Q

Sarcoidosis is one of the few pulmonary diseases with a higher prevalence in non-smokers

A

True

17
Q

On a chest x-ray of a person with sarcoidosis what can you expect to see

A

bilateral hilar lymphadenopathy

18
Q

More than 95% of Pulmonary emboli arise from thrombi in what area of the body?

A

Deep Vein Thrombosis from the lower legs

- popliteal or femoral veins

19
Q

The consequences of pulmonary embolism depend on size. What are the two important consequences of pulmonary emboli

A

1) Increase in Pulmonary artery Pressure (HTN)

2) Tissue Ischemia/Infarction

20
Q

Occlusion of a major vessel in the lungs results in what progression of events?

A

Sudden increased in artery pressure –> Diminished cardiac outpud –> right sided heart failure/cor pulmonale –>hypoxia/death

21
Q

The majority of Pulmonary Emboli are clinically silent (60-80%) and the minority cause acute cor pulmonale or death (5%)

A

True

22
Q

What percent of patients who have experiences a pulmonary embolism will have another

A

30%

23
Q

What type of embolism is large and may lodge at a bifurcation causing occlusion of more than 60% of pulmonary artery supply

A

Saddle Embolus

24
Q

where does a saddle embolism usually occur

A

at the bifurcation of the pulmonary artery

25
Q

Pulmonary hypertension involves what vascular alterations of the entire arterial tree

A

Atherosclerosis and smooth muscle hypertrophy

26
Q

Pulmonary Hypertension can be primary or secondary, which one is more common?

A

Secondary

27
Q

What is Pulmonary Hypertension most often secondary to?

A

A decrease in cross sectional area of Pulmonary vessels
or
An increase in pulmonary vascular flow

28
Q

Pulmonary blood pressures are usually higher than systemic pressures

A

False,

Pulmonary pressures are usually only about 1/8th the pressure of systemic circulation

29
Q

What is the cause of primary pulmonary hypertension. Who is at greater risk males or females?

A

An endothelial dysfunction causing the proliferation of smooth muscle cells
MC in Females

30
Q

Diffuse alveolar hemorrhage syndromes constitute a group of Immune Mediated diseases that manifest as a triad involving what three symptoms

A

1) Hemoptysis (coughing up blood)
2) Anemia (deficiency of RBC)
3) Diffuse Pulmonary Edema

31
Q

What is the classic Diffuse Alveolar Hemorrhage Syndrome?

A

Goodpasture Syndrome

32
Q

Which area of the lung is IgA used most for protection

A

Upper Airways (Decrease Microbial Attachment)

33
Q

Which area of the lung is IgG used most for protection

A

In the alveoli

34
Q

The lung Parenchyma is typically sterile

A

True
