Renal and male urogen Patho Pots Flashcards
1
Q
Gross Acute Pyelonephritis (6)
A
- microabscesses along collecting ducts
- hyperaemic medullary pyramids
- kidney is mildly enlarged from edema
- pelvicalyceal system not dilated
- no calculus
- microabscesses seen on subcapsular surface of kidney
2
Q
Histo Acute Pyelonephritis (2)
A
- microabscesses have neutrophils
- interstitium and renal tubules have necrotic material
3
Q
gross chronic nephritis (5)
A
- subcapsular surface has cortical scars that are coarse, pitted, U-shaped and irregular
- kidney is smaller
- parenchymal atrophy - thinning cortex and blurring of corticomedullary junction
- no suppuration or hyperaemia compared to acute pyelonephritis
- dilated pelvicalyceal system compared to undilated in acute
4
Q
Histo Chronic pyelonephritis (4)
A
- thyroidisation of tubules - tubular atrophy with eosinophillic hyaline material in lumen (shows bright pink)
- interstitial fibrosis with plasma and lymphocytes
- fibrotic glomeruli, periglomerular fibrosis
- low power slide shows dark patchy areas indicative of inflammatory infiltrates
5
Q
Gross Tuberculous Pyelonephritis (5)
A
- kidney is enlarged with irregular scarred capsular surface
- cortex shows caseous necrosis with parenchymal atrophy - thinning
- pelvicalyceal system shows dilation with rough mucosa - caseous slough
- thick and short ureter, fibrotic
- thickened and fibrous bladder wall
6
Q
Gross Kidney Infarct (4)
A
- Subcapsular pale, wedge shaped areas o coagulative necrosis (infarct)
- Hyperaemic borders - compensatory and inflammatory
- Normal Size and shape
- normal pelvicalyceal system
7
Q
Histo Kidney Infarct (3)
A
1&2. coagulative necrosis - loss of nuclei in glomeruli and retained cell structure
3. intraluminal debris
8
Q
Gross Acute Tubular Necrosis (4)
A
- Cortex is pale with medullary pyramids being comparatively darker
- distict corticomedullary junction
- normal kidney shape and size, no shrinking of renal cortex
- normal pelvicalyceal system
9
Q
Histo Acute tubular Necrosis (3)
A
- cells show varying degrees of Swelling, vacuolation, necrosis , flattening and sloughing
- loss of periodic acid-schiff positive brush border
- tubular dilation and interstitial edema
10
Q
Gross End Stage Kidney (4)
A
- Bilaterally shunken
- fine ,granular subcapsular surface
- cut surface shows thinning cortex and medulla - parenchymal atrophy
- blurring of corticomedullary junction
11
Q
Histo End Stage Kidney (3)
A
- thyroidisation of tubules - intraluminal hyaline material
- interstitial fibrosis and inflammation
- sclerosed glomeruli
very similar to chronic pyelonephritis
12
Q
Gross Hydronephrosis - due to calculus (5)
A
- presence of calculus at pelvicalyceal system/ proximal ureter
- enlarged kidneys
- dilation of pelvicalyceal system
- severe thinning of renal parenchyma
- capsule appears translucent
13
Q
Histo Hydronephrosis (4)
A
- Dilated tubules and bowmans capsules
- atrophy and flattening of tubular epithelium
- interstitial fibrosis
- disappearance o glomeruli
14
Q
gross Congenital Polycystic Disease - kidney, liver, pancreas (4)
A
- kidneys bilaterally enlarged
cysts - multiple, varying in size
- non-communicating
- smooth inner surface
15
Q
Histo Congenital Polycystic Disease (4)
A
- numerous cyst in parenchyma
- lined by cuboidal epithelium
- tubular atrophy
- interstitial fibrosis and chronic inflammation
