1 Respiratory system SYLLABUS: RBP(Robbins Basic Pathology) Chapters: The Lung and the Upper Respiratory Tract

2 Respiratory system 130Lung emphysema 225Bronchiectases and bronchitis 101Bronchopneumonia 163NSCLC- cytology 332Squamous cell lung carcinoma 121Aspergilloma

3 Lung emphysema Destruction of alveolar septa, resulting in permanent enlargement of spaces: -abnormally large alveoli separated by thin septa with only focal centriacinar fibrosis - loss of attachments of the alveoli to the outer wall of small airways

4 Lung emphysema

6 Bronchiectases and bronchitis Bronchiectases: - irreversible dilation of part of the bronchial tree - involved bronchi are dilated, inflamed, and easily collapsible, resulting in airflow obstruction and impaired clearance of secretions Bronchitis: - hyperemia, swelling, and edema of the mucous membranes, frequently accompanied by excessive mucinous to mucopurulent secretions layering the epithelial surfaces.

7 Bronchiectases and bronchitis

8

9 Bronchopneumonia Consolidated areas of acute suppurative inflammation: -a suppurative, neutrophil-rich exudate that fills the bronchi, bronchioles, and adjacent alveolar spaces

10 Bronchopneumonia

11

12 NSCLC- cytology Sputum cytology with the features of malignant epithelial cells What are the cytological features indicating: - malignancy - epithelial origin - keratinization? What are the staining methods/ antibodies useful for solving that diagnostic problem?

13 NSCLC- cytology

14

15 Squamous cell lung carcinoma -presence of keratinization and/or intercellular bridges - keratinization may take the form of squamous pearls or individual cells with markedly eosinophilic dense cytoplasm - mitotic activity is higher in poorly differentiated tumors - squamous metaplasia, epithelial dysplasia, and foci of carcinoma in situ may be seen in bronchial epithelium adjacent to the tumor mass

16 Squamous cell lung carcinoma

17

18 Aspergilloma (Colonizing aspergillosis) - growth of the fungus in pulmonary cavities with minimal or no invasion of the tissues -the cavities usually result from preexisting tuberculosis, bronchiectasis, old infarcts, or abscesses - proliferating masses of fungal hyphae called fungus balls form brownish masses lying free within the cavities - the surrounding inflammatory reaction sparse, or chronic inflammation and fibrosis
