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]
These granulomas are the main reason for the name granulomatosis with polyangiitis, although it is not an essential feature. Nevertheless, necrotizing granulomas are a hallmark of this disease. However, many biopsies can be nonspecific and 50% provide too little information for the diagnosis of GPA. [12]
Lethal midline granuloma (LMG) is an historical term for a condition in which necrotic and highly destructive lesions develop progressively in the middle of the face, principally the nose and palate. Many cases presented with ulcerations in or perforations of the palate.
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.
Granuloma; Picture of a granuloma (without necrosis) as seen through a microscope on a glass slide: The tissue on the slide is stained with two standard dyes (hematoxylin: blue, eosin: pink) to make it visible. The granuloma in this picture was found in a lymph node of a patient with a Mycobacterium avium infection. Specialty: Pathology

Pulmonary tuberculosis characterized by granulomatous inflammation with necrotizing epithelioid granulomas. Category: Histopathology of pulmonary tuberculosis Aspergilloma of lung: This ectatic bronchus is filled with a colony of Aspergillus. The organisms are confined to the lumen of the bronchus and do not invade surrounding tissues.
Necrobiotic granuloma is described as aggregation of histiocytes around a central area of altered collagen and elastic fibers. Such a granuloma is typically arranged in a palisaded pattern. [2] It is associated with necrobiosis lipoidica and granuloma annulare. Necrobiosis differs from apoptosis, which kills a damaged cell to protect the body ...
