Answer to Question 1

D
Epididymitis, inflammation of the epididymis, can be caused by infectious conditions such as gonorrhea, mumps, or chlamydia, or by sterile inflammation resulting from injury. Manifestations include sudden, severe scrotal pain and swelling, fever, dysuria, and pyuria; if untreated, necrosis of testicular tissue, septicemia, and death may occur.

Answer to Question 2

B
Medical-surgical management involves insertion of a chest tube to drain air and fluid from the pleural space using a closed chest drainage system. The underwater seal for a thoracotomy tube prevents the negative pressure within the pleural space from pulling more air in through the chest tube.
