Random Path Flashcards
3 major components of acute inflammation
Vascular size change
Structural change(vasodilation)
Immigration of neutrophils
RUBOR(redness), CALOR(heat), DOLOR(pain), TUMOR(swelling)
cell types for chronic inflammation
macrophages, lymphocytes, plasma cells
granulomatous inflammation
inflammation with large collections of macrophages
4 types of necrosis
Coagulative- myocardial infarction
LiquiFactive- Fungal infection in Lungs
Caseous- TB
Fat necrosis
ACID
4 types of hypersensitivities
1: Anaphalactic
2: Cytotoxic
3. Immune-Mediated
4: Delayed
Anaphalactic hypersensitivity
Time:
Antibody type:
Example:
Type 1 hypersensitivity
5-30 minutes
Activates B-lymphocytes and IgE
Histamine release
food allergies
Cytotoxic hypersensitivity
Antibody type:
Example:
Type 2
IgG, IgM (grandMa)
GrandMa shoot at the enemy but cause destruction around it
Erythroblastoma fetalis, Rheumatic (heart valve) fever
Immune-complex-mediated hypersensitivity
Type 3
Mediated by antigen antibody complexes
Attacks neutrophils leading to lysosomal damage.
Systemic lupus erythematosus or penicillin reaction
Delayed/cell mediated hypersensitivity
Type 4
T lymphocytes encounter antigen, release leukokinin, leading to macrophage activation
TB skin test, contact dermatitis, corneal transplant rejection
systemic lupus erythematosus(SLE)
Femal 10:1 male
Malar rash
Antinuclear antibodies (ANA)
Joint pain
Rheumatoid arthritis
worse in morning
women
40-50 y/o
positive RF test
Sjogren’s syndrome
Effects exocrine cells
Dry mouth, dry eyes, arthritis
Temporal arteritis
Giant cell arteritis
55 Y/o+
scalp tenderness and jaw claudication.
Pt will often have polymyalgia rheumatica(stiff painful muscles)
C reactive proteins
Temporal biopsy
Wegners granulomatosis
systemic vasculitis involving upper res[iratory, lungs, and kidneys
Scleroderma
Disorder causing inflammation and vascular changes of skin and internal organs
Erythema Multiforme
Bullseye lesions
HSV
Pemphigus Vulgaris
Vulgar blistering of skin caused by IgG against desmosomes.
Nikolski test(pop blister)
Bullous Pemphigoid
Blistering disease caused by autoimmune response to hemidesmosomes
Oral lichen planus
No plan for cure
chronic inflammatory disorder
Wickhams striae-white papule/striations
RNA virus that uses reverse transcriptase to make viral DNA
HIV
Elisa test and western blot are used to confirm
HIV/AIDS
Lesion has a stuck on appearence. Tan colored
Seborrheic keratosis
Isolated dome shaped nodules on the face that mimic squamous cell carcinoma
keratoacanthoma
Slow growing squamous epithelial tumors(viral warts) caused by HPV. Can have skin tag appearance.
Papillomas
Yellow elevated plaque like lesions on the medial portion of the eyelid
xanthelasma
Chronic infectious skin condition caused by pox virus. If multiple nidules are present ,HIV may be present
Molluscum Contagiousm
Honey colored crusted lesions caiused by gram + infection
impetigo
Malignant melanoma
Most common cancer of young women
Depth is best prognostic indicator
ABCDE: asymetry, border iregularity, color differences, diameter and enlarging.
Basal cell carcinoma
Malignancy in babsal cell layer. Shiny, firm nodule.
Treat with biopsy or 5-FU
SCC
Malignancy in squamous layer.
Can arise from non-cancerous lesion actinic keratosis
most common cause of primary amenorrhea
No menstraul cycle
Turners syndrome(Xo)
