Q

IMPORTANCE OF HISTOLOGY IN GENERAL PATHOLOGY

➔ ____________________________, which
depend on the type of tissue, and the disease itself.
➔ ______________ that are characteristic of a
disease ______________________ cells and tissues, and the range of normality.
➔ Knowing the type of tissue and their composition is important
in the ______________________________
● These changes within cells and tissues can be visualized
using histopathologic techniques.

A

Disease processes affect tissues in distinctive ways

Understanding the changes

requires a detailed knowledge of the normal histology

selection of the appropriate histopathologic technique
and stain to be used.

24
Q

PATHOLOGY comes from the greek word ______ and ________

A

(Greek words) “Pathos” and “logos” - study of suffering
(or disease)

25
Q

➔ Underlying cause of death
➔ Structural and functional changes in cells, tissue and organs
➔ Molecular bases of diseases.

A

Histopathology

26
Q

Father of Modern Pathology

RUDOLF VIRCHOW

27
Q

Father of Medicine

HIPPOCRATES

28
Q

4 DIVISIONS OF PATHOLOGY

A

GROSS PATHOLOGY
MICROSCOPIC PATHOLOGY
CLINICAL PATHOLOGY
ANATOMICAL PATHOLOGY

29
Q

Changes in the tissue that can be seen by the naked eye
● Gross examiner

A

GROSS PATHOLOGY

30
Q

Changes in the tissue that can be seen through a
microscope

A

MICROSCOPIC PATHOLOGY

31
Q

Compositions of body fluids, tissues, secretion, exudates
and transudates.

A

CLINICAL PATHOLOGY

32
Q

Removal of an organ/tissue in the body for examination/
diagnosis

A

ANATOMICAL PATHOLOGY

33
Q

Any change from a state of health as a result of certain forms
of stimuli and stress.

A

DISEASE

34
Q

Four Aspects of Disease Process

A

Etiology
Pathogenesis
Morphological
& Molecular
Changes
Clinical
Manifestations

35
Q

Cause or origin of the disease; it can be genetic
or acquired factors

A

Etiology

36
Q

Mechanisms of the development of the disease
Sequence of event from initial stimulus to
ultimate expression of the disease
(From start to finish)

A

Pathogenesis

37
Q

Structural, biochemical and molecular alterations as a result of the disease
If something happened to us because of the disease that we have, it refers to morphological
& molecular changes

A

Morphological
& Molecular
Changes

38
Q

Functional consequence of the changes
(any changes that affect our functions may lead
to clinical manifestations)
Part of the aspects of a disease process

A

Clinical
Manifestations

39
Q

Effects that can be observed by others
(What others can see in you.)
E.g: Red spot in skin.

A

Signs

40
Q

Effects apparent only to the patient

E.g: fever

A

Symptoms

41
Q

Normal cells handle physiologic demands through ____________

A

HOMEOSTASIS

42
Q

act of maintaining a steady state
● An act of maintaining equilibrium, every single day
our body is trying to maintain equilibrium or
homeostasis
● Example: During cold weather, our body maintains
our body temperature.

A

HOMEOSTASIS

43
Q

changes made by cell in response to
environmental changes (stress or stimuli)

A

ADAPTATION

44
Q

altered cell structure or function due to:

a. Inability to adapt
b. Exposure to injurious stimuli
c. Deprivation from essential nutrients

A

CELL INJURY

45
Q

Remember that there are 2 types of cell
injury

A

Reversible injury
Irreversible injury

46
Q

will eventually lead to CELL DEATH

A

IRREVERSIBLE INJURY

47
Q

can lead back to
normal cell / homeostasis can be
achieved

A

Reversible injury

48
Q

death of cells occurs as a normal & controlled part
of a normal organism’s growth and development
➔ Part of the natural life cycle of a normal human
being
◆ E.g. skin cells
➔ Program cell death
➔ “Active cell death”
➔ Physiologic

A

Apoptosis

49
Q

➔ death of all of the cells in an organ & tissue due to
disease, injury or failure of the blood supply
➔ Premature/Accidental cell death
➔ “Passive cell death”
➔ Pathologic

A

Necrosis

50
Q

Two types of cell death

A

Apoptosis
Necrosis

51
Q

STAGES OF THE CELLULAR RESPONSE TO STRESS AND
INJURIOUS STIMULI: OTHER RESPONSES

A
  1. Autophagy
  2. Intracellular accumulation of substances
  3. Pathologic calcification
  4. Cellular aging
