CAMP test show

A

Special for S.aglagtiace
there is al ine of staphs then you put a prepdndicular line of the suspected organism

Q

Describe pathogenisis of listeria

A

It colonized in colon and then to Female genital tract from which can invade neonate transplacental if membranes ruptured or during birth
during birth the neonate acquire meningitis and the pathogen reach meninges through blood stream .
It depends on ? The ability to invade and facultative intraculluar survival

Early onset disease if tranplacental may cause granulomatous infantiseptica That leads to abscess + granulomas in multiple organ then death
_____________________________
late onset during leaving birth canal
may cause Meningitis or menigio encephalitis with speis 2-3 weeks

Q

Mention one of the leading causes of bacteral meningits in patients with cancer and renal transplants recepients ?

A

Listeria monocytogens

20
Q

Listeria is
=intacelluar gram …. rods that occur singlt or in pairs resembling……..
=MOtiel tumbling movment to be differentiated from ,,,,,,
=small grey colonies iwth narrow zone of B hemolysis on blood agar so differentiaed from streptococci by ?

A

Gram + Diptheriodis
coynebactria
________________
Catalse test

21
Q

Prevention of listeria

A

no immunization
limiting the eposure of pregnants to
Animals
unpasturized milk
raw meat and vegetables

22
Q

Cryptococcal meningitis is caued by ?

A

Cryptococcus neformans
_________________________
Espeically in AIDS patients
_____________________
IT IS divded into 5 serological types ABCD AD according to ? capsular antigen

23
Q

Mode of transmisson

A

Inhalation of the organism from the soil contaitng bird droppings no human to human transmission

24
Q

Pathogenisis of cryptococcal menigits

A

The inhhlation of the cryptococcus neforamns leading to its phagocytosis in lungs being asymptomatic or Causing Lobar pnemonia then hematogenous spread to the CNS and meiniges Causing menigitis
The ability to produce melanin aids it to evade phagocytic killing

25
Q

C/P crytpococcal neforamns infection

A

often asymotomatc but there is anothr word in case of AIDS
CASUING lobar nepmina and hematogenous spread to meingis casusing cryptococcal meninigits
________________
Subcuatnous nodules may be disseminated

26
Q

Lab diagnosis ?

A

=INdian ink stained smear
=or sabourad dextorse agar with mucoid colonies
=Laboratory diagnosis by capsular antigen latex agglutination test in CSF as highly sensitie and specific test

27
Q

Asperigllius is opportunistic fungus most common species is Aspergillus ,,,,,,,,,
It is ,,,,, and,,,,,,, found on ……and…… and gorws as molds on ………..
IT has,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,hyphae and produces sopres on tips of long ………

A

Fumigatus
saprhopytic opportunistic
soil ,plant
as molds on decaying vegetables
Bracnhcing septatae
Condiophores

28
Q

Aspergillus is inhaled then Hematogenous to CNS cAUSING ?

A

mENIGITS cerbtiris and abscess in brain
Aspergiulls can invade blood vessels casuing nercrosis + polymorph nuclear infiltration csauing mycotic aneyrsum and ruptured casing subarachanoid Hge

29
Q

Subarachanoid Hge appear in ?
why?

A

Asperigillis due to affecting blood vessels casuing necrosis + Polymorphnucelar infilation casuing mycotic aneyrusms and rupture casuning Hge

30
Q

Risk factors for aspergillus infecion ??

A

Immunocompression
Neutropenia nd corticosteriods
Organ transplant recepients
Oncological
Hematological
AIDS
Patients

31
Q

Pathogenis of aspergilis

A

enter by inhalation then heamtogenous spread to brain and meninges OR
direct extenrsion from mastoid paranasl sinus and ears to CNS
