Q

Replication of B19

A

Erythroid lineage

17
Q

Pathogenisis of parvovirus

A

Spreads by RES and oral secretions
Infect mitotically active precursor cells in bone marrow
Results in erthematius maculopaular rah arthralgia and arthritis
Cause aplastic crises in person with chronic anemia

18
Q

Clinical syndromes

A

Mild flulike illness
In children- slapped cheek erythema infectiosum
Adults-polyarthritis
Chronic anemia- aplastic crisis
Pregnant women-hydros fetalis
Note there ks not evidence that B19 causes congenital abnormalities

19
Q

What are the three types of fungal infections of the skin

A

1- superficial mycosis( yeast or mold
2- cutaneous mycosis
3- subcutaneous mycosis

20
Q

Superficial mycosis

A

Fungal infection of the stratum corneum layer
No pathological changes
Do not elicit immune system

21
Q

Infection of superficial mycosis

A

1- pityriasis= malassezia furfur
2- tinea nigra= hortaea werneckkii
3- back Piedra = piedraia hortae
4- white piedra= trichosporon beigelii

22
Q

Pityriasis tinea

A

Common superficial fungal infection
Malassezia furfur causes lipophilic yeast
Small hypo or hyper pigmented macules
In the upper trunk arms shoulder face and neck
Malassezia furfur produces clusters and clumps of short hyphae often called as spaghetti and meatballs

23
Q

Tinea Nigra

A

A fungal infection with dark pigmented macules with irregular,edges
Black fungus- hortea werneckki
May resemble a malignant melanoma

24
Q

White piedra

A

Infection of hair causes by yeastlike fungi of the genus trichisporon
In microscopic examination reveals hyphal elements, arthroconidia and budding yeast cells

25
Q

Black piedra

A

Pigmented brown to backs mold on the scalp
Piedraia hortae
The hyphae mass is held together by a cement like substance and contains asci and ascospores sexual phase of the fungus

26
Q

What are the cutaneous mycosis( evoke the cellular immune response) infections

A

1- tinea corporis
2- T. PEDIS
3- T. Capitis
4- T. CRURIS
5- T. Barbae

27
Q

Types of dermatophytosis

A

Trichophyton
Epidermophyton
Microsporum

28
Q

Trichophyton

A

19 species
Infect skin hair nails
Smooth thin wall and PENCIL SHAped
Most common cause of tinea- Trichophyton rubrum

29
Q

Microsporum

A

13 species
Infect skin and hair
Identifies easily on scalp
Loose cottony mycelia thick walled SPINDLE LIKED SHAPED
Microsporum canis- most common dermatophyte species infecting humans

30
Q

Epidermophyton floccosum

A

Firm yellow colored cottony cultures
CLUB SHAPED MULTIPLE SMOOTH MACROCONIDIA

31
Q

Subcutaneous mycoses

A

Wound mycoses
Invade deeper tissues

32
Q

What are the wound mycoses

A

1- chromoblastomycosis
2- ohaehyphyomycosis
3- mycetoma
4- sporotrichosis

33
Q

Chromoblastomycosis

A

34
Q

Phaehyphomycosis

A

Heterogenous array of fungal infections
