Kwashiorkor
Autopsy findings in RDS
Eosinophilic membranes lining the alveolar walls
If patient was admitted at the NICU for 7 weeks maintained on >21% FiO2, but was assessed to require the same FiO2 at discharge, but then several days after, he eventually expired, and autopsy shows decrease in alveolar septatiotn, what’s the dx?
Bronchopulmonary dysplasia, moderate 📌
How to prevent rh incompat reaction
RhIg in 28 weeks and within 72 hours prior to deliveery
Findings in neuroblastoma
Sheets of small, roiuond, blue cells with occasional formation of HOMER-WRIGHT ROSETTES
Bp 220/110, autopsy of kidney shows “onion skin”, concentric, laminated thickening of the walls of arterioles, with luminal narrowing and necrotizing arteriolitis
Hyperplastic arteriolosclerosis
65/F, severe headache, fever. Tenderness over thee course of SUPERFICIAL TEMPORAL ARTERY. What’s the dx and biopsy results
Giant cell arteritis
Biopsy: intimal thickening, medial granulomatous inflammtaion with fragmentation of internal elastic lamina, CD4+ T cell infiltrates, and multinucleated giant cells
Remark/s on Takayasu arteritis
Young female
Weight loss, fever
Weak pulses in the caroties and upper extremeties
Ocular disturbances and neurologic deficits
Morphologic findings same as giant cell arteritis
Remark/s on polyarteritis nodosa
Biopsy: segmental transmural necrotizing inflammation with extensive FIBRINOID NECROSIS (hallmark of type III HSR) and TEMPORAL GETEROGENEITY of lesions
Remarks on kawasaki disease
Biopsy: segmental transmural necrotizing inflammation with less fibrinoid necrosis
45/m presented with hemoptysis and hematuria
Serology: p-ANCA (+) dx?
Microscopic polyangiitis
MPO-ANCA (+)
Vasculitis pattern similar to PAN, but lesions are of the SAME STAGE and fragmented PMNs in post-capillary venules (LEUKOCYTOCLASIA) are present
Also p-ANCA positive
churg Strauss syndrome
MPO-ANCA ()
Vasculitis pattern similar to PAN but with extravascular necrotizing granulomas and eosinophils
Vasculitis with involvement of kidneys, upper and lower airways
GRANULOMATOSIS WITH POLYANGIITIS (formerly Wegener granulomatosis)
C-ANCA (+)
PR3-ANCA (+)
Crescentric glomerulonehrptis with negative findings on immunofluorescence
