Pictures Flashcards
Label the structures that you can. Good luck! : )


What do these slides show?

the female ovary!
What is this showing?

This shows the follicular cells on the outside, the zona pellucida one layer lower & the primary oocyte would be hidden beneath the ZP.

What structures can you identify? At this stage do we have granulosa or follicular cells? What is that hole filled with?

Theca Externa
Theca Interna
Follicular Cells
*hole filled w/ follicular fluid
**granulosa cells at this stage b/c the theca interna cells are so round in shape
Which structures can you identify?

Can clearly see:
basal lamina
follicular cells
primary oocyte
zona pellucida
theca interna cells
**anything after this development point is definitely granulosa cells. Granulosa cells may also be present here.
What type of follicle is this? Which structures can you identify?

definitely a primary follicle unilaminar
**can see follicular cells, primary oocyte, nucleus, perhaps developing zona pellucida
What are those cells beneath the primary oocyte?

called cumulus oophorus
Identify the structures that you can.


What do those 2 red dotted lines show?

Early & late bloomers. Shows that growth can vary.
Which is more affected in this growth chart: height or weight? What might the cause be, then?

Height is more affected.
Likely an endocrine problem. In this patient, it turned out to be hypothyroidism.
What condition does this child likely have?

Hypopituitarism
He has a single central incisor & midline facial hypoplasia.
What condition does this child have?

Turner’s Syndrome
What condition does this child likely have?

Noonan’s
What condition does this child likely have?

Prader Willis Syndrome
What condition does this child likely have?

Russell-Silver Syndrome
What condition does this child likely have?

Noonan’s
What condition did this girl likely recovery from?

Cushing’s!
She lost a lot of weight after she went off of inhaled steroids as an asthma treatment.
What is the issue with the patient indicated on this growth chart?

Weight is more dramatically reduced.
This is probably a GI issue of malabsorption…could be Celiac, IBD, renal tubular acidosis
What condition might explain the results shown on this growth chart?

Exogenous Obesity
makes you hit puberty faster & grow taller & larger.
Label this slide.


What does the GL stand for? What does the TL stand for? What structure are we looking @ now?

GL: granulosa lutein cells
TL: theca lutein cells
**corpus luteum
What kind of tissue is this?

This is a corpus lutuem that has white scar tissue deposits. It is starting to die.
What structures do you see?

This is an ovary. You see primordial follicle in the ovarian cortex. In the medulla, you also see an interstitial gland. There is a unilaminar follicle.
Label the parts of the female anatomy.
