ABSTRACT

A confusão conceitual e o diagnóstico microscópico equivocado são comuns no emprego dos termos tecido de granulação e granuloma. Quando as áreas lesadas estão livres do agente agressor, o tecido de granulação, um tecido quase embrionário, forma-se no local para dar lugar a um novo tecido conjuntivo, restabelecendo-se a normalidade e/ou preenchendo espaços. Por outro lado, a persistência do agressor promove a continuidade da inflamação com macrófagos e células derivadas circunscrevendo-os, limitando sua agressividade. Esses aglomerados de macrófagos ao redor do persistente agressor recebem o nome de granulomas, um sinônimo de inflamação crônica. Apesar da sonoridade parecida, os termos granuloma e tecido de granulação representam fenômenos distintos e não devem ser utilizados como sinônimos nas análises microscópicas, pois isso induz a interpretações equivocadas.


The conceptual confusion and the mistaken microscopical diagnosis are often when using the terms granulation tissue and granuloma. When the wounded areas are free of the aggressor agent, the granulation tissue, an almost embryonic tissue, is formed on the area to give place to a new conjunctive tissue, reestablishing the normality and/or filling the spaces. On the other hand, the aggressor persistence promotes the inflammation continuation with macrophages and derived cells, limiting its aggressiveness. These macrophages agglomerated around thepersistent aggressor receive the name of granulomas, synonym of chronicle inflammation. Despite of the similar sonority, the terms granuloma and granulation tissue represent different phenomena and must not be used as synonyms in the microscopical analyses because this would lead to mistaken interpretations.

ABSTRACT

The histopathological description of intralobular hepatic granulomas in animals with a defined clinical status (asymptomatic, oligosymptomatic and symptomatic animals) was reported. Seventy-one mongrel dogs naturally infected with Leishmania chagasi were obtained from two Brazilian endemic areas: João Pessoa, PB and Belo Horizonte, MG. The hepatic parasite load was determined and compared to granuloma formation. Liver fragments from all infected animals showed remarkable leishmaniotic granulomatous inflammatory reaction. Granulomas with variable size were constituted by macrophages (parasitized or not with amastigotes of L. chagasi), some epithelioid cells, small numbers of lymphocytes, plasma cells, and rare neutrophils. Asymptomatic dogs had higher numbers of granulomas than oligosymptomatic and symptomatic animals from both geographical regions. However, the average diametric size of granulomas was very heterogeneous in all groups, independently of the geographic region (P>0.05). Parasite tissue load did not show any difference among liver fragments of all animals, especially when considering the defined clinical status and/or their geographic origin


Descreve-se a formação de granulomas hepáticos na leishmaniose canina em animais com classificação clínica definida - assintomáticos, oligossintomáticos e sintomáticos. Setenta e um animais, sem raça definida e naturalmente infectados com Leishmania chagasi, foram obtidos de duas regiões endêmicas brasileiras: João Pessoa, PB e Belo Horizonte, MG. A carga parasitária tecidual foi determinada mediante emprego do Leishmania Donovani Units (LDU) e comparada com a formação de granulomas hepáticos. Fragmentos de fígado de todos os animais infectados mostraram reação granulomatosa notadamente leishmaniótica. Granulomas de variáveis tamanhos eram constituídos por macrófagos, parasitados ou não com formas amastigotas de L. chagasi, algumas células epitelióides, pequeno número de linfócitos e plasmócitos, e raros neutrófilos. Cães assintomáticos apresentaram maior número de granulomas do que os animais oligossintomáticos e sintomáticos, em ambas as regiões geográficas. As médias dos diâmetros foram heterogêneas em todos os grupos, independente da região geográfica (P>0,05). Quanto ao parasitismo (LDU), não houve diferença entre as amostras de fígado, especialmente quando se consideraram a classificação clínica e a região geográfica

ABSTRACT

Twenty six cases of chronic granulomatous mastitis are reported in a 5 year period and the slides are reviewed. They are sub-classified into Chronic lobular mastitis (CLM), Plasma cell mastitis and subareolar granuloma. There are 10 cases each of CLM and plasma cell mastitis and one of subareolar granuloma. All the three conditions are associated with duct ectasia. Fat necrosis and infective granulomas were 2 each and one of foreign body granuloma. These lesions can be easily differentiated by histology. While most of the CLM occurred in younger age group, plasma cell mastitis is seen in older women. Histologically, there is a florid inflammatory cell reaction of the stroma with dilatation and destruction of some ducts, with microabscess formation. In plasma cell mastitis, the lesion is more chronic with predominance of plasma cells and involutionary changes of the ducts are seen.
