RHEUMATISM An immunologically mediated disease,
related to an episode of group A (β-hemolytic) streptococcal pharyngitis. Multisystem inflammatory disease, heart and joints are favored sites. Rheumatic fever, acute rheumatic carditis Repetitive attacks lead to chronic valvular deformities The pathologic feature is Aschoff bodies. 5

(1) alteration and exudation
ESSENTIAL MORPHOLOGY (1) alteration and exudation Serous, fibrinous exudate, and leukocytes infiltration, mucoid degeneration and fibrinoid necrosis. Outcomes: Complete resolution Fibrosis Granulomas 7

(2) Proliferation or granulomas Hallmark: Aschoff bodies
Fibrinoid necrosis, Anitschkow cells Aschoff giant cells Lymphocytes Plasma cells 8

Aschoff body During acute RF, focal inflammatory lesions are found in various tissues. They are most distinctive within the heart, where they are called Aschoff bodies. They consist of foci of swollen eosinophilic collagen surrounded by lymphocytes (primarily T cells), occasional plasma cells, and plump macrophages called Anitschkow cells (pathognomonic for RF). These distinctive cells have abundant cytoplasm and central round-to-ovoid nuclei in which the chromatin is disposed in a central, slender, wavy ribbon (hence the designation “caterpillar cells”).形态 Some of the larger macrophages become multinucleated to form Aschoff giant cells. 巨细胞

ABE/SBE区别 Acute endocarditis describes a destructive, tumultuous infection, frequently of a previously normal heart valve, with a highly virulent organism, that leads to death within days to weeks of more than 50% of patients despite antibiotics and surgery. In contrast, organisms of low virulence can cause infection in a previously abnormal heart, particularly on deformed valves. In such cases, the disease may appear insidiously and, even untreated, pursue a protracted course of weeks to months (subacute endocarditis). Most patients with subacute IE recover after appropriate antibiotic therapy.
37
Morphology. In both the subacute and acute forms of the disease, friable, bulky, and potentially destructive vegetations containing fibrin, inflammatory cells, and bacteria or other organisms are present on the heart valves. Osler小结-皮下小动脉炎 Systemic emboli may occur at any time because of the friable nature of the vegetations, and they may cause infarcts in the brain, kidneys, myocardium, and other tissues. Because the embolic fragments contain large numbers of virulent organisms, abscesses often develop at the sites of such infarcts (septic infarcts).
38
Splinter hemorrhages, Janeway lesions (palms, soles), Osler’s “nodes” (raised), Roth’s spots (eye).
Do you think that for every skin lesion you see there may be 10 visceral lesions which you do NOT see? Ans: Yes, I believe so! 38
39
Chronic valvular vitium of the heart 心瓣膜病
Vavular stenosis Valvular insufficiency
40
Stenosis is the failure of a valve to open completely, thereby impeding forward flow.
Insufficiency, in contrast, results from failure of a valve to close completely, thereby allowing reversed flow.
41
Aortic stenosis: calcification of anatomically normal and congenitally bicuspid aortic valves.
Aortic insufficiency: dilation of the ascending aorta, related to hypertension and aging. Mitral stenosis: rheumatic heart disease. Mitral insufficiency: myxomatous degeneration (mitral valve prolapse).
42
AS MS 70% of all VHD Rheumatic Heart Disease
Calcification of a deformed valve “Senile” calcific AS Rheum, Heart Dis. MS Rheumatic Heart Disease If you have 4 valves and 2 possibilities of each valve (stenosis or regurgitation), then you have 8 possibilities, but these 2/8 cover 70% of all. So that mean, practically, clinically, R>L and Stenosis>Regurgitation 42
