Flashcards

Non-Hodgkin lymphoma

A type of cancer that usually involves a single group of lymph nodes and has non-contagious spread.

Pyogenic osteomyelitis

Bone infection caused by bacteria, often through blood, frequently showing granulomas and new bone formation.

Hormone producing tumor of ovary

Tumors in the ovary that produce hormones, examples include Dysgerminoma and Granulosa cell tumor.

Acute myocardial infarction markers

Changes in blood markers such as raised troponin-I and neutrophilic leukocytosis during a heart attack.

Study Notes

Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma (Patho:151)

  • Usually involves a single group of lymph nodes.
  • Typically spreads non-contagiously.
  • Does not always involve the spleen.
  • Characterized by effacement of lymph node architecture.
  • Can occur in the gastrointestinal tract (GIT).

Hemato-Lymphoid Disorders in Children (Patho:152)

  • Hairy cell leukemia
  • Acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL)
  • Burkitt lymphoma
  • These conditions often affect children.

Pyogenic Osteomyelitis (Patho:157)

  • Caused by blood-borne infection.
  • Primarily caused by bacteria.
  • Streptococcus is a frequent causative agent.
  • Often shows granuloma formation.
  • Characterized by new bone formation.

Hormone-Producing Ovarian Tumors (Patho:158)

  • Granulosa cell tumor
  • Leydig cell tumor
  • These are types of ovarian tumors producing hormones.

Acute Myocardial Infarction (Patho:159)

  • Elevated troponin-I levels
  • Creatine kinase-MB (CK-MB) elevation observed
  • Neutrophilic leukocytosis occurs
  • Blood cholesterol levels are not definitive factors in this injury.
  • Elevated C-reactive protein (CRP) is a possible marker.

Benign Lesions (Patho:160)

  • Choristoma
  • Hamartoma
  • These classifications represent benign tissue growths.
