Q

Lymph node enlargement is

A

Lymphadenopathy

21
Q

Lymph node inflammation (typically tender) is

A

Lymphadenitis

22
Q

5 causes of lymphadenopathy

A

Infection, autoimmune disease, iatrogenic, malignancy and other factors (ex- sarcoidosis, dermatopathic lymphadenopathy)

23
Q

Aspirate bone marrow cells allow you to see what?

A

Individual cell morphology and number

24
Q

Features of Follicular Hyperplasia (4)

A
  1. Mantle Zone polarization
  2. Normal Bcl2 staining (mantle stains)
  3. Large germinal center
  4. Presence of Tingable body macrophages
25
Q

Features of Paracortical Hyperplasia (3)

A
  1. Paracortical (T cell area) expansion
  2. Histiocytes (macrophages) are present in sinuses
  3. Possible concurrent follicular hyperplasia
26
Q

Acute Nonspecific Lymphadenitis is characterized by

A

Enlarged, red, tender soft nodes

27
Q

What is the usual cause of acute nonspecific lymphadenitis and what demographic is typically involved

A

Kids- drainage infections
Teeth, tonsils –> cervical
Extremities, groin –> axillary/inguinal nodes
Appedicitis, yersinia –> mesenteric

28
Q

What is characteristic of Chronic Nonspecific Lymphadenitis and what is the cause?

A
  • Non-tender nodes presenting with any of the histological pattens
  • Caused by chronic immunologic stimulation
29
Q

Lymphomas typically present with

A

non-tender adenopathy (66%); 33% present with extranodal tissue involvement

30
Q

Leukemia symptoms

A

Symptoms of Bone Marrow Failure: poor clotting, bruising, petechia, anemia, more infections

31
Q

What is a plasma cell neoplasm?

A

Type of Lymphoid Neoplasm that involves terminally differentiated B cells that results in bony destruction (lytic lesions) and involved bone marrow

32
Q

General Symptoms of Lymphoma

A

lumps/bumps present for more than 2 months, hard lymph nodes, weight loss

33
Q

Differentiating Hodgkin and Non Hodgkin Lymphoma

A

HL- spreads in a systemic fashion

NHL- at diagnosis is more disseminated on a molecular level

34
Q

Diagnostic features that suggest lymphoid neoplasms (4)

A
  1. Loss of immune vigilance –> more infections
  2. Loss of immune tolerance –> autoimmunity
  3. Adenopathy that cannot be explained
  4. B Symptoms (fever, sweats, weight loss)
