Granulomatous and specific inflammations Flashcards
what is granulomatous inflammation
- most common type of specific inflamamiton
- chronic inflammation
-exsudation- monocytes, macrophages, hsitoocytes - prolif–>specific granulation tissue
-varibale alteration–>necrosis
granuloma
localized(tumoriform) inflammatory infiltarte with vharcateristic (organoid) internal arrangment
cellualr components of granulomas
macrophages
hsitocyties–<epitheloid or epitheloid histiocyets
giant cells
lymphocytes, plasma cells
NO VESSLES-avascular
Fibroblasts–>fibrotization in healing
diff btw non specific and specifinc
non-specific:
- prolif of new vv –>prolif of endothelial cells +fibroblasts–>collagen
- some inflamamotey cells of macrophages or lymphocyes
- end with fibrotic scar
specific:
- usually arranged, forming lesions called granulomas
- composed of monocytic, histiocytic origin-epotheloid histiocytes
- some other lymohocytes
- Avascular
roel of granulomatous inflammaiton
- relatively inert (poorly degradebale) material (exo/endo, biogen/abiogen origin)
- chronnic and persistent infection, highly virulent and poorly degradable microorganisms or antigens–>to surrond and stop spreading, prepare agent for destruction
- autoimmnuen and allergic (hypersensitive )process
- 4TH TYPES: cell emdiated/delayed - inadequate healing of acute inflamamiton
- some immunologcical disorders (immunodeficienct syndromes)
infectinous disorder: TB
mycobacterium tb (and bovis)
infectinous disorder: leprosy
mycobacterium leprae
infectinous disorder:syphilis(3rd stage)
treponema pallidum
caseuous necrosis
infectinous disorder: cat scratch disease (CSD)
bartonella henselae
- regional nodes are developing absessing granulomas
infectinous disorder: mesenterial lymphadentitis
Yersenia pseudotuberculosis, Y.enerocolitica
inflammation of intraabdomnial lymph node
infectinous disorder: lymphogranuloma venerum
chlamydia trachomatis
- sexually transmitted
- abseccing inflammaiton in inguinal pelvic ln
infectinous disorder: rhinoscleroma
klebilla rhinosceromatis
-specific inflammaiton of nasal mucosa
infectinous disorder: tularemia and listerosis
francisella tularensis and listeria monocytogenes
- animals to humans
mycotic infections
histoplasmosis, cryptococcosis, coccidimycosis, blastomycosis
parasitic infections
may lead to specific granulomatous morphologhy
