X linked severe persistent diarrhea and autoimmune disease that occurs most often in young children o IPEX = immune dysregulation, polyendocrinopathy, enteropathy and X linkage; d/t germline mutation in FOXP3-->defective T regulatory func | Autoimmune enteropathy |
whipworms. Heavy infect--> bloody d and rectal prolapse | Trichiura |
traveler’s diarrhea. Oocysts killed by freezing, but resist Cl. Activated by stomach acid. | Cryptosporidium |
trauma induced prolif w/ entrapment of epthel lined cysts | Gastritis Cystica |
small icosahedral single strand RNA. Causes lots of gastroenteritis. Cruise ships | Norovirus |
traveler’s diarrhea, contam food/water, heat labile toxin (LT) and heat stable toxin (ST) induce Cl and water secretion while inhibiting intestinal fluid absorption. | Etoxigenic EC |
pork, raw milk, contam water. Likes iron. Ileum, appendix, right colon. o Extra intest symps = pharyngitis, arthralgia, erythema nodosum | Yersinia |
pin worms live in lumen, deposit eggs at butthole-->pruritus contaminates fingers. Tapebut | Vermicularis |
O157:H7, undercooked ground beef. Shiga-like toxins-->dysentery and HUS - Einvasive EC: similar to shigella | Ehemorrhagic EC |
most often associated w/ H. pylori. Most common in gastric antrum and prox duod. o Round to oval sharply punched out ulcer. o Pain 1 to 3 hrs after meals, worse at night , relieved by alkali or food | PUD |
most common pathogenic parasitic infect in humans. Cysts resist Cl. Pear shaped and owl eyes. | Giardia lamblia |
most common mesenchymal tumor of the abdomen, many in stomach. Large. o Carney triad: young females have GIST, paraganglioma, and pulm chondromas o Also increased GIST w neurofibromatosis type 1 o Oncogenic gain of func muts of gene encoding c-KIT | GI stromal tumor (GIST) |
most common malig of stomach. Symp: weight loss, altered bowels, anemia, hemorrh. Loss of func Mut CDH1, encodes E-cadherin. o Diffuse rugal flattening and a rigid, thick wall = leather bottle appearance linitis plastica | Gastric Adenocarcinoma o Metastases: to supraclavicular sentinel lymph node = Virchow’s node, periumbilical = Sister Mary Joseph nodule o Intestinal: bulky tumors w/ glands o Diffuse infilt: signet-ring cells |
malabsorption diarrhea (d/t impaired lymph transport), lymphadenopathy, arthritis w foamy macrophages and many argyrophilic rods in lymph nodes, shaggy appearance of mucosal surface. Gram pos actinomycete – Tropheryma whippelii. | Whipple disease |
Lynch synd. Young. Right colon. Mutant MSH2 and MLH1. | Hereditary Non-Polyposis Colorectal Cancer |
cant secrete TG rich lipoprots. Mut microsomal TG transfer prot (MTP)->TGs accumulate w/in epithel cells. Presents in infancy w/ failure to thrive, diarrhea, steatorrhea. Complete absence of apolipoprotein B. Have Acanthocytic RBCs (Burr cells). | Abetalipoproteinemia |
gram neg. Nontyphoid usually d/t S. enteritidis infects young and old in summer and fall. Raw or undercooked meat. Bacterial growth w/in phagosomes. Antibiotics not recommended | Salmonellosis |
gram neg facultative anaerobes. L colon children in daycare, travelers and nursing home most commonly infected. 6 days diarrhea, fever and ab pain o Resistant gastric acid, low infective dose o Shiga toxin inhib eukaryotic protein synth->host cell death | Shigellosis Can lead to HUS and Reiters |
foveolar hyperplasia, gland regen changes, and mucosal edema. o Gastric antral trauma induces lesion called gastric antral vascular ectasia (GAVE), watermelon stomach | Reactive gastropathy |
excessive iron absorption and accumulation. Micronodular cirrhosis, DM, skin pigmentation. 50-60 y/o men. Lack of hepcidin d/t mutant hepcidin (HAMP) and HJV (juvenile), TfR2, HFE (most common). Brown fibrous organs slate-gray skin. 200 x risk for HCC. | Hemochromatosis o Hemosiderosis: acquired hemochromatosis d/t ineffective erythropoiesis (thalassemias and myelodysplastic synd) |
Can survive in gastric acid and gallblad o Peyer’s patches terminal ileum plateau elevations, oval ulcers. o Rose spots on chest and abdomen. Sickle cell susceptible to osteomyelitis. | Typhoid Anorexia, ab pain, bloating, N/V, dysentery, followed by short asymp phase, then bacteremia w fever and flu-like symptoms. |
encapsulated segmented 2x strand RNA. Most common cause of severe childhood diarrhea and diarrheal mortality worldwide. b/w 6 and 24 mos. 10 viral particles to infect | Rotavirus |
comma shaped, gram neg, improperly cooked chicken. Resists high temps. o Cholera-like toxin. Can cause watery di, dysentery, enteric fever, reactive arthritis, Guillan Barre | Campylobacter jejuni |
comma shaped, gram neg, contaminated drinking water and shellfish o cholera toxin (preformed) stimulates adenylate cyclaseincrease cAMPopen CFTR->Cl into lumen->secrete bicarb, NA and water->massive rice water diarrhea (fishy odor). | Vibrio cholerae |
chronic, watery diarrhea, w/o weight loss o Collagenous = older women, dense supbepi collagen layer, increased intraepi lymphocytes, mixed inflame infiltrate w/in lamina propria. o Lymphocytic=greater increase in intraepi lymphocytes. Strong ass w/ Celi | Microscopic colitis |
