Head Neck Path Flashcards
sequence of development of squamous cell carcinoma
hyperplasia
dysplasia (progressive pleomorphism, hyperchromasia, nuclear size, nucelar/cytomplasmic ratio) (increasing risk with increasing dysplasia)
carcinoma
tissue type posterial nasal cavity and sinuses
ciliated psuedo stratified columnar
submucosa: sermucinous glands, thickwalled vessels, mixed inflamm cells
septum = cartilage and lamellar bone
gland with no lymph nodes, drains to oral cavity
submandibular
candidiasis
white plaque-like psuedo membrane
scraping > erythamatous base
fungal hypahae attached to mucosa
silver stain
squamous papilloma
soft fingerlike appearance in lingual, labial, buccal, and larynx epithelia, papillary hyperplasia of squamous mucosa with fibrovascular cores
Salivary glands
epithelial ductal cells
myoepthelial cells
mesenchymal compoeents - mxoid, hyaline, chondroid
pleomorphic adenoma
most common carcinoma of OC
squamous cell carcinoma
leukoplakia
white patch caused by epidermal thickening or hyperkeratosis
cannot be scraped off
localization nasopharyngeal carcinoma
northern african
China and SE Asia
pathology and associations sjorgream syndrome
associated with other autoimmune
anti-SS-B and SS-A
lymphocyte inflitration of glands with eventual gland destruction
mikulicz disease (benign lymphoepithelial lesion)
morphology minor salivary glands
unencapsulated
throughout OC
variable - mixed, mucoinous or serous
common sites of metatasis of oral squamous cell carcinoma
regional lymph nodes (submental, cervical)
lung, liver, bone, mediastinal lymph nodes
microscopy warthin tumor
bilayered oncocytic (pink) epithelail cells and lymphocyte proliferation
HPV serotypes associated with sqaumous cell carcinoma
other associations
serotypes 16 and 18
tobacco and alcohol
family history
erythroplakia (common)
leukoplakia
major and minor salivary glands
perinerual ivasion
cribiform architecture (sieve)
adenoid cystic carcinoma
sqaumous papilloma association, infection site and gross appearance
HPV
soft fingerlike appearance in lingual, labial, buccal, and larynx epithelia
gross and microscopic appearnace schneiderian papillmomas
proliferations from schneiderian membrane - nasal mucosa of ciliated columnar cells
histo Mucoepidermoid carcinoma
parotid and minor salivary glands
squamous, muscous, and intermediate cells
squamous cells with mucin vacuoules
nests of cells with pink cytoplasm,
most common salivary gland tumor
most common malignant
pleomorphic adenoma
mucoepidermoid carcinoma (maligant)
parotid and minor salivary glands
squamous, muscous, and intermediate cells
squamous cells with mucin vacuoules
nests of cells with pink cytoplasm,
mucoepidermoid carcinoma
oral cavitiy candidiasis clinical appearance, microscopy
white plaque-like psuedo membrane
scraping > erythamatous base
fungal hypahae attached to mucosa
silver stain
gross appearance and microscopy rhinosinusitis
complications?
