Q

Lymph node: cortexo

A

Outer - nodules (B) with reaction center (medium)
surrounded by mantle (small)
Inner - deep cortex (T)
Non nodular lymph
lies between and deep to nodules
extends into central medulla as narrow cords (WITH B CELLS)

Q

Lymph node: Capsule

A

dense CT
subcapsular sinus
Trabeculae which extend into the organ from capsule
(surrounded by trabecular sinuses)

17
Q

Spleen

A
Capsule
White pulp
Red pulp
Nodules
Trabeculae
Septae
18
Q

Spleen: Capsule

A

CT

Septae penetrate from capsule

19
Q

Spleen: White Pulp

A

looks like a bunch of nodules with in red pulp sea
Nodules
PALS - sheath of helper T encircling central artery

20
Q

Spleen: Red pulp

A

Not red/darker depending on the stain used
anything that is not nodules
2 parts - parenchyma, splenic sinuses

21
Q

Spleen: Nodules

A

Marginal layer - periphery (lighter than mantle)
Mantle - small dark
Germinal center
Central artery -encircled by PALS (T helper), enters red pulp from white pulp as penicillar artery.

22
Q

Spleen: Trabeculae

A

Trabecular artery - thick wall

Trabecular vein - thin wall

23
Q

Thymus

A

Capsule
Cortex
Medulla - Hassel’s Corpuscles
Septae

24
Q

Thymus: Hassel’s Corpuscle

A

in Medulla
round, eosinophilic
Epithelial reticular cells that are cornified

25
Tonsils
Nodules below an endothelium Palantine tonsil Lingual Tonsil
26
Palantine tonsil
border between pharynx and oral cavity covered by stratified squamous epithelium Crypts - lined by epithelium, overlie the aggregates of lymph nodules
27
Lingual Tonsil
under stratified squamous epithelium in posterior tongue Crypt Mucous glands and muscles lie below the tonsil
