Overview Inflammatory bowel disease is a common condition. It is divided into two types: Crohn disease and Ulcerative colitis. Both these condition differ in pathology, progression and complication, but they do share a lot similar characteristics as well. Colitis: Inflammation of the colon, which may be due to infectious, autoimmune, ischemic, or idiopathic causes. Inflammatory…

Overview Overweight and obesity are common worldwide and are associated with many conditions, particularly diabetes, hypertension and dyslipidemia. Overweight and obesity are defined as a moral or excessive fat accusation that presents a risk to health Obesity is now dramatically on the rise in low and middle-income countries. Management should include diet, physical activity, and…
View topic ↗Polyarteritis Nodosa
Overview Polyarteritis Nodosa (PAN) is a necrotising vasculitis that affects medium-sized muscular arteries, leading to transmural inflammation, fibrinoid necrosis, and subsequent aneurysm formation or ischemia. It does not involve arterioles, capillaries, or venules, and is not associated with ANCA. PAN can affect any organ except the lungs. It typically presents in middle-aged adults, more commonly…
View topic ↗Polymyalgia Rheumatica (PMR)
Overview Polymyalgia rheumatica is a common inflammatory condition affecting older adults, typically over 50 years of age, characterised by pain and stiffness in the shoulder and pelvic girdles. It is strongly associated with elevated inflammatory markers and responds dramatically to low-dose corticosteroids. PMR is a clinical diagnosis and can mimic other rheumatic or non-rheumatic disorders.…
View topic ↗Severe Combined Immunodeficiency (SCID)
Overview Severe combined immunodeficiency (SCID) is the most severe form of primary immunodeficiency, characterised by profound defects in both humoral (B-cell) and cellular (T-cell) immunity. It presents in infancy with recurrent, severe, and opportunistic infections, chronic diarrhoea, and failure to thrive. Without curative therapy, most infants die within the first year of life. Incidence is…
View topic ↗Scaphoid Fracture
Overview Scaphoid fracture is the most common carpal bone fracture , accounting for ~60–70% of all carpal fractures. It occurs most frequently in young adults (15–40 years) following a fall on the outstretched hand (FOOSH). The scaphoid’s tenuous blood supply predisposes to non-union and avascular necrosis, especially in proximal fractures. Early recognition is essential as…

DiGeorge and Job syndrome – well-defined immunodeficiencies
George syndrome (22q11.2 deletion) and Job syndrome (hyper-IgE) explained with clear clinical signs and immune defects. Learn how these well-defined genetic syndromes cause recurrent infections, immune dysfunction, and characteristic physical findings. This video breaks down DiGeorge syndrome’s pharyngeal pouch failure from chromosome 22 microdeletion—remember “catch 22”—and its CATCH-22 features: cardiac defects, abnormal facies, thymic hypoplasia,…
Clinical Anatomy – Meninges (Intracranial hematoma, subdural, epidural, subarachnoid and meningitis)
The meninges (from the word ‘meninx’, which means membrane) refer to the distinct membranous coverings of the brain and spinal cord. The most superficial layer, which is directly underneath the skull, is called the dura mater. The dura mater is tough, fibrous and inextensible. The dura mater is made up of two layers – the…
Understanding Carpal Tunnel Syndrome and Carpal Tunnel Anatomy
Carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) is a common condition caused by compression of the median nerve as it passes through the wrist’s carpal tunnel. It often results in symptoms like numbness, tingling, pain, and weakness in the hand and fingers, especially the thumb, index, and middle fingers. CTS is frequently associated with repetitive hand movements, prolonged…
Our mission
Medical science is complex. Understanding it should feel possible.
Armando Hasudungan turns difficult medical science into clear visual explanations and connected learning experiences—so learners can see the whole picture, remember what matters and find a clearer way forward.
See it clearly
Turn abstract processes and invisible relationships into something the learner can picture.
Connect the pieces
Build understanding around how concepts fit together—not a pile of isolated facts.
Make it useful
Help learners move from explanation to recall, revision and the next logical step.
What clarity feels like
When the topic stops being a blur.
Learners do not come back because the subject became easy. They come back because the explanation gave them a picture they could work with.
“Armando's teaching style gives me the foundational knowledge.
Jessica Payne-Burnett
Medical Student, Charles Sturt University
“The notes I make during his videos help me retain everything better.
Ayesha RaiStudent, Islamabad Medical and Dental College
“The drawings are amazing and super easy to remember.

Coming soon: the AH study platform
The explanation is only the start.
The free library helps you find a clear explanation. The AH platform is being built to help you connect the resources, follow a clearer path and check what actually stuck.
- Watch in a focused, ad-free study environment.
- Move between connected videos, notes, diagrams and questions.
- Know what belongs next instead of rebuilding the study path yourself.
- Test your understanding while the topic is still fresh.
New and worth a look
Keep building the picture.
Lambert-Eaton Myasthenic Syndrome
Overview Lambert–Eaton myasthenic syndrome (LEMS) is a rare autoimmune disorder of the presynaptic neuromuscular junction. It causes impaired acetylcholine release, producing the characteristic triad of proximal muscle weakness, reduced reflexes and autonomic dysfunction. LEMS may occur as a paraneoplastic syndrome—most commonly associated with small-cell lung cancer (SCLC)—or as a non-tumour-associated autoimmune disorder. Neuromuscular junction: connection…
