Q

what is eccentric hypertrophy? does the volume inc or dec?

A

addition of sarcomeres in series leading to enlarged and dilate chamber with wall thinning

inc volume

25
Q

What is pictured on the right? (how is it different from normal on left)

A

Myocardial fibrosis
fibrous CT

26
Q

How is a bone injury healed?

A

fracture -> woven bone -> octeoclasts remove woven bone -> lamellar bone replaces woven

27
Q

How does the brain appear after significant damage?

A

minimal regeneration
cavitation

28
Q

what is exogenous pigment?

A

pigment taken on from external source

29
Q

what is endogenous pigment?

A

pigment produced by cell

30
Q

what are some endogenous pigments?

A

melanin, lipofuscin, ceroid

31
Q

what are some hematogenous pigments?

A

hemoglobin, parasite hematin, hemosiderin, bilirubin

32
Q

what type of pigment is shown here?

A

exogenous pigment - anthracosis, carbon

found w/in macrophages near airways

33
Q

what type of pigment is shown here? what distinguishes the two images?

A

endogenous pigment - melanin

left - no mass, melanosis
right - mass, metastatic melanoma

34
Q

Distinguish the 2 forms of melanin

A

left - malignant melanoma (very high up)
right - pigmentary incontinence (bland looking, lower down)

35
Q

how is malignant melanoma and pigmentary incontinence distinguished?

A

cellular atypia

36
Q

how is copper relevant to melanin?

A

copper is need to form melanin
contains enzyme tyrosinase (tyrosine -> melanin)

36
Q

what is pigmentary incontinence?

A

benign reaction to inflammation

37
Q

what pathology is seen here? Same goat right picture 2 years later and given a supplement

A

copper deficiency

38
Q

what is lipofuscin? Is it harmful? what is the color?

A

end product of autophagocytosis that accumulates within cells over time
not harmful
yellow-brown

38
Q

what is ceroid? Is it harmful? what is the color?

A

oxidized proteins and lipids, can accumulate from pathologic conditions
yes
yellow-green

39
Q

what is jaundice due to?

A

presence of bilirubin

40
Q

what is hematin due to?

A

artifact of formic acid and heme

41
Q

Describe the tissue color - what is it from?

A

Icterus - presence of bilirubin

42
Q

Describe the tissue color - what is it from?

A

hematin pigment - fluke

43
Q

How are gout crystals created?

A

uricase absent
blood uric acid cannot be converted to allantoin

44
Q

Describe the pathogenesis of gout crystals

A

uricase absent > blood uric acid is not converted to allantoin > blood uric acid is deposited

45
Q

what is this? polarized light is being shined on the specimen

A

gout crystals

46
Q

what is the pathogen? what tissue is this? where is the inflammatory reaction?

A

Q

what tissue is this? which is pathogenic? what is the pathogen?

A

kidney
right
