Cell Markers and Genetic Abnormalities for Hodgkin and Non-Hodgkin Lymphomas


HODGKIN LYMPHOMA

Hodgkin lymphoma with a Reed-Sternberg cell
In the center of the photomicrograph is a classic Reed-Sternberg cell,a binucleate cell with large “owl’s eyes” eosinophilic nucleoli.

Hodgkin lymphoma, nodular sclerosis variant
Note the nodules of lymphocytes and other hematopoietic cells divided by broad fibrous septae.

Hodgkin lymphoma, mixed cellularity variant
Note the Reed-Sternberg cell (arrowhead). The other cell types in this image are reactive (only the Reed-Sternberg cell is neoplastic) and include neutrophils, lymphocytes, and, prominently in this image,eosinophils.

NON-HODGKIN LYMPHOMA
Spleen, non-Hodgkin lymphoma. This spleen exhibits uniform multicentric involvement of the white pulp by a malignant lymphoma. These changes contribute to generalized splenomegaly.

Follicular lymphoma

This lymph node exhibits the characteristic low power features of follicular lymphoma, tightly packed lymphoid follicles of approximately equal size.
Follicular lymphoma involves this hilar lymph node. The black material (arrow) represents normal lymphoid parenchyma with anthracotic pigment displaced 
to one side by the expanding tan lymphomatous process.


Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma
The photomicrograph shows a sheet of monotonous large neoplastic cells with prominent nucleoli.

Burkitt lymphoma
This photomicrograph illustrates the characteristic low power features of Burkitt lymphoma, a sheet of neoplastic cells interspersed with punctate clearings (“starry sky pattern”). The punctate clearings are macrophages engulfing cellular debris. Burkitt lymphoma is an aggressive rapidly growingneoplasm with abundant cellular turnover, hence the presence of the macrophages


Hairy cell leukemia
In the upper left corner is a single neoplastic lymphoid cell. Note the fine hair-like projections from its surface.

Developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH)

Definition
  • A spectrum of disorders ranging from complete dislocation of the femoral head to a reduced hip joint with acetabular dysplasia



Types:
1. Complete hip dislocation.
2. Partial hip subluxation.
3. Hip dysplasia (incomplete development).

Risk factors:
  • family history - may reflect laxity of ligaments
  • Race- common in white 
  • Breech  presentation - Exaggerated positioning in acute flexion and adduction in utero may occur
  • Female sex - the presence of maternal relaxin in the fetal circulatory system
  • large fetal size 
  • First born child
Galeazzi's test
  • With the child is lying on a flat surface, flex the hips and knees so the heels rest flat on the table, just distal to the buttock . 
  • A dislocated hip is signaled by relative shortening of the thigh compared with the normal leg, as shown by the difference in knee height level. 
  • This test is almost always useless in children under 1 year of age and is negative if dislocation is bilateral.


Barlow's test
  • This is a provocative test that picks up an unstable but located hip; it is unsuitable for a dislocated hip. 
  • Thighs are gently grasped in the hand, with the thumb at the lesser trochanter and fingers at the greater trochanter . The hip is adducted slightly and gently pushed posteriorly with the palm. 
  • Detection of "pistoning," or the sensation of the femoral head subluxating over the posterior rim of the acetabulum, is a positive finding.



Ortolani's test:
  • This test detects hips that are already dislocated. 
  • The flexed limb is grasped as in Barlow's test. The hip is abducted while the femur is gently lifted with the fingers at the greater trochanter. 
  • In a positive test, there will be a sensation of the hip reducing back into the acetabulum. 







Clinical Manifestations

In newborn:
  • We can diagnose DDH in this period by positive Ortolani’s test or Barlow’s test.
  • Asymmetry of the skin fold may help, but its not specific. 
  • Shortening of the limb at this age doesn’t exist.
  • We cant use X-rays because the acetabulum and proximal femur are cartilaginous and wont be shown on X-ray.
  • USG is the best method to Dx.

In the early childhood:
  • Parents notice asymmetry of creases of groin, limitation of movement of affected hip or click every time hip is moved

In older children:
  • Complaints of limping, waddling gait (bilateral DDH), Trendelenburg’s gait (unilateral DDH), lumbar lordosis, limitation of hip abduction, etc…

X-ray

Von Rosen view:
hips abducted 45º & medially rotated.
Anteroposterior.
We draw a line through the central axis of the femoral shaft.
        in normal hip ( ossific nucleus )will be inside the acetabulum.
        in dislocated hip it will be above acetabulum.


Delayed development of ossific nucleus / smaller
Horizontal line of Hilgenreiner:
   drawn between upper ends of tri-radiate cartilage of the acetabulum.
Vertical line of Perkins:
  drawn from the lateral edge of the acetabulum vertical to horizontal line.
4 quadrants:
Normal hip: the ossification center of the femoral hip lower medial quadrant.
Dislocated hip: upper lateral quadrant.


Acetabular index:
    angle between horizontal line of Hilgenreiner and the line between the two edges of the acetabulum.
    normal hip 20º-300 
    dilocated or dysplastic hip ≥ 30º
Shenton’s line:
    semicircle between femoral neck and upper arm of obturator foramen, in dislocated hip this line is broken.

Treatment:


The earlier the better. 
Exact treatment depends on patient age at presentation and degree of involvement
Goal is to:
1.Flex and abduct hips.
2.Reduce femoral head and maintaining it.
Reduction can be achieved by closed manipulation , traction followed by closed reduction and opened reduction  
 maintenance can be done using plaster cast(frog leg or Batchelor) or splint (von Rosen’s splint)

  • Acetabular reconstruction procedure
  • Salter’s osteotomy
  • Chiari’s pelvic displacement osteotomy 
  • Pemberton’s pericapsular osteotomy

  • From (0-6 months)  
A dislocated hip at this age may spontaneously reduce over 2-3 weeks if the hip is held in a position of flexion. 
Reduction by closed manipulation and maintained with plaster cast or splint
  • From 6 months -2 year
Gentle closed reduction of the dislocation under a general anesthetic and maintenance of a located position for 2-3 months in a hip spica cast usually stabilize the joint
  • From the age of 2-6 years:

open reduction with osteotomy

  • 6-10 years

No treatment for bilateral
Open reduction with reconstruction for unilateral

  • After 10 years

Only indication for treatemnt is pain. If only one hip affected total hip replacement may be done.

Pathogenesis of Disseminated Intravascular Coagulation (DIC)

  • Consumptive Coagulopathy
  • Widespread coagulation leading to thrombin formation all over body and consumption of all platelets and coagulation factors.
  • Everything is consumed, and there are thrombi all over body.
  • Bleeding and vessel occlusion at the same time


  • Which LAB parameters will be abnormal???
  • All that you can think of….
  • Bleeding time, PT, aPTT, D-dimer, Fibrin Split Products

CORONARY ARTERIES


From: Ascending aorta
To: Myocardium 

Right coronary artery. Originates from the anterior (new nomenclature: right) aortic sinus. It passes anteriorly between the pulmonary trunk and the right auricle to reach the atrioventricular sulcus in which it runs down the anterior surface of the right cardiac border and then onto the inferior surface of the heart. It terminates at the junction of the atrioventricular sulcus and the posterior interventricular groove by anastomosing with the circumflex branch of the left coronary artery and giving off the posterior interventricular (posterior descending) artery. It supplies the right atrium and part of the left atrium, the sinuatrial node in 60% of cases, the right ventricle, the posterior part of the inter- ventricular septum and the atrioventricular node in 80% of cases.
Left coronary artery. Arises from the left posterior (new nomenclature: left) aortic sinus. It passes laterally, posterior to the pulmonary trunk and anterior to the left auricle to reach the atrioventricular groove where it divides into an anterior interventricular (formally left anterior descending) artery and circumflex branches.
The circumflex artery runs in the atrio- ventricular sulcus around the left border of the heart to anastornose with the right coronary artery. The anterior inter-ventricular artery descends on the anterior surface of the heart in the anterior interventricular groove and around the apex of the heart into the posterior interven-
tricular groove where it anastomoses with the posterior interventricular branch of the right coronary artery. The left coronary artery supplies the left atrium, left ventricle, anterior interventricular septum, sinuatrial
node in 40% of cases and the atrioven- tricular node in 20%.
Dominance. In approximately 10% of hearts the posterior interventricular artery arises from the circumflex artery (left coronary) and then most of the left ventricle and interventricular septum are supplied by the
left coronary artery. The heart is said to have left cardiac dominance.

Important presentation about Thalassemia (Microcytic Anemia)

  • Definition: hereditary underproduction of either the alpha or beta globin chains of the hemoglobin A  resulting in a  microcytic anemia.
  • Beta thalassemias are due to mutations in the HBB gene on chromosome 11.
  • The α thalassemias involve the genes HBA1 and HBA2 on chromosome 16.

Beta- Thalassemia
  • The β-globin mutations associated with β-thalassemia fall into two categories: 
  • (1) β0, in which no β-globin chains are produced; and 
  • (2) β+, in which there is reduced (but detectable) β-globin synthesis
  • Individuals inheriting one abnormal allele have thalassemia minor or thalassemia trait, which is asymptomatic or mildly symptomatic. 
  • Most individuals inheriting any two β0 and β+ alleles have β-thalassemia major; 
  • occasionally, individuals inheriting two β+ alleles have a milder disease termed β-thalassemia intermedia.

Alpha-Thalassemias
  • alpha- thalassemias result in decreased alpha-globin production, therefore fewer alpha-globin chains are produced, resulting in an excess of β chains in adults and excess γ chains in newborns.The excess β chains form unstable tetramers (called Hemoglobin H or HbH of 4 beta chains) which have abnormal . The severity of the alpha- thalassemias is correlated with the number of affected alpha-globin genes.  
  •  alpha0 thalassaemias, where there is lots of gama4 but no alpha-globins at all (referred to as Hb Barts), often result in still birth.
  • The most severe form of alpha thalassemia major causes stillbirth.
  • Other symptoms can include:
  • Bone deformities in the face
  • Fatigue
  • Growth failure
  • Shortness of breath
  • splenomegaly
Diagnostic features of beta-thalassaemia

Dx
  • A physical exam may reveal a swollen (enlarged) spleen.
  • Blood test:
  • Red blood cells will appear small and abnormally shaped when looked at under a microscope.
  • A complete blood count (CBC) reveals anemia.
  • A test called hemoglobin electrophoresis shows the presence of an abnormal form of hemoglobin

Rx
  • Treatment for thalassemia major often involves regular blood transfusions and folate supplements.
  • If you receive blood transfusions, you should not take iron supplements. Doing so can cause a high amount of iron to build up in the body, which can be harmful.
  • Persons who receive significant numbers of blood transfusions need a treatment called chelation therapy to remove excess iron from the body.
  • Bone marrow transplant may help treat the disease in some patients, especially children.
  • Hydrops fetalis: none available 
  • Haemoglobin H: no specific therapy required; avoid iron therapy; folic acid if necessary
