this rbc it appears crenated, small, rough cells and crinkles cells
a. diluted urine
b. hypersthenuric urine
c. hyposthenuric urine
hypertonic urine
- rough
normal rbc - smooth
glitter cells
a. hypertonic urine wbc
b. hypotonic urine wbc
c. hypertonic urine rbc
d. hypotonic urine rbc
hypotonic urine
glitter cells with SPARKLING APPEARANCE because of bowmian movement
what color of neutrophil if it will stain with Steinheimer malbin stain
a. violet
b. light blue
c. red orange
steinheimer malbin stain- neutrophil will turn LIGHT BLUE instead of violet that usually seen neutrophil
this cell is primarily associated with drug induced interstitial nephritis
a. neutrophil
b. eosinophil
c, lymphocytes
eosinophil
- it can seen on drug induced interstitial nephritits
uti
renal transplant rejection (eo and lympho)
term used in increase urinary wbcs
a, pyuria
b. anuria
c. leukocyturia
pyuria and leukocyturia
most predominant wbc cells can be seen
a. lymphocytes
b neutrophil
c. eosinphild
neutrophil - most predominant
lymphocytes - predominant in urine patients experiencing renal transplant rejection
eosinophil - not normally seen
it originates form the lower portion of male urethra
a. SEC
b. TEC
c. RTE
SEC - originates from lining of vaginal and female urethra and also in lower portion of male urethra
TEC - originates from the lining of renal pelvis, calyces ureters and bladder and from the upper portion of male urethra
originates from lining of vaginal and female urethra
a. SEC
b. TEC
c. RTE
SEC - originates from lining of vaginal and female urethra and also in lower portion of male urethra
TEC - originates from the lining of renal pelvis, calyces ureters and bladder and from the upper portion of male urethra
it originates form the upper portion of male urethra
a. SEC
b. TEC
c. RTE
SEC - originates from lining of vaginal and female urethra and also in lower portion of male urethra
TEC - originates from the lining of renal pelvis, calyces ureters and bladder and from the upper portion of male urethra
they are largest cells can be found in urine.
they appear as flagstone shaped with distinct shaped borders
a. SEC
b. TEC
c. RTE
a. squamous epithelial cells
it is pathologic squamous epithelial cell covered with Gardnerella vaginalis cocobacillus
a. blue cells
b. clue cells
c. synctia
a. clue cells
- secc covered with G. vaginalis
synctia (clumps) is a rte cells that will undergo catherization
forms of transitional epithelial cells that may appear large
a. caudate
b. spherical
c. polyhedral
spherical - cells with direct contact with urine and it absorb large of water
epithelial cells that may have several forms polyhedral, caudate, spherical, pear shape an may have tail like projections
a. SEC
b. TEC
c. RTE
transitional epithelial cells
larger RTE cells came from what tubules?
a. pct
b. dct
e. collecting ducts
pct- larger than other rte cells may form a rectangular shape
DCT- smaller than those came from pct; round or oval
collecting duct - may have 3 groups; large sheet of cells
this RTE cells is indication of severe tubular injury with basement disruption
a. renal fragments
b. synctia
c. leukocyturia
renal fragments - came from collecting duct with a group of three or more
- indication of severe tubular basement membrane drisruption
how to differentiate RTE cells from Spherical forms of TEC
a. supravital stain
b. stainheimer malbin stain
c. wright stain
supravital stain and centrally located nucleus
