A

Mekel’s diverticulum (true)- dt failure of the viteline duct to involute

37
Q

what is, and what is the pathogenesis of Celiac disease?

A

Autoimmune damage of smll bowel villi:
Gliadin (gluten protein found in wheat) is absorbed, deamidated (by tTG) and presented by APCs via MHC II to helper T cells–> mediate damage

38

A

HLA-DQ2
HLA-DQ8
also associated with dermatitis herpetiformis (small vessicles arise on skin dt IgA deposition at ttips of dermal papillae)

39

IgA antibodies against:

  1. tissue transglutaminase (tTG)
  2. endomysium
  3. deamidated gliadin peptides
40
Q

What is seen on duodenal bx in celiac disease? (3) and where is this damage MC found?***

A
  • ****MC found in duodenum (less in jejunum and ileum):
    1. villous atrophy
    2. crypt hyperplasia
    3. lymphocytic infiltrate
41
Q

Celiac dz shows increased risk of what

A
  • T-cell lymphoma

- small bowel CA

42
Q

What is sequelae of tropical sprue and how/why?***

A

Damage in tropical sprue is similar to that of celiac dz except it is ***found MC in the jejunum and ileum. This leads to megalobastic anemia dt:

  1. Folate deficiency (jejunal absorption)
  2. B12 deficiency (ileal absorption)
43
Q

Carcinoid tumors: tumor cells contain what and stain for what?

A

contain neurosecretory granules and stain chromogranin (+)

44
Q

What is the pathogenesis of carcinoid syndrome and when does it not occur?

A

carcinoid tumor of the gut releases 5HT which mediates sx of carcinoid syndrome. If the tumor is located only in the gut, 5HT is mtbolized into 5-HIAA (which has no effects)- so carcinoid syndrome requires mets to liver so that metabolization of 5HT can be bypassed

45
Q

What is the pathogenesis of carcinoid heart disease? what side of the Heart is it seen in and why?

A

5HT hits RH –> ^collagen –> fibrosis and valvular disease (tricuspid regurg, pulmonary valve stenosis)

Left side is not involved bc the lung contains MAO which metabolizes 5HT so that it never reaches the left heart

46
Q

A

Assc with Down Syndrome

Dx = Rectal suction bx

47
Q

what condition improves with defecation

A

IBS

48
Q

what causes diverticulitis? where and how presents?

A

fecal material obstructs a colonic diverticula, usually in the sigmoid colon

CP: LLQ pain, fever, leukocytosis

49
Q

what are the 2 MC types of colonic polyps? what is their malignant potential *****and how do they look in micro?

A

Hyperplastic = MC: hyperplasia of glands gives it a serrated appearance (no malignant potential- duh- hyperplasia only)
Adenomatous = 2nd MC: neoplastic proliferation looks like darker glands (dt hyperchromaticism)- may progress to adenocarcinoma**
1. can be tubular= flat polyp = less malignant
2. villous = fingerlike = most malignant potential
3. tubulovillous = intermediate potential

50
Q

what are the 3 mutations in the adenoma-carcinoma sequence and what does each cause

A
  1. APC = ^risk of polyp formation
  2. KRAS = polyp formation occurs
  3. p53 = ^COX production and carcinoma
51
Q

What can impede progression from adenoma to carcinoma? how?

A

Aspirin! - it stops COX production increased by p53 mutation

52
Q

what polyp has higher malignant potential:
tubular or villous?
sessile or pedunculated?
below or above 2cm?

A

villous, sessile, >2cm

Crohns: RLQ pain (ileum) maybe or maybe not diarrhea

67
Q

Q

Crohns vs Ulcerative colitis: Gross appearance (imaging)

A

UC: psuedopolyps, loss of haustra = “lead pipe sign”

Crohns: Cobblestone mucosa, strictures, “creeping fat”, string sign on imaging

69
Q

Crohns vs Ulcerative colitis: complications*****(risk based on what?)

A

UC: Toxic megacolon***(dilated), increased risk for CRC - based on extent and duration
