Liver Path V Flashcards
autoimmune hepatitis
chronic hepatitis - immune abnormalities
-neg sero tests for virus
type 1 - female
type 2 - children
-elevated IgG
has titers
majority have other autoimmune
type 1 autoimmune hepatitis
female
ANA, ASMA
negative AMA
type 2 autoimmune hepatitis
children
ALKM1, ACL-1
predictable
intrinsic
unpredicatable
idiosyncratic
DDx for liver disease
always include exposure to toxin or drug
budd chiari
oral contraceptives
angiosarcoma
vinyl chloride
zone 3 necrosis
acetaminophen
zone 1 hepatotoxicity
Fe overload
allyl alcohol
zone 3 hepatotoxicity
acetaminophen
ethanol
CCl4
acetaminophen and ethanol
increased zone 3 necrosis
isoniazid
first line anti-TB drug
hepatic damage occurs
microvesicular fatty change
tetracycline
salicylates
cholestatic reactions
estrogens
antibiotics
NAPQI
problematic in path of acetaminophen toxicity
depletion of GSH
acetylcysteine - reduces NAPQ1 to APAP
drug metabolism
in zone 3 - centrilobular
reye syndrome
aspirin use
- rare
- chilren
- mito dysfunction - liver and brain
extensive accumulation of fat droplets - microvesicular steatosis**
oil red O stain
for reye syndrome
stains lipids**
