What is core pulmonale
RV hyertrophy 2* to pulmonary hypertension/lung dz
2 things needed to call cirrhosis
Fibrosis, nodular regeneration
Types of pericarditis
Effusive (Fluid production), constrictive (fibrous adhesion- large anmial_

SCC
Blood filtering unit
Lobule
Most common cat oral tumor
SCC
Describe blood flow
From portal region through hepatocytes to central veins
Multicentric SCC In-situ (Bowman’s dz): predilection
Older cats
Cutaneous MCT in cats should lead you to check the spleen for lesions
F- no association
Bio behavior and cell of origin of fibromatous epulides
arise from periodontal ligament, DOES NOT invade underlying bone
Basal cell tumor- cat: location
head and neck
What is pitting
Chronic kidney change- infarct, fibrosis secondary to inflammation
Sites of congeital heart dz
PDA, atral septal, pulmonic stenosis, VSD
Define feline cutaneous MCT grading system
There is none!
Eisenmenger complex-
VSD with reversal and R to L shunting
Bile secreting unit
Acinus
Three types of gingivitis sequelae lesions in cats
Eosinophilic granuloma, paradental stomatitis, lymphoplasmacytic stomatitis (LPS)
Define pyelonephritis
inflam of both pelvis and parenchyma
Renal LSA- lesions
Multifocal, not end stage bc between nodules is normal
Purkinje fibers come from
R and L BB ramifying over endocardial surface of both ventricles
How does immune complex GN damage kidney
Activation of complement which brings in PMNs which release hydrolytic enzyemes
Dog GI- Behavior- extra medullary plasmacytoma-
benign, prone to recurrence d/t location in mouth
2 types of tubular necrosis, causes
Ischemic and nephrotoxic (nephrosis); obstruction, decreased urine production, back leakage
If capsule is hard to peel off of kidney,
Fibrin secondary to nephritis or necrosis inflammation
What determines the bio behavior in melanocytic tumors
Mitotic activity and location (not pigmentation or morphology)
Acanthomatous epulides- origin, bio behavior
Ameloblastic epithelium; NO mets but invade and destroy bone, MAY transform to SCC
Describe lesions of FIP
Pyogranulomatous lesions which follow the blood vessels in kidney (also liver, spleen, chest cavity)
