episode worked as hard as they could to characterize both the daughter and father as colossal jerks, I assume in part so that House could be a huge jerk in the end of the episode to shame them and put them in their place. Interestingly, the writers decided to tackle a 2nd intersex patient in another episode, also a child, and they handled it a bit more realistically, even though it's an extremely rare condition, but they still managed to get a few things wrong, and while House's ending line to the patient's parents was still quite mean-spirited, it was at least more called for. (Paraphrased) "You gave birth to a freak, but you should stop treating him like one."

    Every time I watch these medical reviews, the good doctors (such as yourself) say "no one does that" or "that is HORRIBLE bedside manner and totally inappropriate," and every time it's some crap a doctor is done to me. I've had doctors threaten me, hit on me, say they're going to give me a cath just to try to test if I was malingering, I immediately consented to the cath (because I was having something that seemed like a seizure, but who knows, they never gave me any answers, and I could not walk to the bathroom at all) --- and they STILL thought I was malingering anyway. And for what? Ativan? WHY? None of it makes sense. And I've been denied pain medication during miscarriage (horribly painful), all kinds of crazy crap. I've had a myriad of unbelievably bad experiences with doctors. Like, really bad.

    Thank you for reviewing this episode. I enjoy House very much even though he is often painfully offensive because it is fun, in a perverse way, to see just how offensive it is possible for a person to be. For me, part of the reason it is fun is that *everyone knows* just how offensive he is, and since it's fiction, and most of the people around him are strong enough to take it in stride, we're granted permission to laugh at it. What bugs me about this episode, though, is that there are probably a lot of people in the audience who are *not* aware of just how truly awful it is for House to give the patient the news that she has CAIS in the way he does. As you explain, people with CAIS generally have female external genitalia and generally identify as female even though they are chromosomally male; there is absolutely no reason for this patient not to continue identifying as female after this diagnosis, but House insists on referring to her with masculine pronouns and calling her a man. She's a child! In my mind, this crosses the (rather fuzzy) line from offensive into abusive, and it's disappointing that the writers just played this for shock value and didn't at least find a way to give him some pushback. (I also agree with other commenters that the gang should have guessed CAIS sooner. Didn't their scans reveal how underdeveloped her uterus was?)

      As a complete fictional environment you can also consider he's attacking the father more than the child with presenting the information in this matter, like a "So you were confortable having sex with your daughter, but are you comfortable with having sex with your son?" which of course shouldn't be consider on an attack on homosexuality but more of throwing what sticks to the child abuser.

    Hi, I have enjoyed some of your videos even tho I am not a medical student. I just find medicine interesting. That said. I’m a former heroin addict. And I have heard before of rapid detox under anesthesia. A quick google search did find some results and studies of using agonist medications while patients were under general anesthesia for some hours. However it doesn’t seem to be very common practice of course. Are you saying it is never done, ever? Did they figure out it wasn’t an effective method, or is it just too risky or expensive compared to other more common detoxification protocols? Also this episode has to be over a decade old at this point, is it possible it was more common then?

I'm a 27 year old Male who used to wake frequently with morning wood,and here lately I haven't been. I'm not wetting the bed and I'm not waking up in the middle of the night to urinate. Is this something in your professional medical opinion I should be worried about? Or should I just not worry about it, and wait to see if it comes back? And if it doesn't come back in your professional medical opinion should I consult an urologist to make sure everything is in working order?

If you are on doctor number four or five then you are the problem but you should be able to find a good for you doctor in one or two tries.

If they’re one of the providers who already haven’t taken this seriously, I’d try again. I know it’s hard when a health issue hasn’t been addressed properly, but try to discuss it calmly and without bringing attitude to the appointment.
      If you’re still blown off, don’t hesitate to seek a second opinion with a primary care provider. They can get to the bottom of this or refer you to a better urologist who can. Best of luck.

    I dont know even 1/10th the stuff about medical science that you know but I think you are being wilfully dense about the show. A lot of your criticisms are explained in the show. This show is a an adapatation of Sherlock Holmes but in a medical context.
    1. Why is House so rude? Doctors are not supposed to behave that way.
    1. Yes doctors are not supposed to be rude but who says House is a usual doctor who does everything the way things are supposed to be done. His character is written to be an arrogant mean jerk who is not interested in treating patients but solving complex mysteries. Who does that remind you of? Sherlock Holmes.
    2. Why does House look for Zebras (or the most out there unlikely explanation) instead of a common sense very likely common explanation?
    2. Because it is the premise of the show that House only gets those cases which are out of the norm. In the show, all the cases that House gets have already gone through multiple doctors. Which means all the likliest options have already been ruled out by all the previous doctors. So the likely answer might be common cold but guess what...common cold has already been ruled out by previous doctors. If all the likliest possibilities have already been ruled out, then whatever remains, no matter how improbable, must be the truth. Who does that remind u of? Sherlock Holmes. Didnt Sherlock also deal with unlikely murder mysteries that would, more often than not, never happen in real life...
    3. Why does he break into people's houses? That is so inappropriate.
    3. Because he is an inappropriate person according to unconventional
    morality. He doesnt respect peoples privacy (yes you should). He also believes that people are fundamentally liars (call me a cynic but that is true). He often finds out information which the patients wouldnt tell anyone out of sheer embarassment or maybe revealing that information would expose them to criminal liability.
    4. Why does he know random facts?
    4. He is a genius. He knows random facts for the same reason Sherlock knew random facts which most people wouldnt know.
    It is easy to criticise something without knowing proper context. As a doctor, u should understand that.

MINORS can't consent. HE IS THE ADULT. END OF STORY. Is it possible that she really did seduce her dad, knowing full well what she was doing, and that it was out of the blue without her dad ever making gross comments about sex, her body, giving her creepy looks, and touching her weirdly?
