Q

Diagnostic pathology

A

an AUTOPSY (syn: necropsy) may be performed to determine the cause of death in an individual or in a group of animals or to explain decreased production

Surgical pathology

A

(histologic examination of surgically excised tissue specimens) not only facilitates diagnosis and prognosis for a living animal but also can be the basis for therapy

Q

What is

General pathology:

A

Study of the reaction of cells or tissues to injury with a focus on the mechanisms of that response.

Basic changes:

– Circulatory disturbances – Regressive changes
– Proliferative changes
– Inflammations

– Tumors
– Developmental anomalies

Q

When is the recognition of death

A

Recognition of death:

Q

What is happening

A

Postmortem destruction - putrefaction

Decomposition products → Activity of saprogenic bacteria

Suffocation supports the putrefaction → blood remains liquid

Decomposition from Intestine – v. portae – liver

Dissolution into gases, liquids and salts

Ptomaines (neurine, muscarine, putrescin)

Gas production – stomach distension

Under 5 degrees putrefaction stops

    • catabolic enzimes continue to work
    • liver, kidney, heart, bone marrow! (anaemia)
  • Hyperkalaemia (potassium released from the cells)
    • 2nd day: oliguria, anuria (degeneration of tubular cells)

General effects of burn

HYPERTHERMIA

A

Hyperthermia

  • Extremely increased internal temperature of the body
  • Hyperthermia = (failure of physical heat regulation)
    • High (and humid) environmental temperature
    • High own heat production (pyrogens)
    • Heat loss is inhibited
  • Consequences similar to burn consequences
  • Pathologic findings
    • Quickly developing RM, incompletely CLOTTED blood, early PUTREFACTION
    • Hemostasis in internal organs, brain edema, meningeal hyperemia, and hemorrhages in the hypothalamus

Ketone bodies are 3 water-soluble molecules

  1. Acetoacetate,
  2. Beta-hydroxybutyrate and their spontaneous breakdown product,
  3. Acetone

Produced in LIVER from FATTY ACIDS

  1. Low food intake (fasting), carbohydrate restrictive diets, starvation,

DIABETIC AUTOINTOXICATION

What is KETOSIS and KETOACIDOSIS

A
  1. Ketosis is a metabolic state in which most of the body’s energy supply comes from ketone bodies in the blood, in contrast to a state of glycolysis in which blood glucose provides most of the energy.
  2. KETOACIDOSIS (DKA) is a potentially life-threatening complication in people and animals with DM

➢ It happens predominantly in those with type 1 diabetes.

➢DKA results from a shortage of insulin; in response the body switches to burning fatty acids and producing acidic ketone bodies, causes most of the symptoms and complications.

Q

Phase II - detoxification pathway

A

This is called the conjugation pathway, whereby the liver cells add another substance (eg. cysteine, glycine or a sulphur molecule) to a toxic chemical or drug, to render it less harmful.

This makes the toxin or drug water-soluble, so it can then be excreted from the body via watery fluids such as bile or urine.

Q
  1. Histolysis/heterolysis by gangrene = putrid autointoxication

Dry Gangrene

A

Dry gangrene is a form of coagulative necrosis that develops in ischemic tissue, where the blood supply is inadequate to keep tissue viable.

➢ The limited oxygen in the ischemic tissue limits putrefaction and bacteria fail to survive.

➢ The affected part is dry, shrunken and dark reddish-black.

➢ The line of separation usually leads to complete separation, with eventual falling off of the gangrenous tissue if it is not removed surgically, a process called autoamputation.
