Patho Semi Until Midterm Flashcards
Amyloidosis diagnose
Congo red apple green birefringence and electron microscope
Amyloidosis classification
A)systemic: Immunocyte dyscrasis Reactive systemic amyloidosis Hemodialysis associated Hereditary familial
B)Localized:
Senile cerebral – Alzheimer’s disease
Atrial
Endocrine Amyloid -medullary carcinoma and type 2 dm
Hyalinization
Tissue degenerates into translucent glass like substance hyaline
Transudate
Protein content less than 3 mg over milliliters
Exudate
Protein content more than 3 mg are in milliliters
Edema causes
Inflammation,lymphangitis , tumor nephrosis syndrome liver failure malnutrition decreased album in concentration locally define thrombosis generalized heart failure plus renin angiotensin fluid retention and acute renal failure /salt and water retention
Lung edema cause
Cardiogenic Left heart failure hydrostatic pressure increase
Noncardiogenic vascular permeability increase;
Toxic damage
renal failure
hypoxia
fluid and electrolyte management disorder (iatrogenic infusion mis management)
Congestion = passive hyperthermia
Systemic heart failure
local venous occlusion
acute
chronic leads to parenchymatous degeneration and necrosis
Acute lung congestion
Longs are heavy firm elastic
Alveolar capillaries engorged with blood
Chronic lung congestion
Induratio brunea pulmonis (firm and brownish)
Fibrotic septa
Hemosiderin laden macrophage (heart failure cells)
Lung congestion is caused by
Left heart failure
Chronic liver congestion look
Nutmeg liver (hepar moschatum)
Dilation of central veins
Fatty degeneration
Hepar moschatum
Centralobular stasis and sinusoidal dilation
Liver fibrosis
Chronic complication
Dilation of central vein
Fatty degeneration
Periportal/septal fibrosis
Disseminated intravascular coagulopathy. DIC
Endothelial damage Thrombi in microcirculatory system Coagul. Factors, thrombocytes are consumed Fibrinolysis is active SEVERE BLEEDING PTAH STAIN
Thrombus cause (virchows triad)
Decrease blood flow (stasis)/ turbulence
endothelial injury
hypercoagulability of the blood
Localisation of thrombus
Arterial: white thrombus
Veneous: red thrombus
Heart chamber: embolus
Fate of thrombus
Propagation
embolization
dissolution
organization and recanalization
Forms of embolism
Thromboembolism Air embolism fat embolism amniotic fluid embolism bacterial embolism tumor embolism foreign body embolism
Shock
Collapse of circulation characterized by hypotension and failure of microcirculation
Cardiogenic, Hypovolemic, Septic, Neurogenic, Anaphylactic, Endocrine
(Trauma)
Consequences of shock
Hypotension (systemic vasodilation )
decreased myocardial contractility
Endothelial damage and activation >ARDS
activation of coagulation cascade>DIC
Morphology of shock
Kidney-ischemia, acute tubular necrosis,,shock kidney,,
Lung-diffuse alveolar damage>ARDS
Liver-microthrombus formation>centrilobular necrosis
GI tract-erosions
Endocrine Organs-hemorrhage in adrenal gland,pancreas,hypophysis
Fat embolism
Stain=Sudan 3 Neutral fatty acids(red) Cause= Mechanical-bone fraction Biochemical-sepsis/trauma >systemic release of fatty acids
Hemodynamic disorders
Hyperemia( active and passive ) edema hemorrhage thrombosis embolism infarction shock
Hyperemia meaning
LOCALLY increased blood volume
Can be active or passive(congestion)
Active hyperemia
Active dilation of arteriae, arterioles, capillaries
Erythema (oxygenated blood accumulation)
Forms ; physiological and pathological
Passive hyperemia
Congestion Dilation of veneous side due to decreased outflow Cyanosis Hypoxia Causes: Local:thrombosis, obstruction Systemic:congestive heart failure
Left sided heart failure
Lungs =heavy firm (ct accumulation)
Hf cells on microscopy Induratio Brunea Pulmonum
Right sided heart failure
Right ventricle function comprimised
LIVER :
nutmeg liver (hepar moschatum) centrulobular necrosis cardiac fibrosis(cirrhosis-misnomer)
Right sided heart failure
KIDNEY
stellate veins accentuated
cortex widened
sharp separation of medulla and cortex
Right Sided Heart Failure
SPLEEN
enlarged, livid
fibrosis with time (Induratio
cyanotica lienis)
Right Sided Heart Failure
SKIN
cyanosis, anasarca
Right sided heart failure
BODY CAVITIES
Ascites, hydrothrox
Hemosiderin
iron-storage complex that is composed of partially digested ferritin and lysosomes
The breakdown of heme
Local chronic congestion
May occur in every organ
Vena cava superior syndrome
Budd Chiary syndr (hepatic vein thrombosis)
Extremities etc
Superior vena cava syndrome
Lung cancer, cancer in mediastinum compresses sup. Vena cava
Head and neck cyanosis
Edema
-INCREASED INTRAVASCULAR HYDROSTATIC PRESSURE (arteriolar dilation or impaired venous return)
(LOCAL- eg. Deep venous thrombosis of the legs, SYSTEMIC- eg. Congestive heart failure)
– DECREASED PLASMA COLLOID OSMOTIC PRESSURE (eg. nephrosis sy, cirrhosis, protein
malnutrition)
– LYMPHATIC OBSTRUCTION
(lymphedema, elephantiasis)
– SALT AND WATER RETENTION (GN, Acute renal failure)
– INFLAMMATION (EXUDATE)
Normal hemostasis sequence of events
Arteriolar vasoconstriction (major regulator: endothelin)
Platelet adherence, activation and aggregation Primary hemostasis (major regulator: ECM)
Fibrin meshwork creation, additional platelet recruitment Secondary hemostasis (major regulator:Tissue factor)
