Q

. It is also a distinctive
form of coagulative necrosis. The
dead tissue appears as a soft and
white proteinaceous dead cell mass.

A

Caseous necrosis or caseous
degeneration

19
Q

Caseous necrosis or caseous
degeneration is a unique form of
cell death in which the tissue
maintains a ____appearance.

A

cheese-like

20
Q

Fibrinoid necrosis is a specific
pattern of irreversible, uncontrolled
cell death that occurs when
_____ are
deposited in the walls of blood
vessels along with fibrin.

A

antigen-antibody complexes

21
Q

Fibrinoid, When stained with hematoxylin and
eosin, they appear ____ and ___

A

brightly eosinophilic and smudged.

22
Q

traumatic fat necrosis are significant only because _____

A

it produces a mass

23
Q

a morphology of fat necrosis mass in early stage

A

tender and sharply localized lesion

24
Q

a morphology of fat necrosis mass in late stage

A

ill-defined indurations (scar); may cause skin retraction

25
Q

microscopically, that is the characteristic of traumatic fat necrosis

A

a central focus of necrotic fat cells surrounded by neutrophil and lipid-filled macrophages, which is later enclosed by fibrous tissue and mononuclear leukocytes

26
Q

a fat necrosis wherein a multinucleated giant cells are frequently seen at this stage

A

intermediate stage of fat necrosis

27
Q

this fat necrosis stage shows an abundant infiltrate of _____ n response to necrotic adipocytes

A

lipid-laden histiocytes

28
Q

fat necrosis later will develop ___

A

scarring fibrosis

29
Q

____ may be defined as the reaction of vascularised living
tissue to local injury

A

Inflammation

30
Q

a type of inflammation wherein it’s gradual and less sever in onset

A

chronic inflammation

31
Q

a type of inflammation that is may be a consequence of a previous acute inflammation

A

Chronic inflammation

32
Q

Microscopically what we can observed in the inflammation

A

the chronically inflamed tissue accumulates lymphocytes at the site of the injury.

There is also a characteristic
proliferation of connective tissue

33
Q

is characterized by the
outpouring of a watery, relatively protein-poor fluid that, depending on the site of injury, derives either from the plasma or from the secretions of mesothelial cells lining the peritoneal, pleural, and pericardial cavities

A

Serous inflammation

34
Q

The skin blister resulting from a burn or viral infection is a good example of the accumulation of a ___ either within or immediately beneath the epidermis of the skin

A

serous effusion

35
Q

Fluid in a serous cavity is called an ___

A

effusion

36
Q

____ occurs as a
consequence of more severe injuries, resulting in greater vascular permeability that allows large molecules (such as fibrinogen) to pass
the endothelial barrier

A

Fibrinous inflammation

37
Q

Histologically, the accumulated extravascular fibrin appears as an ___

A

eosinophilic meshwork of
threads or sometimes as an amorphous coagulum

38
Q

A fibrinous exudate is characteristic of
inflammation in the lining of body cavities, such
as the ___, ___, and ____

A

meninges, pericardium, and pleura.

39
Q

_____ is inflammation of prolonged duration (weeks to years) in which continuing inflammation, tissue injury, and healing, often by fibrosis, proceed simultaneously.

A

Chronic inflammation

40
Q

chronic inflammation is characterized by

A

different set of reactions such as

—Infiltration with mononuclear cells, including macrophages, lymphocytes, and plasma cells

— Tissue destruction, largely induced by the products of the inflammatory cell

41
Q

in acute inflammation, it is characterized by

A

vascular changes, edema, and a predominantly neutrophilic infiltrate

42
Q

H&E preparations some of the activated
macrophages in granulomas have pink, granular
cytoplasm with indistinct cell boundaries; these
are called ___ because of their
resemblance to epithelia.

A
