Presentation Transcript

  1. Chronic Obstructive Lung Diseases(COPD)Lecture Qassim University, Faculty of Medicine Year II , 201 DENM Pathology Department Presented by Dr. Ola Omran

  2. Obstructive diseases • Decreased expiratory flow rate • Loss ofelastic recoil as in emphysema • Anatomic airway narrowing as in asthma • Emphysema • Chronic Bronchitis • Bronchial Asthma COPD

  3. EMPHYSEMA • Abnormal permanent enlargementof the air spaces distal to the terminal bronchioles, accompanied by destructionof their walls without obvious fibrosis. • Overinflation : enlargement of air spaces without destruction Four major types (1) Centriacinar (2) Panacinar (3) Distal acinar (4) Irregular

  4. MorphologyMP: EMPHYSEMA • Thinning and destruction of alveolar walls • With advanced disease, adjacent alveoli create large airspaces • Terminal and respiratory bronchioles may be deformed. • With the loss of elastic tissue alveoli tend to collapse during expiration • The number of alveolar capillaries is diminished Ruptured alveloli Alveoli are larger and fewer

  5. Cigarette smoking and emphysema

  6. Chronic bronchitis Prolonged lymphocytic inflammation of bronchial tree with hypertrophic mucosal glands that leads to productive cough Chronic bronchitis as a clinical definition, requires all of:     1. Persistent cough and sputum production     2. Present for at least 3 months     3. Present for at least 2 consecutive years

  7. Bronchitis Emphysema • Mild dyspnea, late. • Infections common • Prominent BV • Large heart. • Severe dyspnea, early. • Infections occasional • Hyperinflation • Small heart.

  8. Emphysema is morphologic feature & restricted to the acinus Chronic bronchitis is clinical feature & involve large and small airways

  9. Complications • Secondary pulmonary hypertension • Pulmonary failure with respiratory acidosis, hypoxia, and coma. • hypoxia-> Polycythemia • Right-sidedheart failure (cor pulmonale). • Infections, Bronchectasis. • Bulla-Pneumothorax, collapse

  10. 3. Bronchial Asthma Chronic inflammatory disorder of the airways that causes recurrent episodes of wheezing, breathlessness, chest tightness, & cough, particularly at night and/or early in the morning

  11. MP: Bronchial Asthma 1- Hypertrophy of submucosal mucous glands 2- Accumulation of mucus in the bronchial lumen 3- Intense chronic inflammation (eosinophils, macrophages) 4- Thickened basement membrane 5- Hypertrophy and hyperplasia of smooth muscle cells.

  12. Extrinsic :Association with atopy (allergies) mediated by type 1 hypersensitivity, and asthmatic attacks are precipitated by contact with inhaled allergens. This form occurs most often in childhoodIntrinsic : Asthmatic attacks are precipitated by respiratory infections, exposure to cold, exercise, stress, inhaled irritants, and drugs such as aspirin.Adults are most often affected Bronchial Asthma

  13. Mechanism of Asthma • Allergy • Inflammation of Bronchi • Obstruction • Mucous Plugs

  14. Drug-Induced Asthma • Pharmacologic agents provoke asthma, aspirin • Mechanism remains unknown Occupational Asthma • asthma is stimulated by: • fumes (plastics) • organic and chemical dusts (wood, cotton, platinum) • gases (toluene) • Develop after repeated exposure to the inciting antigen(s).

  15. CHRONIC ASTHMA • The bronchial lumen filled with mucus • Submucosa widened by • smooth muscle hypertrophy, • edema, • inflammation (mainly eosinophils) • Hypertrophy of submucosal mucous glands

  16. Sputum smear CHRONIC ASTHMA CURSCHMANN'S SPIRAL, Spiral shaped mucous plug+shedded epithielium. Charcot-Leyden crystalsEosinophilic needle-shaped crystalline structures. Represents breakdown products of eosinophils
