Monoclonal gammopathy
excess immunoglobins
benign

MUST WATCH for conversion to MULTIPLE MYELOMA
Multiple Myeloma
comprised of myeloma cells (plasma cell tumors in marrow)
excess IgG or A and excess light chains
osteocloast activating factor-IL-6-why bones look "punched out" (IL-1 too)
Multiple Myeloma buzz words
Bence Jones proteins
amyloidosis
hypercalcemia
anemia or leukocytopenia
increase susceptibility to infections
M spike
Waldenstroms's
primary macroglobulimemia
males>females
flame cells (eosinophilic neoplastic plasma cells)
HYPERVISCOSITY SYNDROME-bc overproduction of IgM (huge molecule that thickens blood) so we get fatigue, weakness, skin and mucosal bleeding, headache, visual problems, neuro porblems.
Phlebrothrombosis
clots in veins
Virchow's Triad
1-blood stasis
2-hypercoaguabe
3-endothelial cell damage
Trousseau's Syndrome
migratory venous thrombosis that may occur as an extreme example of phelbothrombosis
Atherosclerosis
high LDL
contains foam cells
lesions form most in large and medium sized arteries
plaque-depo of LDL onto the intima of BV with subsequent accum of foam cells and inflam mediators
Atherosclerotic plaques 3 major effects
1-decrease luminal dimensions
2-lead to eventual atrophy of media = wall weakening=anyerism
3-when disrupted, attract platelets that form overlying platelet clot that complete occules bv or breaks off to embolize downstream to where it obstructs blood flow
Atherosclerosis in creases the risk for
CVA-stroke
PVD and PAD
Ischemic Heart Dz
Mesenteric ischmia
Aortic anerysm
Monckeberg's
bening
calcium deposits in bv media to produce lumps
common in radial and ulnar arteriers
old people
Arteriolosclerosis-hyperplastic
malignant HTN systolic >120 or dyastolic >150
small arts and arterioles
"onion skin hyperplasia" of the media
Arterioloscleross - hyaline
inflammation and use
etiologies: HTN, old, DM
overtime, bv basement memebrane bc thick causing narrowing of the lumen
small art and arterioles
Nephrosclerosis when assoc. w/ kidney
vasculitits
inflammation of blood vessel walls
arteritits & phlebitis
Large Vessel Arteritis
Giant Cell
Takayasu
Medium Vessel Arteritits
Polyarteritis nodosa
Kawasaki
Thromboangiitis obliterans
Small Vessels Arteritis
Wegners
Henoch-schonlein
Hypersensitivity arteritis
Churg-Strauss
Microscopic Polyangiitis
Thromboangiitis obliterans
Hypersensitivity Artereritis
small vessel
type III hypersensitivity (immune cplx deposits)-drugs (penicillin),tumors, HCV, EBV, HIV
affects primary-SKIN, muscles, brain and kidney
palpable purpura, papules (esp in butt), PAINFUL, pruritic
Henoch-Schonlein
small vessel
variant of Hypersentsitivity Art.
Kids
palpable purpura (butt), arthralgias, bloody diarrhea & glomerulonephritis
Polyarteritis nodosa PAN
Medium vessels
transmural nercotizing inflammation of arterial walls.
secondart to-HBV, HCV, hairy cell leukemia
fever, ab pain and melena, renal dz (WITHOUT glomerulonepthritis bc served by caps) with HTN, neuritis of motor neurons, diffuse myalgia
fatal if untreated
Microscopic poly angitis
small vessels
similar to PAN but with small vessels
initiated by a reaction to drugs (penicillin)
p-ANCA
sever glomerulonephritis and pulmonary capillaritis
palpable purpura, hemoptysis, hematuria, myalgia
Thromboangiitis Obliterans (Buerger's Dz)
small vessel
hypersensitivity to TOBACCO, Jewish <35 smokers
tibial and radial arteries
neutrophils surrounded by granulomas cause blood vessel destruction = sever pain in distal limb that progresses to gangrene
Giant Cell Arteritis
large vessel
granulomatous inflammation of vessel wall
FEMALES over 50
Temporal Arteritis
type of Giant Cell that occurs in temporal arteries
TETRAD-fever, fatigue, temporal headache, high ESR
may cause "jaw claudication"
untreated=sudden monocular blindness
Polymyalgia rheumatica
systemic Giant Cell
flu like symptoms w/ arthalgia and myalgia
fever and very high ERS
may lead to limb claudication, CVA, MI, aortic anerysm and visceral organ infarct
Wegener's Granulomatosis
small vessel
c-ANCA
sinusitis, lung lesions & glomerulonephritis
Takayasu Atereritis (aortic arch syndrome)
large vessel
thickening of aortic arch with huge granulomatous formation.
Asian females 15-40
night sweats, chest pain, weak or absent periph pulse, eventual organ ischemia
Kawasaki Dz (mucocutaneous lymph node syndrome
medium vessel
histologically similar to PAN
fever, conjunctivitis, maculopapular rash (erythema of HANDS AND SOLES) coronary artery anerysm, oral mucosal erythema and cervical lymph node enlargement
leading cause acquired of heart dz inUSE & Japan
treat-IV immunoglobulins & ASPIRIN`
Churg-Strauss (allergic angiitis)
small vessel-bc must be small for wedding dress
granulomas plus PAN like histologic features in the vessel wall plus marrive eosinophil invasion both in vessel wall and surrounding tissues
