Q

increase in urinary WBCs (infections/inflamations)
Found in bacterial infections including pyelonephritis,
cystitis, prostatitis, and urethritis
also present in nonbacterial

A

pyuria

17
Q

they represent normal sloughing of old cells

A

epithelial cells

18
Q

Three types of epithelial cells are seen in
urine:

A

squamous, transitional (urothelial), and
renal tubular.

19
Q

largest cells found in the urine sediment
originate from the linings of the vagina and
female urethra and the lower portion of the
male urethra.

A

.SQUAMOUS EPITHELIAL CELLS

20
Q

variation of the squamous epithelial cell that is
studded/covered with bacteria (Gardnerella
coccobacillus)
indicative of vaginal infection by the bacterium
Gardnerella vaginalis

A

clue cells

21
Q

smaller than squamous cells and appear in several
forms, including spherical, polyhedral, and caudate

A

TRANSITIONAL (UROTHELIAL) EPITHELIAL CELLS

22
Q

Originate from the lining of the renal pelvis, calyces,
ureters, and bladder, and from the upper portion of the
male urethra

A

TRANSITIONAL (UROTHELIAL) EPITHELIAL CELLS

23
Q

vary in size and shape depending on the area of the
renal tubules from which they originate
tend to have a rectangular shape and are referred
to as columnar or convoluted cells

A

. RENAL TUBULAR EPITHELIAL CELLS

24
Q

the most clinical significant of the epithelial cells
presence of increased amounts is indicative of
necrosis of the renal tubules, with the possibility of
affecting overall renal function.

A

RENAL TUBULAR EPITHELIAL CELLS

25
Q

Presence of more than two RTE cells per high
power field indicates __

A

tubular injury

26
Q

lipid-containing RTE cells (RTE cells absorb lipids that are
present in the glomerular filtrate and appear highly refractile)

A

oval fat bodies

27
Q

often found in patients with nephrotic syndrome

A

oval fat bodies

28
Q

RTE cells containing large, nonlipidfilled vacuoles

A

bubble cells

29
Q

Seen in cases of acute tubular necrosis

A

bubble cells

30
Q

may be present in the form of cocci
(spherical) or bacilli (rods).

A

bacteria

31
Q

The bacteria most frequently associated with
UTI are the ___

A

Enterobacteriaceae

32
Q

appear in the urine as small, refractile oval
structures that may or may not contain a bud

A

yeast

33
Q

most frequent parasite encountered in the
urine is

A

Trichomonas vaginalis

34
Q

(the most common ova contaminant in urine)

A

Enterobius vermicularis

35
Q

not reported in routine urinalysis
Can be found in the urine after a sexual
intercourse, masturbation, or nocturnal
emission

A

spermatozoa

36
Q

a protein material produced by the glands and
epithelial cells of the lower genitourinary tract and the
RTE cell

A

mucus

37
Q

major constituent
of mucus

A

Tamm Horsfall Protein/uromodulin
