PP - Pathology history continues Flashcards
Leonardo di ser Piero da Cinci
-described as the archetype of the Renaissance Man; a man on multiple activity and inventive imagination
Pathology def:
the study of disease
What is regressive lesions?
- changes in the structure of normally developed cells, tissues or organs, which usually interfere with their function
Cellular adaptation to injury:
- atrophy
- intracellular adaptations (degeneration)
- cell death (necrosis)
Regressive lesions:
- cellular adaptation to injury
- inborn abnormalities
Developmental abnormalities (organ-specific malformations)
- aganesia (a lack of organ anlage)
- aplasia
- hypoplasia (incomplete development)
- atresia (complete failure of development of the intestinal/ duct lumen)
- double organs
- ectopy (abnormally located tissue)
Hypoplasia def:
incomplete development
Atresia def:
complete failure of development of the intestinal/ duct lumen
Ectopy def:
- abnormally located tissue
- organ parenchyma located outside of the normal anatomic location
Aganesia def:
a lack of organ anlage
What is duodenal atresia associated with?
Down´s syndrome or other anomalities
When do ppl get atresia?
- it presents early in life with vomiting
- treated surgically
Give example of double organs:
ureteral duplication
Ectopy ang.:
- aberrant pancreas
- accessory pancreas
- ectopic pancreas
- pancreatic rest
What did Heinrich do?
he histologically classified heterotropic pancreatic tissue
What is the histological classification of heterotropic pancreatic tissue?
- Type I
- Type II
- Type III
Type I (classification of heterotropic pancreatic tissue)
normal pancreatic tissue (preserved lobular structure, visible islets and pancreatic ducts)
Type II (classification of heterotropic pancreatic tissue)
abnormal structure, no islets
