DISORDERS OF PERFUSION Dr. J yothi Reshma S Tutor Dept of Pathology HYPEREMIA, CONGESTION, HEMORRHAGE HEMODYNAMICS - 2
ACTIVE HYPEREMIA Active hyperemia : increased supply of blood from the arterial system Physiologic response to increased functional demand Eg : heart and skeletal muscle during exercise, inflammation Neurogenic and hormonal influences Reactive hyperemia - temporary interruption of blood supply (ischemia) - histamine
PASSIVE HYPEREMIA Passive hyperemia or congestion : impaired exit of blood through venous pathways Increased hydrostatic pressure - edema . L ack of blood flow - chronic hypoxia - ischemic tissue injury and scarring. Capillary rupture - small hemorrhages - catabolism of extravasated red cells - hemosiderin-laden macrophages - Chronic venous congestion (CVC)
CVC LUNG Enlarged, heavy Fibrosis + iron = firm brown lung - brown induration
CVC LUNG Alveolar congestion Intra-alveolar hemorrhage Hemosiderin-laden macrophages in the lung - congestive heart failure – heart failure cells
LIVER - ORGANIZATION
CVC LIVER Distension - central vein and sinusoids Centrilobular area is at the distal end of the hepatic blood supply - ischemic necrosis Periportal hepatocytes - better oxygenated because of proximity to hepatic arterioles — fatty change.
CVC LIVER – NUTMEG LIVER Dark foci of centrilobular congestion surrounded by paler zones of unaffected peripheral portions of the lobules
CVC LIVER – M/S C entrilobular hemorrhage H emosiderin-laden macrophages H epatocyte dropout and necrosis
CVC SPLEEN Gross : enlarged and tense M /s: Diffuse splenic fibrosis - iron-containing, fibrotic and calcified foci of old hemorrhage Gamna -Gandy bodies E xcessive functional activity— hypersplenism - hematologic abnormalities - thrombocytopenia
HEMORRHAGE E scape of blood from the vasculature into surrounding tissues, a hollow organ or body cavity, or to the outside ETIOLOGY, TYPES, CONSEQUENCES
HEMATOMA L ocalized hemorrhage - within a tissue or organ
PETECHIAE Pinpoint hemorrhages - <3mm - skin or conjunctiva Rupture - capillary or arteriole C oagulopathies or vasculitis
PURPURA Diffuse superficial hemorrhages in the skin Up to 1 cm in diameter
ECCHYMOSIS L arge superficial hemorrhage in the skin > 1cm P urple – green – yellow (progressive oxidation of bilirubin released from the hemoglobin of degraded erythrocytes)
COMPREHENSION QUESTIONS A 40-year-old woman dies after a long history of an illness characterized by dyspnea , orthopnea , hepatomegaly, distended neck veins, and peripheral edema . The cut surface of the liver as it appears at autopsy is shown in the first panel. The second panel shows the microscopic appearance of the liver. What is the most likely cause of these findings?
A 36-year-old man dies during cardiac surgery . He had a history of long-standing rheumatic heart disease with mitral stenosis. At autopsy, the pathologist reports findings consistent with mitral stenosis and noted the presence of “heart failure cells.” This finding results from (A) activation of the coagulation cascade. (B) chronic passive congestion of the lungs. (C) hypoxic myocardial injury. (D) myocardial hyperemia .
