what are the 3 major fever/rash diseases seen in children
|
roseola, B19 parvovirus, papillomavirus
|
|
were is the target cell for parvovirus?
|
the bone marrow
|
|
what is the major disease/syndrome seen with B19 parvovirus
|
Fifth's disease (aka slapped cheek disease)
|
|
a patient comes in with a lacelike rash on their arms as well as a rash on the cheeks of the face. What is the likely cause of this?
|
B19 parvovirus
|
|
Transient aplastic crisis (TAC) is what? what causes it?
|
affects precursor cells to red blood cells; see persistent anemia
in immunodeficiency caused by B19 parvovirus |
|
how is B19 parvovirus spread?
|
primarily by respiratory droplets
very common |
|
what age will you see the majority of parvovirus infected patients?
|
6-15 account for 70%
|
|
if a woman is not immune to B19 PV at the time of conception, is there concern that the child can get the virus?
|
vertical transmission in approximately 1/4th of primary maternal infections.
90% of those are inconsequential again though |
|
how does B19 PV spread in the body?
|
breathed in, cause fever, then move via lymph and blood to bone parrow
|
|
what stage in erythropoesis do you have infection via B19
|
at the proerythroblast stage it is expressing a large amount of P-antigen which the B19 virus can affect (may want more detail in this)
|
|
what will you see in a blood smear of someone with B19 PV?
|
you wont have reticulocytes (they aren't produced)
|
|
where does B19 get replicated?
|
in proerythroblasts
|
|
why do RBCs get destroyed (hemophagocytic syndrome) when you have B19PV?
|
the RBCs will be covered in B19 virus so macrophages come and destroy them, because they now appear to be foreign
|
|
in addition to proerythroblasts, what expresses P-antigen? what effect can this have?
|
Granulocytes and megakaryocytes have them
B19 can thus disrupt monocyte and platelet formation this is small though |
|
What is the major receptor for the B19PV?
|
p-antigen
|
|
how do you get arthritis associated with B19PV?
|
immune complexes will aggregate in the joint fluid
|
|
how do you get rash associated with B19PV?
|
immune complexes will aggregate on the wall of blood vessels
|
|
before the rash occurs in erythema infectiosum what would you see in a blood smear?
|
no reticulocytes
due to B19PV |
|
a patient comes in with a fever of unknown origin. You do a blood smear and find no reticulocytes. What do you know they have?
|
B19 Parvovirus
|
|
an adult male comes to your office with rash on the hands and feet, what do you think they have?
|
gloves and socks syndrome
due to B19PV |
|
when does gloves and socks sydrome occur ?
what about Fifth's Disease? |
gloves and socks: at the time of the infection of B19pv
5ths: later than infection |
|
what causes the gloves and socks appearance?
|
underlying capillaries have P-antigen that B19PV can bind to
the surface also has virus that can be easily transmitted |
|
What is non-immune hydrops fetalis?
|
B19PV infection during pregnancy
greatest chance of adverse outcome is between 11 and 23 weeks of gestation. affects the liver of child leading to anemia fatality rate of 50% |
|
what is a preventative treatment of non-immune hydrops fetalis?
|
fetal transfusion beneficial,
also postnatal IVIG |
|
what is Transient Aplastic Crisis (TAC):
|
Follows B19 infection of patients with sickle cell disease, other hemolytic anemias, iron deficiency, ά and β thalassemias, other RBC deficiencies (rapid RBC turnover
Short RBC half-life (4-10 days) in SCA leads to hemoglobin deficiency |
|
a patient with known and managed sickle cell disease comes to your office and is seriously anemic. Upon blood smear you find no reticulocytes. you immediately order a transfusion because your patient has?
|
Transient Aplastic Crisis (TAC)
B19PV |
|
MAKE CARDS OFF SLIDE 10
|
it basically lays out how to diagnose
|
|
papilloma virus causes what?
|
benign tumors (warts)
|
|
what is responsible for 95% of malignant cervical carcinoma?
|
HPV
|
|
what is the most common sexually transmitted disease in the world?
|
HPV
|
|
Where does BK virus effect?
|
kidney
|
|
JC virus causes infection of the?
|
brain
|
|
What 2 genes in HPV are important in causing problems in humans?
|
E6 and E7 genes
affect cell cycle proteins |
|
what does the E7 gene of papilloma virus cause?
|
retinoblastoma gene
no stop signal for growth |
|
what does the E6 gene of HPV do?
|
inhibits p53
promotes telomerase |
|
what is a condyloma?
|
mucocutaneous warts seen in HPV
high potential for malignancy |
|
what layer of skin does the papilloma virus infect?
|
basal layer
|
|
does the B19 parvovirus replicate in the basal layer?
|
no just infects, doesn't have everything it needs to replicate
|
|
what is acanthosis?
|
hyperplasia of prickle cells in skin that leads to development of wart in HPV
|
|
what are koilocytes?
|
site of virus replication for HPV

|
koliocytes
