Study Notes
Pneumonia Classifications and Characteristics
- Embolic pneumonia is centered on blood vessels and results from hematogenously delivered injurious agents to the lung
- Embolic pneumonia is characterized by multifocal lesions randomly distributed in the lobes of the lungs
- Septic emboli sources include hepatic abscesses, omphalophlebitis, chronic bacterial or fungal infections, and contaminated catheters
- Embolic pneumonia can be caused by bacteria such as Streptococcus and Staphylococcus, as well as fungi including Aspergillus
- It requires circulating bacteria or fungi to attach to pulmonary endothelium and evade phagocytosis
- A 6-week-old puppy had embolic pneumonia caused by Pseudomonas aeruginosa
- Embolic pneumonia in a cow was caused by septic emboli originating from vegetative endocarditis involving the tricuspid valve
- Granulomatous pneumonia refers to pneumonia with a granulomatous inflammatory response
- Granulomatous pneumonia is characterized by activation of alveolar and interstitial macrophages, lymphocytes, and giant cells
- Common causes of granulomatous pneumonia include systemic fungal diseases and bacteria, particularly mycobacteria
- Systemic fungal diseases such as cryptococcosis, coccidioidomycosis, and histoplasmosis are common causes of granulomatous pneumonia
- A foal had granulomatous pneumonia with cranioventral consolidation of the lungs and subpleural granulomas, caused by Rhodococcus equi
