Section 1

(20 cards)

claudication distance

Front

number of blocks walked or stairs climbed to produce pain

Back

Fallot's tetralogy

Front

1) Pulmonary stenosis 2) High ventricular septal defect 3) Overriding of septum by aorta 4) RV hypertrophy

Back

Ulcers

Front

Open sores in the lining of the digestive system

Back

Koilocytosis

Front

clear halo containing a wrinkled, pyknotic nucleus --> effect of HPV on squamous cells

Back

fibromuscular hyperplasia

Front

muscles/connective tissue increases in number of cells

Back

Sarcoidosis

Front

chronic inflammatory disease in which small nodules (granulomas) develop in lungs, lymph nodes, and other organs

Back

Prerenal azotemia

Front

↑ BUN and creatinine; ↓ renal blood flow (e.g. heart failure, hypovolemia)

Back

Vascular dissemination and homing

Front

1. Tumour cells erode through the wall of the lymphatics or blood vessels 2. Spread as single cell or multi cell emobil with platelets/WBC 3. Homing site is related to presence/absence of molecules, Chemokines, and staying away from unfavourable environments like uscle 4. In metastatic site they grow and stimulate angiogenesis

Back

Amyloidosis

Front

abnromal protiens that are folded into beta sheets cause damage and trigger apoptosis

Back

Ulcer

Front

open sore or lesion in the skin or mucous membrane

Back

Polyarteritis Nodosa (PAN)

Front

systemic vasculitis -> transmural necrotizing inflammation of small or medium sized muscular arteries -> typically involves renal and visceral arteries (spares pulmonary circulation) -> arterioles, capillaries and venules NOT affected

Back

Nodular hyperplasia of Prostate

Front

AKA Benign Prostatic Hypertrophy (BPH), highest incidence in males 70-80+, results in urethral blockage and infrequency...prostate easily palpable, enlarged

Back

stupor

Front

a state of near-unconsciousness or insensibility

Back

Polycythemia

Front

increased number of erythrocytes and hemoglobin in the blood

Back

Vascular Dissemination

Front

Survival in Blood Vessel (Cells are vulnerable) is enhanced by platelet-tumor aggregates. Extravasation from Blood Vessel (via adhesion to endothelium) Establishment of a Metastatic Tumor - Depends on drainage pathways, new microenvironment, location of original tumor

Back

seminoma

Front

type of testicular cancer arising from sperm-forming tissue

Back

coarctation of the aorta

Front

narrowing of the descending portion of the aorta, resulting in a limited flow of blood to the lower part of the body

Back

Hypertrophic osteoarthropathy

Front

Dobverőujjak

Back

aplastic anemia

Front

characterized by an absence of all formed blood elements caused by the failure of blood cell production in the bone marrow

Back

Koliocytes

Front

the hallmakr of HPV infeciton. They are pyknotic, superfical or immature squamous cells with a dense, irregularly staining cytoplasm and perinuclear halo-like clearing

Back
