Answer to Question 1

ANS: B
The icteric phase is manifested by jaundice, dark urine, and clay-colored stools. The liver is en-larged, smooth, and tender, and percussion causes pain. Fatigue and vomiting occur during the prodromal stage. Resolution occurs in the recovery phase. Fulminant liver failure does not involve icterus.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B
Portal hypertension occurs secondarily to cirrhosis of the liver. Portal hypertension is not associ-ated with thrombosis of the spleen, left ventricular failure, or renal stenosis.
