1
Q

Can fibrin thrombi form in septal lymphatics?

A

yes, because lymphatics drain lymph and clogging them causes net accumulation of more fluid exudate

36
Q

Name this lesion.

A

acute, multifocal, severe, ulcerative, necropurulent enteritis

37
Q

What is an exudate?

A

fluid, cells, or debris from blood vessels that deposited in or on other tissues

38
Q

What color is exudate commonly?

A

opaque

39
Q

What should the specific gravity for exudate be?

A

greater than 1.020

40
Q

How much protein is usually in viscous fluids that contain exudate?

A

more than 3 grams of protein

41
Q

How many leukocytes are usually in viscous fluids that contain exudate?

A

1500 leukocytes

42
Q

These intestinal lesions are due to an acute process. What sort of cells and protein would you expect to find in the tissue and in the exudate?

A

plasma, complement, fibrinogen, and neutrophils

43
Q

What is happening to these gyri?

A

edema; they are flattened and wider than normal

44
Q

What is happening here?

A

vascular engorgement and hyperemia

45
Q

What is this?

A

tan to yellow, viscous fluid within the meninges

46
Q

What is this?

A

tan to yellow, stringy friable material - fibrin

47
Q

What are the medical terms used to describe inflammation of the meninges and ventricles of the brain?

A

meningitis and ventriculitis

48
Q

What is the morphological diagnosis for the lesion to the brain?

A

acute, diffuse, severe cerebral and cerebellar edema with fibrinous ventriculatis

49
Q

What is the morphological diagnosis for the lesion to the meninges?

A

acute, diffuse, severe fibrinopurulent meningitis

50
Q

Why are the sulci not clearly seen in this case?

A

because there is fibrinous exudate within the meninges

51
Q

What is the exudate in this case composed of?

A

fluid, fibrin, other plasma proteins, and some neutrophils

52
Q

The meninges are diffuse bright red with prominent blood vessels. Why do think the meningeal vessels are engorged with blood?

A

active hyperemia - bacteria ilicit an inflammatory response which lead to vasodilation to increase blood flow to the blood vessels

53
Q

What is the pathogenesis for this lesion?

A

decreased immunity and increased susceptibility leads to exposure to bacteria which leads to septicemia which leads to hematogenous spread to the meninges which leads to colonization which leads to initiation of the acute inflammatory response which leads to meningitis

54
Q

What is this?

A

edema

55
Q

What are 4 causes of a lesion like this?

A

increased microvascular permeability, increased intravascular hydrostatic pressure, decreased intravascular osmotic pressure, decreased lymphatic drainage

56
Q

Explain the lesion for this urethra:

A

locally extensive area of the urethral lumen contains a tan, friable material admixed with purulent exudate, black to purple discoloration and multifocal ulceration in the urethral mucosa, edema, hemorrhage and hyperemia in the soft tissue

57
Q

Explain the lesion for this urinary bladder:

A

multifocal hemorrhages on the mucosal surface of the bladder that extends to the serousal surface, multifocal edematous and friable bladder wall, calculi in the bladder

58
Q

What is this?

A

hemorrhage of the urethral mucosa

59
Q

What is this?

hemorrhage extending from the cortex to the medulla

68
Q

What is occuring to the renal pelvis here?

A

it is dilated

69
Q

What is the pleural surface of this lung covered in?

A

fibrin

70
Q

What is the morphologic diagnosis for this lung?

A

acute, diffuse, severe fibrinous pleuritis

71
Q

How did this material (fibrin) get to the lung?

A

endothelial damage allows for large molecular weight plasma protein to leak into the tissues, fibrinogen leaks out of the capillaries and post capillary venules during the fluidic phase of accute inflammation and it polymerizes to fibrin

A

peritonitis

79
