An excess of blood in a part of the body:

Hyperemia

An enlargement of a tissue or organ resulting from an increase in number of normal cells:

Hyperplasia

Adherence of WBC's to the walls of a blood vessel during inflammation:

Pavementing

A localized swelling of tissue because of edema (often accompanied by itching):

Wheal

WBCs move to the periphery of the blood vessel wall during inflammation (name of this process):

Margination

A process of ingestion & digestion by cells:

Phagocytosis

The pathological death by one or more cells or a portion of tissue or organ resulting from irreversible damage:

Necrosis

An enlargement of a tissue or organ resulting in an increase in size but not in number of cells:

Hypertrophy

Pertaining to or affecting the body as a whole:

Systemic

A circumscribed, elevated lesion that is more than 5 mm in diameter; looks like a blister:

Bulla

A collection of pus that has accumulated in a cavity formed by the tissue:

Abscess

The passage of the WBCs through the endothelium and wall of the microcirculation into injured tissue:

Emigration

The 2nd WBC to arrive at the site of injury & is involved in Phagocytosis:

Macrophage

The 1st WBC to arrive at the site of injury:

Neutrophil

A non-specific response to injury that involves the microcirculation and its blood cells:

Inflammation

Another name for "dry socket":

Alveolar Osteitis

An increase in the number of WBC's circulating in the blood:

Leukocytosis

The directed movement of WBC's to the area of injury by chemical mediators:

Chemotaxis

Name for salivary gland stone:

Sialolith

Redness of the skin or mucosa:

Erythema

Name the 5 Cardinal (classic) signs of inflammation:

1- Redness


2- Heat


3- Swelling


4- Pain


5- Loss of normal tissue function

What is the difference between acute & chronic?

Acute: injury minimal, brief, source removed from tissue, short inflammatory response.




Chronic: injury continues, longer inflammatory response.

What is the difference between local & systemic inflammatory factors?

Local: limited to the area of injury




Systemic: affects the body as a whole

What is the difference between neutrophil & macrophage?

Neutrophil: 1st type of WBC to arrive at the site of injury (phagocytosis)




Macrophage: 2nd type of WBC to arrive at the site of injury (within the tissue)

Which healing intention is described as the healing of an injury in which little loss of tissue takes place, such as in a surgical incision; very little granulation tissue forms:

Healing by Primary Intention

Which healing intention is described as injury in which tissue is lost; thus the injury cannot be joined during healing, creating a large clot to slowly form; increased formation of granulation tissue:

Healing by Secondary Intention

Which healing intention is described as an infection occurring at the site of a surgical incision that is healing by primary intention?

Healing by Tertiary Intention

Name 4 Systemic Signs of Inflammation:

1- Fever


2- Increase in number of WBC's (leukocytosis)


3- Enlargement of Lymph Nodes (lympadenopathy)


4- Elevated c-reactive protein

Which 3 events occur in the microscopic events of the inflammatory response?

1- Hyperemia


2- Exudate formation


3- Pressure on nerves by exudate formation

What is the difference between hyperplasia & hypertrophy?

Hyperplasia: increase in number of cells in tissue or organ




Hypertrophy: increase in the size of individual cells, not the number

Lesion that forms when a minor salivary gland is damaged:

mucucele

Which cells can & do produce histamines and also participate in the immune response?

Eosinophils & Mast Cells

what is AKA bone cyst, caused by trauma, and is a condition of the jaws?

traumatic bone cyst

what is composed of pus or supporation surrounded by CT containing neutrophils & lymphocytes?

periapical abscess



True cyst consisting of pathologic cavity lined by endothelium is called:

Radicular Cyst

A localized mass of chronologically inflammed granulation tissue that forms at opening of pulp is called:

Periapical granuloma

Neutrophils consitute how much of the entire WBC population?

60-70%

What system in the blood mediates inflammation by causing increased dilation of blood vessels at the site of injury & increases permeability of local blood vessels?

Kinin System

What is the most common site for a pulp polyp?

Primary & Permanent Molars

Which of the following inflammatory periapical lesions is the most painful?


-periapical abscess


-periapical granuloma


-radicular cyst


-residual cyst

Periapical Abscess

The most common (benign) soft tissue neoplasm of the oral cavity is:

Irritation Fibroma
