24
Q

parenchymal lung lesion with nodal involvement in TB

25
Granulomatous inflammation with caseating necrosis, multinucleated giant cells is present in
early TB
26
granulation tissue, fibrosis, stellate scar is present in
late TB
27
Wear ______ during frozen sections of lung/lymph nodes of lung
N95
28
TB can also be present in this other than the lung
lymph node
29
benign mesenchymal neoplasms containing tissues made up of cartilage, smooth muscle, and connective tissue (native tissue but disorganized - adenochondroma)
hamartoma
30
radiographically, hamartomas appear as
coin lesions
31
this type of lung cancer tends to be peripheral
adenocarcinoma
32
SCC of the lung arises in this part
bronchial epithelium
33
variant of adenocarcinoma with acini in fibrotic stroma
acinar variant
34
variant of adenocarcinoma with papillary growth formation with true fibrovascular cores
papillary variant
35
variant of adenocarcinoma with goblet cells with abundant intracellular mucin
mucinous variant
36
variant of adenocarcinoma with atypical type II pneumocytes growing along the surface of the alveolar septa
lepidic variant
37
variant of adenocarcinoma with small, delicate papillary tufts lacking true fibrovascular cores
micropapillary variant
38
variant of adenocarcinoma with solid sheets that lack other recognizable patterns
solid variant
39
gross appearance of tan-white soft and friable with possible necrotic center, adjacent to bronchi
small cell lung cancer
40
subtype with no specific features of small cell, adeno, or SCC. 50% near bronchial lumen. Gray-white, sub-pleural fleshy cut surface.
large cell lung cancer
41
May cause lung carcinoma, mesothelioma
asbestosis
42
Patchy consolidation in this disease
bronchopneumonia
43
entire lobe, lobar pneumonia
congestion
44
increased blood volumes within tissue
hyperemia, congestion
45
arteriolar dilation (inflammation, muscle)
hyperemia
46
passive, reduced venous outflow (dusky reddish)
congestion
47
lung specimens u may receive (6)
-FNA -Wedge -lobectomy -segmentectomy -pneumonectomy -mediastinal lymph nodes
48
do not use black ink for these two types of cases
lung and melanoma
49
weigh the lung before doing this
infiltration/inflation
50
if the tumor is squamous cell, open the lung along this
bronchial airway
51
if the tumor is adenocarcinoma or other section like this
serially section
52
if the tumor is close to the bronchovascular margin, shave it this way
perpendicularly
53
lung staging is dependent on these three things
-tumor size -pleural involvement -invasion into adjacent structures
54
lung T2 lesions assess (4)
-tumor size -invasion into visceral pleura -association with atelectasis -involvement of main bronchus
55
lung T3/T4 lesions assess (3)
-Tumor size - Invasion into adjacent structures (Section carefully (bone saw) to demonstrate lesions to adjacent structures) - Fix, then decal
