indigestible material is identifies within the
cytoplasm of multinucleated giant cell

A

Foreign body giant cells

18
Q

Characteristic inflammation of body cavities; develop when the vascular leaksare large enough or there is a procoagulant stimulus in the interstitium

Q

is a distinctive pattern of chronic inflammation that is encountered in a limited number of infectious and some noninfectious conditions

A

Granulomatous infl ammation

22
Q

also called azurophilic or nonspecific and contain lysozyme, collagenase, gelatinase, lactoferrin, plasminogen activator,
histaminase, and alkaline phosphatase

A

Primary granules

23
Q

Primarily serves to contain and remove a pathological agent or process within a tissue

A

CHRONIC INFLAMMATION

24
Q

This type of immune response produces granulomas usually when the inciting agent is poorly degradable or
particulate

A

Immune granulomas

25
Q

The process of transfer from the inside the blood vessel to outside the blood vessel

A

Diapedesis

26
Q

Also called SPECIFIC and contain Lactoferrin, Lysozyme, Alkaline phosphatase, Collagenase

A

Secondary granules
