I had attended the south zonal UG ENT quiz competition held on 4th December 2006 at Father Mullers Medical College, Mangalore. The questions asked were simply bamboozing ! Some questions for which I still don't know the answers are :

1. What is "False Bottom" in ENT also known as ?
2. What are ducts of Rivinus ?
3. Who was the pioneer in modern nasal endoscopes ?
4. What is ELSA ?
5. What is chondrodermatitis chronicus pinna also known as ?
6. What are retrofacial air cells also known as ?

These are only a few bouncers that I can remember. The actual quiz was also tough. The quiz master showed some CT scans and imagine what were the diagnosis ? Lipoma, Congenital hypoplasia of maxilla etc.

Needless to say, we got chucked out in the elimination round itself !
