GI Pathology Flashcards
what ae the two main inflammatory bowel diseases
crohns
ulcerative colitis
what is another inflammatory disease
coeliac disease
what is an nflmamtory bowel disease
chronic condition due to inappropriate mucosal immune activity
what is the pathogenesis of inflam autoimmune
hygiene
- intestinal microbes- limited flora greater impact
- intestinal epi function
- immune reposnes Th + interuekin recps
- genetic
what are crohns features
anywhere in GI skip lesions thick wall strictures deep ulcers mod pseudopolyps transmural inflam granulomas fistulae recurrence
what are UC features
limited to colona nd rectum continuous thin wall no strictures superficial ulcers marked pseudopolyps mucosal inflam no granulomas no fistuale no recurrance
what are the oral manifestations of crohn
30%
oral ulcers - cobblestone
recurrent aphthous ulcers
what are the oral manifestations of uC
recurrent pathos ulcers
what is coeliac disese
immune mediated disease due to ingestion of gluten containing cereals
how prevalent is coeliac disease

in 30-60 y.o
what is coeliac disease assc with
HLA - DQ8
dermatitis
herpetiforms
auto immune diseases
what is the apthogeensi of coeliac disease
gliadin ( comp of gluten) trigger immune resp
activate intra epi lymphocytes
tissue damage
what sit he histological features assc with coeliac disease
villous atrophy
crypt hyperplasia
increased intra epi lymphocytes
what are some oral minfetations of coeliac disease
enamel defects delayed eruption recurrent apthous ulcers angular chelitis atrophic glossitis
what is glossitis
infra of tongue
what is the cancer w out likely to come across
oral SCC
what is the aetiology of SCC
smoking alcohol HPV betel nuts genetics chronic irritation
what si the pathogenesis of SCC
successive genetic alterations affect oncogenes and tumour suppression genes
what can SCC present as
white patch
speckled patch
veruucous like
ulceration
what si the history of SCC like
dysplastic lesion - sq cells breach base mem
must show keratin or prickle cells
