Slide Midterm Flashcards
• Hemorrhage beneath the dura • R. side • Results from: trauma → rupture of the bridge V CC: • rise in intracranial pressure • gradual & progressive bleeding→ over a period of wks Result: • Chronic Hematoma
Subdural hematoma
bact for meningitis
step. pneumonia
• Often a complication from pulmonary or middle ear infection
meningitis
-Pathogenesis:
• thick, pale inflam exudate over the frontal and parietal lobes
Clinical: • Fever, HA, Neck pn • vomiting • (+) Kernings sign • (+) CSF analysis
Meningitis
recent cerebral infarct has ____ necrosis
liquefaction
berry aneurysm arises from _____ art
causes: ______
- arises in R. ant. Communicating cerebral artery
* causes subarachnoid hemorrhage
base of the brain covered by extensive hemorrhage → located in sub-arachnoid space
cause:
• berry aneurysm
subarachoid hemorrhage
MCC of Traumatic intracerebral Hemorrhage
alcoholism (falling)
- (B) tumor arising from the arachnoid cells
* Psammoma Bodies
meningioma
MC in the intracranial space (less in the spinal dura)
• can have intramedullary hemorrhage
fx of humerus
3 phases of healing a broken bone
- inflam phase
- reparative phase
- remodeling phase
• erosion of the diploe (spongy bone portion)
bact:_______
chronic osteomyelitis
staph aureus
____: reactive woven bone that covers the sequestrium
seen in : ____
involcrum
Chronic Osteomyelitis
_____: draining sinus through the skin
seen in ______
cloaca
chronic osteomyelitis
- thickened and normal structures have been replaced by broad, pale, irregular bony trabeculae
- high serum alkaline phosphate levels
Paget’s Dx of the clavicle
(aka: osteoitis deformans)
• pathological fx, enlargement of the head and incr risk for osteogenic sarcomas
MC location of Ivory Osteoma of the skull
paranasal sinuses, orbit and dense bones
- pale tumor arising from the cortex (metaphysis) → spreads to the diaphysis→ elevates the periosteum = Codman’s triangle
- sunburst appearance: calcified osteoid extending from soft tis
Osteosarcoma of the femur
aka- osteogenic sarcoma
- Metastatic are the MC malignancy of the bone → they are lytic
- Lytic = radiolucencies on x-rays
Osteoblastic metastases (MC) secondary to prostate and breast cancer • increase serum alkaline phosphate
Metastatic breast carcinoma to the spine and pelvis
MC cause:
• atherosclerotic coronary artery dx → coagulative necrosis
acute myocardial infarction
MCC of death in MI
arrhythmias
Complications: • arrhythmias = MCC death • mural thrombus • rupture • ventricular aneurysm
Acute myocardial infarction
- thinned dilation of the wall
* Thick layer of adherent endocardial thrombus
Acute myocardial infarction with mural thrombosis
most common location of the hypertrophic muscle in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy
interventricular septum
- MC in: interventricular septum
- Pallor of the M
- Inherited autosomal dominant trait
hypertrophic cardiomyopathy
