necrosis

A

cell death

29
Q

Necrosis

A

patholigical based on assault not coming from outside

30
Q

heterolysis

A

other from other cells

31
Q

Necrosis

A

shows clumping of the nuculeus

32
Q

Karolysis

A

degrading of nuculeus

33
Q

Pykonois

A

shrinking of nuculeus, condesing material of the nuculeus

34
Q

Karorrhexis

A

fragmenting the nuculeus

35
Q

Karorrhexis

A

fragmenting the nuculeus, random not precise

36
Q

karolysis, karoheixis, pyknos

A

37
Q

apotosis

A

active programmed cell death carried out by proteins. Energy dependent, homestatic process of turning over cells.

38
Q

Laddering

A

DNA gets cuts precise, resolve them in a lab

39
Q

dead cells under go aptosis and get removed by

A

phagocytosis, but don’t get inflammatory response

40
Q

Necrosis we get

A

inflammatory response, physilogical kind of death, hormone withdraws cells turn over becomes pathological

41
Q

aptosis is pathological

A

in Aids triggered prematurely or excessively.

42
Q

HIV

A

lose CD4 immune cells, which are T cells. Aids activates aptosis early, kill CD4 way before they should die.

43
Q

CD4 cells make you at risk for

A

opportunistic infection

44
Q

Aptosis is seen in

A

cancer, yocardial infaction, HIV- CD4 , T cells killed prematurely

45
Q

gangrene

A

lack of bld flow

46
Q

Ischemia underpins

A

gangrene

47
Q

Gangrene you’ll see

A

heat, swelling, redness, leakage of fluids.

48
Q

Gangrene

A

worry about infection

49
Q

Necrosis two types

A

coagulative and liquifactive

50
Q

Coagulative

A

results due to ischemia, tissue becomes dry and dies

51
Q

liquefactive necrosis

A

infection, pus, carcasses of immune cells, bacteria

52
Q

Caseous necrosis

A

combination of dry and liquactive

53
Q

Gas gangrene

A

clostrifum perfringenes, anerobic bacteria, thrives in low to no o2 conditions

54
Q

Heart disease, blood pressure, diabetes are contributes to

A

gangrene due to poor circulation

55
Q

Gangrene management

A

sugars under control, bp under control,

56
Q

See gangrene in dependent tissues due to

A

lack of bld flow

57
Q

the basic pathological process that underpins gangrene is a lack of oxygen usually due to ischemia.

A

True

58
Q

The answer is A– two general types of gangrene are dry gangrene and wet gangrene. And typically, when you look at dry gangrene, it is without infection. And wet gangrene is associated with infection.

A
59
Q

he answer is B. Gas gangrene is classified as a subset of wet gangrene, and this is because gas gangrene involves an infection, usually with Clostridium type bacterium like Clostridium perfringens, and this produces a gas toxin which is very damaging and destructive to the tissue. But because it’s a type of infection, we would associate this as a sub-classification of wet gangrene.

A
60
Q

The answer is true. Wet gangrene is often associated with infection. So again, typically, that changes in infection, give rise to the secretions, and the other changes that we see associated with wet gangrene.

A
61
Q

The answer is C– gas gangrene. So when we’re looking at Clostridium perfringens– this is a anaerobic bacterium that typically gets into the tissue in an environment where there is a lack of oxygen. Remember, we said that ischemia was an underlying risk for gangrene.

So when we have this anaerobic bacteria, it starts to grow in this oxygen-deprived environment. It releases toxins, including exotoxins. And this is going to result in the release of a gas, which is very destructive to tissue, and again, gives rise to this kind of gas gangrene.

A
62
Q

The answer is A, debridement. So this is a treatment approach that’s used for gangrene, and it involves surgical removal of dead and dying tissue. And this is important often times when there’s been a lot of tissue damage or destruction.

A
63
Q

The answer is A. Coagulative and liquefactive are the two major necrotic processes associated with gangrene. So if we look at necrotic processes, coagulative and liquefactive are the two major types that we see. Things like caseous, fat– these are other subtypes of necrotic processes.

A
64
Q

The answer is, A, Coagulative. So the type of necrotic process that is a consequence of hypoxia or ischemia associated with dry gangrene is a coagulative process.

A
65
Q

The answer is b, liquefactive. So this is a necrotic process that typically occurs in wet gangrene where you get dissolution or liquification of tissue. So liquefactive is the type of necrosis that’s often associated with wet gangrene.
