Chapter 15 Robbins Flashcards
endemic area for coccidiomycosis
sw and W us and mexico
autoimmune pap
autoimmune
-abs for GM-CSF, 90% of cases, lacks familial predisp, loss of GM-CSF blocks terminal diff of alveolar macrophages impairing ability to catabolize surfactanct
legionella pneumonia common in what individuals
with predisposing conditions like cardiac, renal, imune, hematologic
focal areas of cell consoidation of lung substance chiefly in periphery of lung fields
- heavey aggregates of lymphocytes and eosinophil lesions in septal walls and alveolar spaces
- pts have cough, fever, night sweats, dyspnea, and weight loss
- response to corticosteroid therapy
idiopathic chronic eosinophilic pneumonia
adenocarcinma and genetics
GOF mutation in GF receptor signaling path
genes encoding RTKs like
-EGFR,ALK,ROS,MET,RET MR EAR
prognosis of goodpasture impvoed by
intensive plasmapheresis, also give simultaneous immunosuppressive therapy
____ pneumonia is localized lesion in ICP with or without regional LN involvement
chronic
associated with URI and LRI
most common infection in young children, elderly, and ICP
can cause bronchioloitis and pneumonia
first infection in childhood, reinfections common throughout life
clinically indistinguihsable from those caused by RSV and often mistaken for influenza
human petapneumovirus
symptom in viral laryngotracheobronchitis and bronchiolitis
vocal cord swelling and abundant mucus production
complications of lung abscess
extension into pleural cavity, hemorrhage, and development of brain abscesses or meningitis from septic emboli
what infection: associated with lung abscess and emyema
importnant cause of hospital acquired pneumonia
important cause of secondary bacterial pneumonia in children and healthy adults following viral resp illness
staphy aureus
evidence that hypersensitivity pneumonitis is immuno mediated
specimens have increased MIP1a and IL-8
- increased CD4 and CD8
- abs against causitve agent in serum
- noncaseating granulomas = t cell mediated IV hypersens
infrequent complications in lung transplant
accelerated pulmonary arteriosclerosis in the graft and EBV associated B cell lymphoma
mode of transmission legionella
inhalation of aerosolized organisms or aspiration of contaminated drinking water
PHTN clinical course
most common in women ages 20-40 and occasionally in young children
- dyspnea, fatigue, some pts have chest pain
- overtime respiratory distress, cyanosis, rvh, death from cor pulmunale within 2-5 yrs of 80% of pts
radiolograph of PAP
bilateral patchy asymmetric pulmonary opacifications
morphology of lung rejection
lymphocytes, plasma cells, few neutrophils and esoinophils around small vessels, in submucosa of airways or both
adenocarcinoma that spreads forming satellite tumors
-solitary or multiple nodule
mucinous adenocarcinomas
1 year survival rate of lung transplant
79%
during cardiopulmonary resusciation from PE pt frequently has ____
electromechanical dissociation
-ECG has rhythm but no pulses palpated bc no blood entering pulmonary arterial circulation
location of adenocarcinoma
periphery
most common bacterial cause of actute exacerbation of COPD
haem infl
surfactant protein B clinical presentation
infant is full term and rapidly develpos progressive respiratory distress shortly after birth
death btwn 3-6 months
variable amt of intra alveolar pink granular material, type II pneumocyte hyperplasia, interstitial fibrosis and alveolar simplification
abnormalities in lamerllar bodies in type II pneumocytes
surfactant dysfunction disorder morphology
