FSE 214 questions with complete
solutions
pathological anatomy - correct answer ✔✔study of structural changes in the body caused by disease
gross pathology - correct answer ✔✔study of changes in structure of the body that are readily seen with
the unaided eye as a result of disease
Histopathology - correct answer ✔✔microscopic examination of tissues for signs of disease
Surgical Pathology - correct answer ✔✔The study of tissue specimens excised surgically during
operations
clinical pathology - correct answer ✔✔study of disease by means of body secretions, excretions, and
other body fluids performed in the laboratory in the diagnosis of a disease
physiological pathology - correct answer ✔✔study of changes in body functions due to disease
lesion - correct answer ✔✔a pathologic change of the tissues due to disease or injury
idiopathic - correct answer ✔✔pertaining to disease of unknown origin
febrile - correct answer ✔✔feverish
fulminating - correct answer ✔✔having rapid and severe onset, usually fatal
iatrogenic disease - correct answer ✔✔a condition that is caused by a medical treatment
, Amyloid - correct answer ✔✔a waxy, starchlike protein that tends to build up in tissues and organs in
certain pathologic conditions. Common in certain cancers, chronic inflammatory diseases, chronic renal
failure, alzheimer, type 2 diabetes
Cellular Infiltration - correct answer ✔✔-Process of seepage/diffusion of a substance INTO a tissue
-Prior to swelling
-Cells undergo pigmentation
Exogenous Pigmentation - correct answer ✔✔tissue discoloration due to pigments that are not normally
present in the body
endogenous pigmentation - correct answer ✔✔an increase or irregularity in distribution of pigments
normally within the body such as a bruise
Cellular calcification - correct answer ✔✔implies the depositing of calcium salts, magnesium, iron, etc.
within the cell.
necrosis - correct answer ✔✔death of tissue
Necrosis process - correct answer ✔✔1. proteins are denatured (breakdown of cellular organelles) 2.
self-digestion of the cell through autolysis (lysosomes within the cell begin to break down the cell's
internal structures) manifests itself as caseation or gangrene
caseous necrosis - correct answer ✔✔degeneration and death of tissue with a cheese-like appearance
gangrene necrosis - correct answer ✔✔area of necrotic tissue that has been invaded by bacteria or
fungal infection
dry gangrene (ischemic necrosis) - correct answer ✔✔necrotic tissue due to a reduction in arterial blood
supply to a body part that remains aseptic
atrophy - correct answer ✔✔shrinkage in the size of the cell by the loss of cell substance.
