Which organism is endemic in this area?
F. tularensis
Org?
Nocardia
(G+ and branching)
Organism?
S. pneumoniae
Organism?
Nocardia
(AF and branching)
What organism?
B. anthrax
(notice BoX car appearance)
Dz?
Staph aureus pneumonia
(notice two abscesses in left lobe and empyema both sides)
Dz characterized by these findings?
HPS
(Hantavirus)
Disease?
Bronciolitis +/- pneumonia
(RSV, hPIV, or hMPV)
Org?
Actinomyces
(G+ and branching)
Which org could cause these diseases?
Coxiella
(Q fever; pneumonia if in spore form; granulomas in liver; endocarditis)
Organisms lifecycle?
Chlamydia
What organism is in this sputum sample?
Pneumococcus
What causes this appearance?
Quelling rxn - Abs to capsule of pneumococcus
Organism?
S. pneumoniae
(Lancet-shaped diplococci)
This region is endemic to what org?
Histo
(Ohio Mississippi River Valley)
This is a picture of what process that occurs in what bug?
Reassortment - influenza
Organism?
Nocardia
(AF + branched)
Dx?
PcP
Org?
Blasto
(broad based budding yeast)
Causative agent?
Pneumococcus
(this is bulging TM in otitis media)
Organism?
Francisella tularensis
(oculoglandular tularemia - notice ulcer on inside of eyelid)
Which organism transmits this way?
Legionella (hot tubs, air conditioning units, etc; inhaled via contaminated vapor/mist = no human-to-human transmission)
What disease is described here?
Pertussis
(Bordetella pertussis)
Org?
MTB
(ghost cells on gram stain = mycolic acid repels stain and forms what looks like outline of cells)
Org?
Yersinia pestis
(“Chubby safety pin”; Gram - rod)
This area is endemic for what org?
Coccidioidomycetes
(Valley fever = arid climate of SW US)
Organism?
S. Pneumoniae
Dz?
Pneumococcus pneumonia
(in upper right lobe)
Org?
Nocardia
(G+ branching)
Causative agent?
Actinomyces
(causes abscesses in cervico-facial, jaw, pulmonary, and GI regions)
Org?
Influenza
(Virulence factors = NA, HA, M2, NS1)
Organism’s lifecycle?
Chlamydia
Which organism can cause disease in each of these sites?
Acinetobacter baumannii
Org?
Coccidioidomycetes
(notice the spherule = tissue form)
What dis is?
AdV
(notice hexon and penton proteins + icosahedral shape)
Disease?
Ulceroglandular tularemia
(Francisella tularensis)
Org?
Hantavirus
Organism?
Paramyxovirus = RSV, hMPV, hPIV
(notice the syncytium formation due to fusion protein)
These Rx treat what?
Influenza
(Amantadine = influenza A; olseltamivir = influenza A&B)
Cause?
AdV
(if tularemia, would have pus = bacterial vs. viral; also look for ulcer inside eyelid w/ tularemia)
Org?
CoV
(Notice: M protein, N protein, RNA genome, Spike protein, envelope protein)
Org?
Aspergillus
(A shaped hyphae)
Org?
Yersinia pestis
(“Chubby safety pin”; Gram - rod)
Transmission of what disease is depicted here?
Brucellosis
(Unpasturized cheese = brucella)
This show the structure of what org?
MTB
Dx?
Aspergilloma
Org?
Aspergillus
(notice the aspergilloma appearance)
Org?
Coccidioidomycetes
(Notice the spherule)
Dx?
Histoplasmosis
Org?
Pneumocystis
(yeah… the cysts)
