Pathomorpholgy Flashcards
Typhoid fever
Ulcers in small intestine
Peritonitis
Fibroma
Dense/hard tumor
Composed of fibrous tissue
Poly cystic kidney
Granular surface
Fluid filled cavity
Necrotic kidney (nephrosis)
Light grey cortical layer
Dark red medullary layer
Lung fever (Diffused pneumonia)
Muddy liquid exudate
Meningitis
Purulent = meningococal * Purulent exudate * Yellow green coloured cap Haemorrhagic = anthrax * Scarlet hat
Papilloma
Tumour that contains papillary surface
Fibropurulent peritonitis
Purulent = Pus Fibrino = Coating that can be removed
Uremia
Cause of kidney disease (can lead to death)
Increase of urea due to decreased kidney function
MI
Gross = change in color of myocardium (e.g. Yellow) Micro = absent nucleus
Liver/alcohol cirrhosis
KW: Pseudo lobules
Asthma
Reagin reaction
Metaplasia
Change of growth of cells (tumors etc)
Fibroadenoma
KW: Gland structures of different size and shape
Tuberculosis
KW: Horseshoe nuclei in macrophages (Langhan Giant Cells)
Anthracosis
Coal dust from in miners lungs
KW: Black lung tissue
Rheumatic fever
KW: Aschoff Giant Cells
Mixed infection in the colon and intestines
Caused by E.coli
Dirty ulcer
Uneven borders
Haemorrhage
Rhinoscleroma/scleroma
KW: Mikulich cells
Septic bacterial endocarditis
Multiple systems affected (kidney, spleen, brain etc) = sepsis
Thrombus on aortic valve = endocarditis
Gas gangrene
Common in diabetes
- Oedema
- Black
- Smell
- No clear boarders
Pyelonephritis
Indications of inflammation
Bronchopneumonia
Inflammation in the lung
Bronchus needs to be mentioned
Portal hypertension
Liver cirrhosis + liver carcinoma
Status asthmaticus
Unusual attack of asthma which does not respond to bronchodilators
Long lasting
Antigen stimulation
Enlargement of lymph nodes near infected wound
Purulent necrosis
Bright red tissue to yellow grey tissue = necrosis
Caused by bacteria = purulent
Mastitis
Inflammation of the mammary gland
Exudate present
Cushings 3 main symptoms
Hypertension
Hyperglycemia
Obseity
Ulcerative endocarditis
Ulcerative covering of the external surface of the aortic valve
Atherosclerosis
Causes ischemia
In brain = ischemic stroke
In heart = angina/MI
