Inflammation p.2 109 Miliary tuberculosis 111 Tuberculous cavity of the lung 120 Actinomycosis 151 Sarcoidosis 241Enterobiasis (appendix) 123Trichinosis (muscle) 122 Cysticercosis (CNS)
3
„millet seed”- size (up to 2mm) TB granulomas: - giant Langhans cells - epithelioid cells - lymphocytes - caseous necrosis Miliary tuberculosis (lung)
4
Miliary tuberculosis
7
Tuberculous cavity of the lung the wall of a cavity: internal layer: - caseous necrosis middle layer: - components of TB granulomas outer layer: -granulation tissue -fibrous tissue
8
Tuberculous cavity of the lung please note: the micro-slide contains a fragment of a wall of a big TB cavity, don’t search for small cavities inside that specimen
9
Tuberculous cavity of the lung
11
Actinomycosis Actinomyces colonies surrounded by the purulent inflammtory infiltration
12
Actinomycosis
14
Sarcoidosis noncaseating granulomas composed of: - epithelioid cells, - Langhans cells - lymphocytes
15
Sarcoidosis
17
Enterobiasis (appendix) Tissue: - normal mucosa - or eosinophilic reaction - or acute appendicitis Worms: - distinctive lateral alae („thorns” in cross section) - sections may show eggs within worms (eggs may also be seen alone)
18
Enterobiasis (appendix)
20
Trichinosis (muscle) Worms: - encysted coiled roundworms Tissue: -muscle cells with inflammation including eosinophils and macrophages - fiber necrosis - larval death triggers eosinophilic granulomatous inflammation leading to calcification or - a chronic, inactive stage where encysted organisms are found in the absence of any cellular response.
21
Trichinosis (muscle)
23
Cysticercosis (CNS) Worm: - fluid-filled cyst with eosinophilic laminated wall lined by monolayer of rare nuclei - older lesions fibrotic and calcified Tissue: - little inflammation unless ruptured
24
Cysticercosis (CNS)
