Histology Lab #3 Flashcards
What does ARDS stand for?
Acute Respiratory Distress syndrome
ARDS has multifactorial sources of injury to what areas of the lungs and what is the flow of injury leading to death?
Injury to respitory capillary endothelium (generally primary) and epithelium (often secondary)
Fluid build up in alveolar spaces -> less oxygen -> change in lung -> organ failure -> death
What are the inciting causes of ARDS?
Inciting causes: endotoxemia, sepsis, disseminated pulmonary infections, extensive trauma, burns, transfusions, DIC, pancreatitis or aspiration of gastric contents
What characteristics observed in a lung slide suggests ARDS?
An observed pink color in alveolar spaces means the alveolar spaces are filled with a pink proteinaceous fluid
What is the labeled feature?
What is the difference between the two lung slides?
Hyaline cartilage
ARDS lung: alveolar spaces are filled with pink proteinaceous material and inflammatory cells
What are the/ going on in these labeled regions?
Purple Heart: Fibrin
Pink Star: Dilated blood vessels
bottom purple: Inflammatory cells, Macrophages, Neutrophils and hemorrhage
Describe the flow of repair from a damaged vessel to scaring.
Damaged vessel leaks fluid and fibrin -> Formation of hyaline membrane (protein, fibrin, surfactant, and cell debris) -> scaring form
The liver tissue from a dog with Hepatocellular Carcinoma originates from what two types of cells?
-originates from hepatocytes (hepatic stem cells)
-carcinoma: originates from epithelial cells
We can list differential Dx
- Hepatocelluar carcinoma
- Biliary adenocarcinoma
We can list differential Dx
we need what?
- Hepatocelluar carcinoma
- Biliary adenocarcinoma
What is the the two labeled parts?
Pink: expansile neoplasm
Blue: Compressed preexisting Hepatic parechyma
what are the 3 labeled parts?
Red: expansive neoplasm
teal: portal triad
Green: compressed preexisting hepatic paranchyma
what are the 3 labeled parts?
Red: expansive neoplasm
teal: portal triad
Green: compressed preexisting hepatic paranchyma
This neoplasm is what?
This neoplasm is Hepatocellular carcinoma. See prompt for the reason
What is this region above trying to make?
” trying to make sinusoids by neoplasm containing red blood cells”
