Q

Pathology of Cystic Fibrosis in the pancreas

A

The pancreas is nearly always (90%) with CF patients. Inspissated secretions cause proximal duct obstruction leading to the two main changes in CF:
(1) Fibrosis (decreased T1 and T2 signal) and the more common one
(2) fatty replacement (increased Tl).

Q

Which type of patients diagnosed with CF tend to have more pancreatic problem? Why?

A

Patients with CF diagnosed as adults tend to have more pancreas problems than those diagnosed as children. Those with residual pancreatic exocrine function can have bouts of recurrent acute pancreatitis. Small (l-3mm) pancreatic cysts are common.

Transient Abnormal Myelopoiesis (TAM)

Most of the time (80%) it will get better on its own. The other 20% become myeloid leukemia of Down syndrome - hence the “preleukemic.”

A

ARPKD (AR Polycystic Kidney Disease)

61
Q

Describe the relationship of hepatic fibrosis and cystic formation in ARPKD

A

The degree of fibrosis is actually the opposite of cystic formation in the kidneys

bad kidneys ok liver, ok kidneys bad liver

62
Q

Hereditary Hemorriiagic Telangiectasia is a.k.a.?

A

Osler-Weber-Rendu

63
Q

Autosomal dominant disorder characterized by multiple AVMs in the liver and lungs.

A

Hereditary Hemorriiagic Telangiectasia (Osler-Weber-Rendu)

64
Q

Hereditary Hemorriiagic Telangiectasia (Osler-Weber-Rendu) can lead to what conditions?

A

It leads to cirrhosis, and a massively dilated hepatic artery.

65
Q

Diagnosis?

A

Hereditary Hemorriiagic Telangiectasia (Osler-Weber-Rendu)

liver shows heterogeneous perfusion pattern with millimetric hypervascular images disseminated throughout the hepatic parenchyma, referring to telangiectases and arteriovenous shunts that are no longer evident during the venous phase. The early venous drainage with the simultaneous opacification of the dilated hepatic veins and the hepatic artery is evident during arterial phase

66
Q

If you have prolonged newborn jaundice (>2 weeks), think about these things

A

(1) neonatal hepatitis
(2) Bihary Atresia.

67
Q

Diagnosis?SIgn?

Describe.

A

Biliary atresia

“Triangular cord sign” represents the fibrous ductal remnant of the extrahepatic bile duct in biliary atresia.

The common bile duct is not visualized. At the porta, only two structures are identified, the portal vein and hepatic artery. There is increased echogenicity along anterior wall of portal vein consistent with positive triangular cord sign.

68
Q

Patients with biliary atresia really only have atresia where?

A

Patients with biliary atresia really only have atresia of the ducts outside the liver (absence of extrahepatic ducts), in fact they have proliferation o f the intrahepatic ducts.

69
Q

Biliary atresia associated conditions

A

Polysplenia
Trisomy 18 (Edwards)

70
Q

Can the gallbladder be absent in Biliary atresia?

A

Gallbladder may be absent (normal gallbladder —supports neonatal hepatitis

71
Q

Prolonged jaundice + normal gallbladder =

A

Usually neonatal hepatitis.

72
Q

hereditary cholestasis from paucity of intrahepatic bile ducts, and peripheral pulmonary stenosis.

A

Alagille Syndrome

73
Q

What is the purpose of liver biopsy in biliary atresia?

A

Exclude Allagile syndrome

74
Q

How do you fully distinguish Biliary atresia?

A

Hepatobiliary Scintigraphy with 99m Tc-IDA

75
Q

If you see a peds patient with gallstones think of what?

A

Sickle Cell

76
Q

What happens to the spleen of kids in Sickle cell disease?

A

will typically enlarge progressively and then eventually auto-infarct and shrink (during the first decade).

77
Q

Enlargement of the spleen in sickle cell disease can cause what condition?

A

acute splenic sequestration crisis.

78
Q

This is the second most common cause of death in SC patients younger than 10.

A

Splenic Sequestration

the spleen becomes a greedy little pig and tries to hog all the blood for itself

79
Q

Gamesmanship:
Hx of abd pain + VS suggesting low volume (Inc HR, dec BP) + Splenomegaly =

A

Splenic Sequestration

Remember most kids with sickle cell will have smaller spleens (auto infarct) so a big spleen should be your clue.

80
Q

Diagnosis?

A

Splenic infarct showing “bright bands”

81
Q

Other problems you can run into if your spleen stays big in Sickle cell are?

A

bscess formation and large infarcts (not same as auto infarcts)

82
Q

Difference of massive infarct vs auto infarcted spleen?

A

it is typically the combined effort of numerous tiny, unnoticeable, and repetitive micro occlusions leading to progressive atrophy - This doesnt hur (large infarcts do

83
Q

When does Auto infarcted Spleen occur?

A

Early and is usually complete by age 8

84
Q

Diagnosis?

A

Auto Infarcted Spleen

a tiny (possibly calcified) spleen.

85
Q

'’Where is thefucking spleen ?” = Auto Infarct =

A

Sickle Cell

86
Q
A
87
Q

Gamesmanship: If you don’t see the spleen but you do see a gallbladder full of stones in a kid
less than 15 - you should think -

A

Sickle cell

88
Q

a rare condition where many organs in the chest and abdomen are formed abnormally, in the wrong position, or are even missing.

A

Heterotaxia
