Q

What is Enteritis haemorrhagica?

A

Hemorrhagic enteritis is a more severe form of acute catarrhal enteritis (outpouring of protein rich fluid and low absorption produces rapid dehydration and often death).

distribution is patchy because if it was diffuse the animal would not survive.

Q

What is red hepatization?

A

Stage 2 of pneumonia progression, occurs after 48 to 72 hours and lasts for about 2 to 4 days.

During this stage, red blood cells and immune cells travel to the alveoli to prepare to fight the infection.

Since there are more red blood cells, the lungs may appear red. The lungs also become dry, airless, and firm, often resembling the liver.

Stage 1: Congestion
Stage 2: Red hepatization

Q

What is gray hepatization?

A

Stage 3 of pneumonia progression, occurs on day 4 to 6 and continues for 4 to 8 days. The lung looks grey or yellow in color but still has the consistency of liver.

Alveolar lumens are filled with leukocytic (suppurative) exudate (neutrophils and macrophages, in order to remove the fibrin).

Fibrin, hemosiderin and red blood cells break down and lead to a more fluid-like exudate. Macrophages, a type of large white blood cell, start to appear.

29
most common causes of tracheitis are
viral infections, such as those causing infectious bovine rhinotracheitis (IBR), equine viral rhinopneumonitis (EVR), canine distemper and feline rhinotracheitis.
30
tracheitis in all animal species is classified as 1 or a combination of the following 4:
fibrinous, catarrhal, purulent, or granulomatous.
31
Catarrhal inflammation, or called
or mucoid inflammation
32
Catarrhal inflammation, or mucoid inflammation, is the term used to describe a pattern of
acute inflammation in which the tissue response consists of the secretion or accumulation of a thick gelatinous fluid containing abundant mucus and mucins from a mucous membrane.
33
Acute catarrhal enteritis is a common finding in
many infectious diseases, as well as chemical intoxications.
34
Chronic catarrhal enteritis accompanies such disease as (2)
intestinal helminthiasis and chronic visceral congestion.
35
corrugated surace of intestinal mucosa could be a sign of
chronic inflammation (e.g. chronic catarrhal enteritis) the chronic nature causes thickening of the mucosa over time (hyperplastic connective tissue)
36
Bronchopneumonia refers to a particular type of pneumonia in which
injury and the inflammatory process take place primarily in the bronchial, bronchiolar and alveolar lumens.
37
What part of the lungs are typically affected in bronchopneumonia?
Distribution of lesions is generally cranioventral. Filling of alveoli, bronchioles, and small bronchi with inflammatory exudate progressively obliterates airspaces.
38
Bronchopneumonia is generally caused by
bacteria and mycoplasmas, by bronchoaspiration of feed or gastric contents, or by improper tubing.
39
Atrophic cirrhosis of the liver grossly
the liver is small, contracted but is very hard and dense (weighty). the surface irregular, the color varying greatly; grey/yellow/brown depending on bile and fatty degeneration.
40
identify
Atrophic cirrhosis of the liver proliferation of connective tissue with the formation of new fibers. marked fatty degeneration.
41
Cirrhosis is not a primary disorder, but rather represents
end stage liver disease from any of several causes.
42
Cirrhosis is characterized by
diffuse hepatic fibrosis.
43
Main features of Hypertrophic cirrhosis of the liver microscopically
diffuse hepatic fibrosis. connective tissue proliferates in diffuse arrangement, is seen to extend into the lobules between the columns of cells as well as in the interlobular areas. excessive formation of new biliary ducts. hepatocyte necrosis
44
define periangiocholitis
Inflammation of the tissues around the bile ducts.
45
Cirrhosis is generally considered progressive, non-reversible, and ultimately fatal. The architecture of the liver is altered by ...?
loss of hepatic parenchyma, condensation of reticulin framework, and formation of tracts of fibrous connective tissue.
46
Acute encephalitis is typically caused by
a viral infection.
47
Acute encephallitis microscopic lesions are usually
nonsuppurative (lymphomonocytic)

51
Endocarditis is commonly found in what species, and results from what?
Endocarditis is commonly found in pigs and results from a bacterial septicemia.
52
describe verrucous endocarditis
affected valves have large, yellow-to-gray masses of fibrin (“vegetations”), can occlude the valvular orifice. in chronic cases, fibrin deposits produce nodular masses termed “verrucae” (wart-like lesions). lesions are large by time of death and pressent on valves and extend to adjacent wall (mural). microscopically lesions consist of accumulated layers of fibrin and bacterial colonies underlain by a zone of infiltrated lymphocytes and granular tissue.
53
In both cytologic and histologic preparations, lymphoma is characterized by
a monomorphic population of morphologically atypical lymphocytes. Histologically, lymphoma is also characterized by disruption of normal tissue architecture.
54
how do you differentiate low-grade vs high-grade lymphomas histologically?
In general, lymphomas of small, well-differentiated cells with low mitotic rates are low-grade (indolent, slowly progressive) diseases, whereas lymphomas of large, poorly differentiated cells with high mitotic rates are high-grade (aggressive, rapidly progressive) diseases.
55
Leukemias are conventionally classified according to two criteria:
as lymphocytic (lymphoid) or myelogenous (myeloid), based on the cell of origin, and as acute or chronic, based on the degree of differentiation of the neoplastic cells and their biologic behavior. (and subcategories inside these groups)
56
identify
Lymphosarcoma in the lung; the dense, darker lymphocytic area of cells is tumor.
57
What is pictured?
mitoses increased mitotic activity is a feature of malignancy "Cancerous tissue generally has more mitotic activity than normal tissues."
58
the most common form of leukemia
Lymphoid leukemia (leucosis)
59
Lymphoid leukemia (leucosis) Gross pathological changes are
significant enlargement of the liver with miliary, diffuse or nodular tumor foci nodular tumors in the bursa of Fabricius of birds tumorous enlargement of the spleen and other organs too.
60
Lymphoid leukemia (leucosis) microscopic pathological changes are
the lesions consist of coalescing foci of extravascular, uniformly immature lymphoid cells (lymphoblasts). The tumor cells are B-cells, expressing immunoglobulin M (IgM) and other B-cell markers, which originate in the bursa and metastasize to other organs.
61
Chronic myeloid leukemias (CMLs) are rare in animals, with most reported cases occurring in dogs and cats. Types of CML reported in animals include (2)
chronic granulocytic leukemias of neutrophils, eosinophils, and basophils; chronic myelomonocytic leukemias.
62
Chronic myeloid leukemias (CMLs) microscopically:
the liver shows intravascular, sinusoidal accumulations of immature myeloid cells (myeloblasts and myelocytes = neutrophil precursor), and extravascular accumulations and perivascular cuffing, by these cells.
63
what are: myelocytes myeloblasts
neutrophil granulocytic differentiation: The most immature stage, the myeloblast, is characterized by a large nucleus with several nucleoli and a nongranular cytoplasm. Cell division ceases during the myelocyte stage and specific granules appear in the cytoplasm.
64
identify
Myeloid leukemia in liver. Intravascular, sinusoidal accumulations of immature myeloid cells (myeloblasts and myelocytes) and extravascular accumulations and perivascular cuffing.
65
Emphysema is strictly defined as
an abnormal permanent enlargement of airspaces distal to the terminal bronchiole, accompanied by destruction of alveolar walls (alveolar emphysema).
66
Secondary pulmonary emphysema occurs frequently in animals with
bronchopneumonia, in which exudate plugging bronchi and bronchioles causes an airflow imbalance where the volume of air entering exceeds the volume leaving the lung.
67
Depending on the localization in the lung, emphysema can be classified as
alveolar or interstitial. Note: Emphysemas possible after death (bacterial gas producing) differentiate from actual emphysemas
68
Interstitial emphysema occurs mainly in
cattle, presumably because of their wide interlobular septa, and lack of collateral ventilation in these species does not permit air to move freely into adjacent pulmonary lobules. As a result, accumulated air penetrates the alveolar and bronchiolar walls and forces its way into the interlobular connective tissue, causing notable distention of the interlobular septa.
69
bullous emphysema is
Sometimes these bubbles of trapped air in alveolar or interstitial emphysema become confluent, forming large (several centimeters in diameter) pockets of air that are referred to as bullae (singular: bulla); the lesion is then called bullous emphysema.
70
microscopic difference between myeloid and lymphoid leukemias in e.g. the liver
in lymphoid leukemias, the accumulations of lymphoblasts are better demarcated. In Myeloid leukemias, the accumulations of myeloid/myeloblasts cells are pretty diffuse, all through the liver parenchyma.
71
identify
bullous emphysema
72
define Rachitis
old-fashioned medical term for rickets. Rickets is a disease of bone and epiphyseal (growth) cartilage in immature animals, whereas osteomalacia is a disease where the lesions are confined to bone and only occurs in adults.
73

74
define kyphosis
Kyphosis is an exaggerated, forward rounding of the upper back.
75
identify

"the surfaces of trabecular bone in rickets and osteomalacia contain excessive amounts of osteoid (unmineralized matrix)."
76
identify
alveolar emphysema: broken walled alveoli are seen. the funny looking buttholes are bronchioles
77
Tuberculosis Respiratory infection usually starts when
inhaled bacilli reach the alveoli and are phagocytosed by pulmonary alveolar macrophages.
78
Bovine tuberculosis (the prototype for granulomatous pneumonia), is characterized by
the presence of a few or many caseating granulomas. The early gross changes are small foci (tubercles) most frequently seen in the dorsocaudal, subpleural areas. With progression, the lesions enlarge and become confluent with the formation of large areas of caseous necrosis. Calcification of the granulomas is a typical finding in bovine tuberculosis.
79
identify
grossly, Miliary tuberculous pneumonia "these lesions resemble a sprinkling of millet seeds to early observers, they gave the name miliary tuberculosis to infection of this rapidly fatal type."
80
identify
Miliary tuberculous pneumonia. -Starts with small foci called tubercles (microscopic in this case) -Tubercles have mononuclear cells of various types: young cells: noncaseous, epithelioid and Langhans giant cells are in center, surrounded by lymphocytes, plasma cells, and macrophages older: caseous necrosis develops at the center, fibrosis at periphery
81
Tip from Tonu Järveots for studying a rickets slide:
be sure to study the entire slide (move around) due to the different layers observed in epiphyseal growth plates. If you don't move around and view all areas, you'll likely misdiagnose and something else altogether.

86
Do not mistake miliary tuberculous pneumonia for
alveolar emphysema. They can look similar as miliary tuberculous pneumonia also ivolves broken and enlarged alveoli. Look around the slide for tubercles characteristic to tuebrculous pneumonia.
87
What is pictured (other than the langhans cells)?
