Q

EBV:
Which disease?
Characterized by which symptoms (4)?
Preferentially infects which cells? Which cells are the atypical cells seen on PBS?

A

Mononucleosis
Characterized by fever, hepatosplenomegaly, pharyngitis, and lymphadenopathy
Preferentially infects B cells. The atypical cells seen on PBS are actually cytotoxic T cells

A
  1. Roseola
  2. High fevers for several days (seizures) followed by “diffuse macular rash”
  3. Saliva
17
Q

Kaposi sarcomas:
Define
Seen in which patient populations (2)

A

Neoplasm of ENDOTHELIAL cells.

Seen in HIV/AIDS and transplant patients

18
Q

KS lesions:
Look like?
Also known to affect?

A

Dark/violaceous, flat and nodular skin lesions.

Also known to affect GI tract and lungs if T cell count tanks

19
Q

Best way to identify HSV:
Skin infection?
Encephalitis?
The other test that isn’t actually used anymore but somehow remains relevant on this damn exam? What are we looking for on this test?

A
  1. Viral culture for skin/genitalia
  2. CSF PCR for herpes encephalitis
  3. Tzanck Test–> looking for “MULTINUCLEATED GIANT CELLS”
20
Q

Name all the DNA viruses:
HHAPPPPy

Pox, pap, parv, poly all hated herpes and hepa filters

A 
Herpesviruses
Hepadnavirus
Adenovirus
Poxvirus
Papillomavirus
Parvovirus
Polyomavirus
21
Q

Which DNA viruses are enveloped? Which are naked?

“always give CPR and PAPP to naked hippys”

A 
Naked:
Parvovirus
Papillomavirus
Polyomavrius
Adenovirus

Enveloped:
Herpes, hepadnavirus, and poxvirus
Just think of the poxvirus being very hard to kill which comes from the envelope.
