Biopsies from an upper GI endoscopy from a patient with GERD indicate the presence of cells which differ from the cells normally present in that area. Which of the following mucosal are alterations is most likely riprap resented by these findings?
dysplasia
hyperplasia
ischemia
metaplasia
And, a 25 year old woman, gives birth to her 2nd child and decides to breast feed the baby. Which of the following cellular changes will occur within the breast?
Displasia
hyperplasia
atrophy
metaplasia
Herbert, a 75 year old male Khama died from left sided heart failure. His heart had enlarged because of the increased workload due to the heart failure. The increased size of the heart is most likely due to which of the following processes involving myocardio fibers?
Fatty infiltration
Hyper pleasure
Dysplasia
Hypertrophy
Kate is a 13 year old female who has come to have a left arm cast removed. She has had the cast on for 6 weeks. After the cast is removed, Kate expresses concern about the size of her left arm, stating that it appears much thinner than her right arm. You tell her that this is a most likely due to the following:
Atrophy
Dystrophy
Anaplasia
Displasia
Stephen, a 65 year old male, suffered a mild cardio infarction. During a mile cardio and park shin, the heart is deprived of oxygen and the cardiac cells suffer from ischemia. Cardiac cells it cannot adapt to the a scheme you will suffer irreversible damage and die. This type of cell death is called:
Necrosis
Apoptosis
Serotosis
Cellular absorption
Characteristics of a apoptosis include all of the following except:
" Cellular suicide"
Both a physiologic and pathologic so response
A response to the removal of hormonal signal
Inflammation
Acromegaly is a condition of:
Hyperplasia
Displasia
Hypertrophy
Anaplasia
John, a 44 year old truck driver, has just been diagnosed with acromegaly. You would expect to see all the following signs accept:
Soft tissue swelling.
Excessive increase in height.
Snoring.
Skin changes.
The patient with acromegaly asked you to explain why this is occurring in his body. You tell him that :
It is due to the non fusion of his growth plates.
It is due to the hypersecretion of excess growth hormone.
He is experiencing metaplasia due to the growth hormone.
It is a temporary response that will resolve in time.
You are carrying for Carolyn a 16 year old with HPV. Carroll and ask you what HPV is. You explain that it is a:
Microbe.
Bacteria.
Virus.
Fungus.
Carolyn States that she does not feel quite sick on "and wonders why there is a concern over the HPV. You know that:
HPV Is not harmful and there is no need to be concerned.
The HPV will clear up on its own.
HPV is a benign Flora of the cervix.
Some types of HPV are associated with the development of cervical cancer.
Caroline agrees to have the colposcopy procedure. She asks you what is involved with this procedure. You explain that all the following will occur except that:
Small punch biopsies are taken from the cervix and sent to pathology.
An instrument is used for visualization of the cervix.
The cervix is painted with an acetic acid solution.
The cervix is dilated for the procedure.
The most significant change the path ologist will look for in cervical cells from my punch biopsy will be:
Dysplasia
Hypertrophy.
Atrophy.
Metaplasia.
Carolyn is a smoker with a 12 year history of smoking a 1/2 pack of cigarettes daily. She States that she feels fine and wonders why you suggest smoking cessation. You tell Carolyn that cells respond to their environment. If the cell is exposed to a chronic irritation such a smoke or pollution, the cells in the airways will adapt. This change related to it adaptation in cells is called:
Hyperplasia.
Metaplasia.
Hypoplasia.
Dysplasia.
Carolyn is concerned about the threat of cancer. She ask you if the cellular adaptation is reversible if she stopped smoking now. You tell her that:
The metaplasia will not be reversible.
Cells with metaplasia often return to their normal state when the irritation or stressor is removed.
The cells will not change any further, so there is no need for concern.
Metaplasia is a benign cellular adaptation.
