Pathology Flashcards
Primary causes of Nephrotic syndrome
Minimal change
Focal segmented Glomerular sclerosis
membranous
Membranoproliferative
inflammation of the glans penis. Associated with poor hygiene - rare in circumcised individuals.
Balanitis
primary stage chancre heals within to weeks caused by treponemma pallidum
syphilis
morphology of N. gonorrhea
intracellular gram negative diplococci
the N. gono cause
acute purulent urethritis associated with prostatitis and epididymitis
Ch. trachomatis cause
non- gonococcal urethritis
Related to the accumulation of squamous cell & inflammatory debris
Carcinoma in situ
Infection with high-risk HPV
Carcinoma in situ
squamous cell carcinoma
Developmental failure of a testis to descend into the scrotum.
cryptorchidism
continuity of the tunica vaginalis with the peritoneal cavity
Hydrocele
Hydroceles can be distinguishedvclinically from solid testicular tumorsv by
physical examination and
transillumination.
blood accumulation of blood distending the
tunica vaginalis. Most often caused by trauma, or
occasionally due to a tumor.
Hematocele
varicose dilation of multiple veins of the
spermatic cord
Varicocele
sperm-containing cyst. Most often intratesticular.
Spermatocele
testicular atrophy
often unknown etiology
orchitis
trauma
disorder of hypothalamus or pitutary
hormonal therapy as estrogen
liver cirrhosis
cryptorchidism
klinefelter syndrome
chronic deblititating disease
old age
cause of bacterial orchitis
syphilis associated with epididymitis
cause of viral orchitis
mumps
causes of epididymitis
N. Gono
C. trachomatis
E.coli
M. tuberculosis
the most common testicular germ cell tumor
seminoma
Analogous to ovarian dysgerminoma
Seminoma
associated with increased serum hCG
Seminoma
Embryonal carcinoma
choriocarcinoma
give metastases to abdominal lymph nodes
Seminoma
Comprised of three distinct cell types, lacks ITGCN with no significant lymphocytic response
spermatocytic seminoma
large cells withcentrally located nuclei and
prominent nucleoli. Fibrous septa separate nests of tumor cells
Seminoma
compare between spermatocytic and conventional seminoma
spermatocytic: no ITGCN no lymphocytic response
conventional: have ITGCN and lymphocytic inflitrate
