IgG4 AAA
Cystic medial degeneration w/o inflammation
aortic dissection
granulomatous inflamm w elastic lamina fragmentation
giant cell (temporal) arteritis
patchy and focal involveet: biopsy may be -
giant cell (temporal) arteritis
multinucleated giant cells
giant cell (temporal) arteritis
Healed areas: Intimal fibrosis (thickening) with medial scarring and luminal narrowing
giant cell (temporal) arteritis
Eventually: collagenous scarring with admixed chronic inflammatory cells in all 3 layers of the vessel wall
Takayasu Arteritis (pulseless disease)
non-grnaulomatous Segmental transmural fibrinoid necrotizing inflammation of renal and visceral aas (NOT pulmonary)
Polyarteritis Nodosa (PAN) -inflamm can weaken wall --> aneurysm/rupture/thrombosis
fibrinoid necrosis w neutrophilic/eosinophilic/monophilic infiltrates
Polyarteritis Nodosa (PAN)
Lesions usu only affect part of the vessel circumference with a predilection for branch points.
Polyarteritis Nodosa (PAN)
all lesions at same stage
Microscopic Polyangiitis (leukocytoclastic vasculitis/ hypersensitivity vasculitis)
non-grnaulomatous Segmental transmural fibrinoid necrotizing inflammation of renal and visceral aas
Microscopic Polyangiitis (leukocytoclastic vasculitis/ hypersensitivity vasculitis)
Fragmented (apoptotic) neutrophilic nuclei within and around vessel walls
Microscopic Polyangiitis (leukocytoclastic vasculitis/ hypersensitivity vasculitis)\ = (leukocytoclastic vasculitis).
granulomas and eos
Churg-strauss Syndrome (allergic granulomatosis and angiitis)
Non-specific TH17 cell involvement leads to recruitment of neutrophils.
Behcet Disease
giant cells w WBC infiltrate
Granulomatosis with Polyangiitis (Wegener Granulomatosis)
Granulomas may coalesce to form nodules that cavitate
Granulomatosis with Polyangiitis (Wegener Granulomatosis)
Upper resp tract: sinonasal and pharyngeal inflamm w granulomas and vasculitis
Granulomatosis with Polyangiitis (Wegener Granulomatosis)
Lower resp tract: multiple necrotizing granulomas, which may coalesce and cavitate
Granulomatosis with Polyangiitis (Wegener Granulomatosis)
Segmental, thrombosing, acute (neutrophils) and chronic inflammation (org and recanilization) Tibial and radial aa.’s
Thromboangiitis Obliterans (Buerger Disease)
Giant cell formation and secondary involvement of adjacent nerve and vein and they may all eventually have a common fibrous sheathe.
Thromboangiitis Obliterans (Buerger Disease)
contraction band necrosis or microscopic foci of granulation tissue and/or scar
Myocardial Vessel Vasospasm
neutrophils and monocytes in dilated lymphatics
lymphangitis
discrete red lesion in the skin or mucous membrane
Telangiectasia
Light pink-deep purple flat lesion on head or neck composed of dilated bvs
Nevus Flammeus
thin walled caps w scant stroma in the skin, SQ tissue, mucus mems (oral cavity and lips)
capillary hemangioma or pyogenic granuloma after trauma
cavernous blood-filled vascular space separated by CT stroma with indistinct/infiltrative borders
Cavernous Hemangioma
exudate (not RBC)filled, slightly elevated, blebs of small lymphatic channels lined with EC in head, neck, axillary SQ tissues
Simple (capillary) Lymphangioma
really lg unencapsulatd tumors in neck or axilla of children
Cavernous Lymphangioma (cystic hygromas
tumors from modified SMCs w big round nuclei
Glomus Tumor (glomangioma)
Skin lesion with localized red papules and nodules or round, subq mass
Bacillary Angiomatosis
Capillary proliferation with epithelioid ECs
Bacillary Angiomatosis
Lesions contain stromal neutrophils, nuclear dust and causal bacteria
Bacillary Angiomatosis
Pinkpurple patches of the LE with dilated, irregular EC lined spaces + lymphocytes, plasma cells & MΦ
classic KS
o Dermal accuulations of Dilated, jagged vasc channels lined w spindle cells and perivascular aggregates
classic KS
Difficult to recognize veins + plump, cuboidal neoplastic cells (~ epithelium
