Heme and Lymph Flashcards
non blanchable, hemorrhagic skin lesions that result from leakage of RBCs into skin
purpura
macular purpura
non palpable/ non-inflammatory
petechiae if under 3 mm
ecchymosis if over 5 mm
purpura + thrombocytopenia and abnormal coagulation studies
septicemia HUS Leukemia ITP coagulpathies (hemophilia)
SHLIC
are purpura palpable in thrombocytopenic purpuric disorders
no
purpura + normal platelet count and coagulation studies
henosch-schoenlein purpura (HSP or IgA vasculitis)
common in children with HSP but not in adults
intussesception
tetrad for HSP is
palpable purpura without thrombocytopenia and coagulopathy
\+ 1 or more of the following -acute arthralgia and or arthritis acute abdominal pain renal disease IgA depostion on biopsy
immune mediated vasculitis that may be triggered by a variety of antigens including various infections and immunizations
IgA vasculitis (IgA nephropathy)
considerations for diagnosis of HSP:
may follow ____ infection and present with generalized what
strep
arthralgias/myalgias, rash, palpable purpura (especially on LE and buttocks) abdominal pain, and renal insufficiency
PAM RARI
acute hemorrhagic edema of infancy
called what else what age extent of disease presents with biopsy
leukocytoclastic vasculitis
children btwn ages of 4 months to two years
self limited disease, resolves in 1-3 weeks
fever, purpura, ecchymosis, inflammatory edema of limbs (FEPI)
biopsy demonstrates leukocytoclastic vasculitis with occasional IgA deposition
hypersensitivity vasculitis
from what
symptoms
histopath
inflammation of the small vessels that occurs after exposure to:
drugs, infection, or without known tigger
fever, urticaria, LAD, arthralgias (no GN)
histopathology: leukocytoclastic vasculitis primarily of postcap venules, but IgA deposition is absent
other small vessel vasculitieds: primary vasculitieds
granulomatosis with polyangiitis (wegner)
microscopic polyangiitis
eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis (churg strauss syndrome)
secondary vascular inflammation
SLE
RA
infectious disease (hepatitis)
uncommon in children
pt doing insanity workout with arthralgias, abdominal pain, renal insufficiency, cpk elevation
rhabdomyolysis
until pt develops the classical purpura of HSP could have DDx of
arthritis and arthralgia
