Compressive - pneumothorax, hydrothorax, bloat, neoplasm. Obstructive - exudate, parasites, neoplasms, foreign material.

107
Q

Describe the lung tissue associated with atelectasis?

A

dark red, flabby and depressed below the surface of surrounding lung. Micro: alveolar walls are gongested and in close opposition.

108
Q

Two types of Emphysema?

A

Alveolar and Interstitial

109
Q

What causes alveolar emphysema?

A
  1. Pressure of inhaled air 2. Incompletely closed bronchioles,
110
Q

Lesions of alveolar emphysema?

A

excessive air in the alveoli –> abnormal, permanent enlargement of albeoli with destruction of alveolar walls. Emphysematous areas are raised, pale or whilte, dry, and can be easily compressed. Usually alternates with areas of atelectasis.

111
Q

What causes interstitial emphysema?

A

Forced respiratory efforts. 1. when death is followed by violent efforts in anoxia. 2. during quick loss of blood in trauma, slaughter or fully conscious animal. 3. death after protracted illness.

112
Q

Where is air found with interstitial emphysema?

A

Air collects in connective tissue of lungs (interalveolar septa, interlobular septa, below pleura, around bronchi and blood vessels.)

113
Q

In what animal is Interstitial emphysema mostly commonly found? Why?

A

In cattle. Developed interlobular septa and lack of collateral ventilation in adjacent lobules –> thick, shiny septa filled with bubbles.

114
Q

what is the most commonly encountered pulmonary abnormality?

A

Plumonary edema= very important**

115
Q

Two categories of causes for pulmonary edema?

A

Non-Inflammatory = increase in capillary hydrostatic pressure. Inflammatory = increasing permeability of the air-blood barrier

116
Q

118
Q

A

Diffuse alveolar damage due to… 1. systemic diseases 2. direct injury to lungs. 3. leasions in other organ systems.

120
Q

Pathogenesis of ARDS?

A

Triggering of macrophages to release large amounts of cytokines –>s prime neutrophils in lung and capillairies –> release enzymes and free radicals –> diffuse endothelial/epithelial changes –> permeability edema –> accumulation of inflammatory cells,

121

A

Bacteria, mycoplasma, apriration of feed/gastric content

130
Q

Leasions of Suppurative Bronchopeumonia?

A

* Supporutive, cranioventral lobular pattern= bronchopnuemonia* Always cranio-ventral. Mosaic apperance (red/gray).

134
Q

Sequelae of Suppurative Brochopneumonia?

A

Usually resolves within a few weeks. Complications:

  1. Death by toxemia and hypoxia.
  2. May cause metastatic abscesses in other organs.
  3. May become chronic.
  4. Plugging of bronchi and resultant atelectasis.
135
Q

Lesions of Fibrinous bronchopneumonia?

A

Starts lobular –> involves part or complete lobe. Fibrinous rather than neutrophilic exudate found on pleural surfaces, septa, alveoli and thoracic cavity. Marbled pattern.

136
Q

***Etiology of fibrinous bronchopneumonia by spp.?

A

Strong pathogens are involved. Cattle: M. hemolytica, Mycoplasma mycoides, Hemophilus somnus. Swine: P. multocida, Actinobacillus pleuropneumonia. Sheep/Goats: M. hemolytica, mycoplasma mycoides (mainly in goats)

137
Q

Complications of Fibrinous Pneumonia?

A

Inflmmatory responses are more severe than suppurative pneumonia –> rarely resolves. 1. Death is more frequesnt due to pleuritis and pericarditis. 2. Necrosis with formation of pulmonary sequestra (Foci of coagulative necrosis encapsulated by connecti

138
Q

Predisposing causes of Aspriation Pneumonia?

A

Any cause of dysphagia or regurgitation. Pharyngeal paralysis and megaesophagus.

139
Q

Lesions of aspiration pneumonia?

A

Liquid gruel or inhaled milk - widespread distribution. Plant material, dry dusty particulate food - localized lesions = descrete foreign body granulomas, lobar pneumonia or gangrene. Aspriration of vomitus –> edema development. Long standing cases –

140
Q

Interstitial Pneumonia is what?

A

An inflammator condition confined to the alveolar walls and alveolar intersitium

141
Q

Interstitial pneumonia etiology? (2)

A
  1. Aerogenous injury –> alveolar epithelium 2. Hematogenous Injury –> Alveolar capillaries
142
Q

What can cause hematogenous injury to the alveolar capillaries resulting in intersitial pneumonia? (5)

A
  1. intermitent bacteriemia (E.coli, lepto, salmonela, lung worms, toxoplasma and migrating parasites). 2. DIC. 3. Ingested toxins like moldy sweet potatoes. 4. Allergic condition type III. 5. endotoxins (paraquate).
143
Q

What are the 4 phases of Intersitial pneumonia?

A
  1. Acute - injury to type I pneumocytes. 2. Exudative phase - inflammatory edema accumulates in the alveolar interstitium –> thickening of alveolar walls. 3. Proliferative phase: often follows acute. Hyperplasia of type II pneumocytes. 4. Chronic: ac
144
Q

Where are lesions of intersititial pneumonia founds?

A

throughout the whole lung. May be more pronounced in dorso-caudal region.

145
Q

**Important features of Interstitial Pneumonia (5)

A

Due to proliverative phase, alveolar walls thicken –> 1. Lung does not collapse on opening thoracic cavity. 2. Rib impressions on lungs. 3. Lack of visible exudate in lungs and meaty appearance. 4. Heavy, elastic, rubbery lungs. 5. Red to pale grey c

146
Q

Sequelae of interstitial pneumonia?

A

-Complete resolution (recovery). -10% death due to pulmonary edema (cattle) -Healing by fibrosis and epithelization of alveoli –> glandular appearance.

147
Q

Halmarks of Chronic intersitial pneumoina?

A
  1. Accumulation of mononuclear inflammatory cells in intersitium and alvioli and bronchi. 2. persistence of hyperplasitic type II pneumocytes. 3. Alveolar fibrosis 4.Formation of microscopic granulomas. 5. Hyperplasia of sm. Mm in airways or pulmonary
148
Q

What are two causes of Embolic pneumonia and the resulting lesions?

A
  1. Bronchopneumonia -> large abscesses, isolated, confined to anterioventral part of lung. Are seen extending from bronchial tree. 2. Metatstatic from septic emboli arrested in pumonary vessel. –> small abscesses, multiple and widely distributed in wh
149
Q

Etiology of infectious/ non-infectious granulomatous pneumonia?

A

infectious - bact, fungi, parasites, type III sensativity, FIP. Non-infectious - Inhaled forgein intert material

150
Q

Lesions of granulomatous pneumonia?

A

Soft yellow to gray caseous. Encapsulated = hard gritty and white-gray
