Q

The bone marrow produces

A

platelets, erythrocytes, granulocytes (neutrophils, eosinophils, and basophils), monocytes and probably the bursa equivalent of B lymphocytes.

  2. Lymphoid hyperplasia (reactive lymph nodes)
  3. Neoplasia
56
Q

Denotes the inflammation of the lymph node (a misnomer because a lymph node is not a gland).

A

Lymphadenitis

57

62
Q

The most common being lymphosarcoma

A
  1. Neoplasia
63
Q

There is increased number of macrophages. In some cases there may be difficulty in differentiating from neoplasia because of high cellularity and large number of immature cells

A
  1. Lymphoid hyperplasia (reactive lymph nodes)
64
Q

There are 3 conditions that cause a reduction in the size of lymph nodes and are as follows:

A

1) Senile atrophy
2) Immunodeficiency disease
3) Lymphoid exhaustion

65
Q

part of aging process

A

1) Senile atrophy

65
Q

following chronic infection with destruction of lymphoid tissues.
It is characterized by hypocellularity of the cortex and medulla.

A

Lymphoid exhaustion

65
Q
  • Common findings includes lack of germinal centers and paracortical T-cells, or even absence of lymph nodes (e.g. in combined immunodeficiency syndromes of Arab foals).
A

2) Immunodeficiency disease

65
Q

constitute the single largest component of the reticuloendothelial system

A

spleen

66
Q

It performs numerous function including

A

hematopoiesis,
iron metabolism,
filtration and phagocytosis,
remodeling of red blood cells, and
removal of intracytoplasmic inclusions.

67
Q

. It also serve as a very large reservoir of blood and carries on various immunologic functions.

A

spleen

68
Q

In domestic animal species, the commonly encountered notable changes in the spleen during necropsy is related to its

A

size

69
Q

both refer to a localized enlargement of the spleen.

A

localized splenomegaly and splenic mass

70
Q

Splenic masses are either:

A
  1. Neoplastic
    2.Non-neoplastic
71
Q

commonly encountered splenic masses which are neoplastic include hemangioma and hemangiosarcoma, and lymphosarcoma. Others include leiomyosarcoma, leiomyoma, myelolipoma and occasional lymphoma.

A

Neoplastic

72
Q

include hematoma, localized congestion and nodular hyperplasia.

A

.Non-neoplastic

72
Q

There are four major categories of diffuse splenomegaly and are as follows:

A

1) Inflammatory and infectious splenomegaly
2) Hyperplastic splenomegally -
3) Congestive splenomegally
4) Infiltrative splenomegaly

73
Q

due to splenitis and the enlargement is due to an increase in the number of lymphocytes, reticuloendothelial cells, neutrophilic granulocytes and erythrocytes in varying proportions.

A

1) Inflammatory and infectious splenomegaly

74
Q

Most causes are:

A

infectious or granulomatous diseases

75
Q

Changes that accompany splenitis include

A

lymphoreticular hyperplasia and hematogenous infiltration with inflammatory cells.

75
Q

Splenitis can be classified as either acute, subacute, or chronic based on the course of the disease. It can also be classified based on the predominant cell types or exudate as:

A

a) Suppurative splenitis
b) Necrotizing splenitis
c) Eosinophilic splenitis
d) Lymphoplasmacytic splenitis
e) Granulomatous splenitis

76
Q

when the predominating cell type is the neutrophil; the common cause include septicemic infections with pyogenic bacteria, bacterial infection secondary to torsion, protozoal infection like Toxoplasmosis and some mycobacterial infections like tuberculosis.

A

a) Suppurative splenitis

77
Q

when necrosis predominate; most commonly caused by gas-forming anaerobes, Salmonellosis and viral disease like canine hepatitis, and splenic infarction.

A

b) Necrotizing splenitis

78
Q

when lymphocytes and plasma cells predominate; occur in association with subacute and chronic disorders such as infectious canine hepatitis, erhlichiosis, pyometra, brucellosis, and hemobartonellosis.

A

d) Lymphoplasmacytic spleniti

79
Q

when eosinophils predominate; observed in hypereosinophilic syndromes in dogs and cats.

A

c) Eosinophilic splenitis

80
Q

when the predominant cell types are macrophages, epithelioid cells, lymphocytes and giant cell; occur in systemic mycosis and in some mycobacterial infections.

A

e) Granulomatous splenitis -

81
Q

. This condition is associated with hemolytic disorders including hemolytic anemia, and drug induced hemolysis.

A

2) Hyperplastic splenomegally

81
Q

The enlargement is due to hyperplasia of the reticuloendothelial and lymphoid components

A

2) Hyperplastic splenomegally

81
Q

The spleen have a great capacity to store blood, and under normal circumstances may store between 10-20% of the total blood volume

A

3) Congestive splenomegally

81
Q

Conditions that cause congestive splenomegally include:

A

Tranquilizers and anesthetics
Portal hypertension

82
Q

resulting from right-sided congestive heart failure, obstruction of caudal vena cava by neoplasia, or of worms (as in caval syndrome of dirofilariasis).

A

Portal hypertension

82
Q

the enlargement is due to infiltration of the spleen with neoplastic cells, splenic extramedullary hematopoiesis, and amyloid

A

4) Infiltrative splenomegaly

83
Q

barbiturates and increase blood pooling by relaxing the smooth muscle of the splenic capsule resulting to pooling of blood;

A

Tranquilizers and anesthetics

83
Q

amyloid

A

(“sago spleen”).

84
Q

Other changes in the spleen

A

1) Dystopia
2) Accessory spleen
3) Rupture of the Spleen
4) Atrophy
5) Pigments

85
Q

common in small animals and result from trauma. This may result to death due to massive hemorrhage. If eventually the rupture heals, extra-splenic tissues may be found scattered in the mesenteries and omentum.

A

3) Rupture of the Spleen

85
Q

congenital and acquired defect of the diaphragm result to displacement of the spleen. However, no vascular engorgement occur that differentiate this condition to splenic torsion.

A

1) Dystopia

85
Q

these are nodules or masses of splenic tissue seeded in the omentum which may be due to congenital defects or following trauma. They are of no pathologic significance except as an indicator of previous soft tissue injury.

A

2) Accessory spleen

85
Q

as part of senile change; also may be observed in animals which dies of hemorrhage (shrunken spleen). The spleen is dry and may have a fibrous texture.

A

4) Atrophy

86
Q

Hemosiderin and calcium may accumulate as subcapsular yellow pigmented calcareous bodies (Subcapsular siderotic nodules or plaques; Gamma-Gandy bodies) which are of no pathologic significance except an indication of previous hemorrhage.

A

5) Pigments

86
Q

is a lobular composite organ of epithelial and lymphoid tissues, and reaches maximum development depending on the species, at the time of birth or up to puberty.
