  2. Caseous necrosis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Caseous_necrosis

    Caseous necrosis in the kidney. In caseous necrosis no histological architecture is preserved (unlike with coagulative necrosis). [5] [6] On microscopic examination with H&E staining, the area is acellular, characterised by amorphous, roughly granular eosinophilic debris of now dead cells, [6] also containing interspearsed haematoxyphilic remnants of cell nucleus contents. [5]

  3. Granuloma - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Granuloma

    Sarcoidosis is a disease of unknown cause characterized by non-necrotizing ("non-caseating") granulomas in multiple organs and body sites, [12] most commonly the lungs and lymph nodes within the chest cavity. Other common sites of involvement include the liver, spleen, skin, and eyes.

  4. Tuberculous lymphadenitis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tuberculous_lymphadenitis

    The characteristic morphological element is the tuberculous granuloma (caseating tubercule): giant multinucleated cells (Langhans cells), surrounded by epithelioid cells aggregates, T cell lymphocytes and few fibroblasts. Granulomatous tubercules evolve to central caseous necrosis and tend to become confluent, replacing the lymphoid tissue.

  5. Mycobacterial cervical lymphadenitis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mycobacterial_cervical...

    The classical histologic pattern of scrofula features caseating granulomas with central acellular necrosis (caseous necrosis) surrounded by granulomatous inflammation with multinucleated giant cells. Although tuberculous and non tuberculosis lymphadenitis are morphologically identical, the pattern is somewhat distinct from other causes of ...

  6. Crohn's disease - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crohn's_disease

    Key tissue changes include granulomas, which may be caseating, confluent, or large. A positive smear test for acid-fast bacillus and imaging that detects necrotic lymph nodes are also important indicators of the disease. [1] Ischemic colitis is also a possible alternative diagnosis to Crohn's disease. It often shows swelling and redness of the ...

  7. Langhans giant cell - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Langhans_giant_cell

    Granulation tissue with a poorly formed granuloma to the left of centre. Within this area there is a multinucleate giant cell of the Langhans type. The patient had a healing mycobacterial infection of the skin (Mycobacterium ulcerans infection). Langhans giant cells (LGC) are giant cells found in granulomatous conditions.

  8. Giant cell - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Giant_cell

    A giant cell (also known as a multinucleated giant cell, or multinucleate giant cell) is a mass formed by the union of several distinct cells (usually histiocytes), often forming a granuloma. [1] Although there is typically a focus on the pathological aspects of multinucleate giant cells (MGCs), they also play many important physiological roles.

  9. Granulomatous–lymphocytic interstitial lung disease - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Granulomatous–lymphocytic...

    Granulomatous–lymphocytic interstitial lung disease (GLILD) is a lung complication of common variable immunodeficiency disorders (CVID). It is seen in approximately 15% of patients with CVID. [ 1 ] It has been defined histologically as the presence of (non-caseating) granuloma and lymphoproliferation in the lung. [ 1 ]
