| 영문 | coagulation necrosis | 한글 | 응고괴사 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 설명 | 세포의 죽음을 나타내는 형태학적 변화로서 괴사부위가 응고한 상태로 있는 것. 괴사세포는 호산성 덩어리로 보이며 적어도 수일간 세포의 기본 윤곽이 보존되기 때문에 조직구조를 식별할 수 있다. 대표적으로 허혈괴사를 들 수 있다. 경색과 허혈에 의한 저산소증시 심장근이나 콩팥에서 관찰되거나 전기 및 수은중독시 콩팥의 요세관에서 관찰되는 것으로 단백의 변성 후 남아있기 때문이다. 세포의 윤곽이 남아 있어 원래 조직의 구조를 형태학적으로 인식할 수 있는 것이 특징이다. |

| 영문 | caseation necrosis | 한글 | 치즈괴사, 건락괴사 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 설명 | 조직이 치즈와 같이 건조하고, 형태가 없는 덩어리로 변화하는 것으로 결핵감염 병터에서 볼 수 있는 독특한 괴사의 하나이다. |

| 영문 | solid tumor | 한글 | 고형종양 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 설명 | 세포로 꽉 찬 종양을 말함. 백혈병 등의 혈액암과 같이 형태를 취하지 않고 액체인 상태의 암과 대조되는 용어로서 단단한 덩어리로 구성된 악성종양이다. 대부분의 종양이 이에 해당한다. 특히 표피조직에서 기원한 종양을 말한다. |

| 영문 | ulcerating tumor | 한글 | 궤양성 종양 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 설명 | 종양의 표면에 궤양이 발생하는 것. 대개, 매우 빨리 자라는 종양에서 혈류 공급이 종양세포의 자라는 속도를 감당하지 못해 종양중심부 조직이 괴사에 빠져 궤양을 형성하는 경우가 많다. 육안으로 보면 빨갛고, 열이나며, 지저분해 보인다. |

| 영문 | brain tumor | 한글 | 뇌종양 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 설명 | 뇌종양이란 뇌와 뇌조직에서 생긴 종양을 지칭하는 말이다. 그러나 대개 넓은 의미로 사용할 경우에는 머리뼈속의 공간인 두개강속에 생기는 모든 종양을 이르는 말로 사용된다. 뇌종양은 한정된 공간인 두개강에서 발생하므로 종양이 그다지 크지 않아도 정상적인 조직을 압박하게 되고, 두개강내의 압력을 높인다. 이런 특징에 의해서 뇌종양의 증상은 다른 종양과 달리, 종양 그 자체의 증상보다도 두개내압상승과 정상조직의 압박에 의한 증상이 많다. 두개내압(뇌압)의 상승에 의한 증상으로는 두통, 구토등이 있으며, 지속적인 뇌압상승에 의해서 유두부종(papilledema)이 관찰되기도 한다. 그리고 정상적인 뇌조직의 압박과 종양이 생긴 부위의 기능의 결합에 뇌의 그 부분에 해당하는 기능의 상실을 보게된다. |

pressure necrosis
| receptors, insulin-like-growth factor I | Specific proteins on or in cells to which insulin-like growth factor I (somatomedin c) binds and thereby modifies the function of the cells. These receptors contain transmembrane and cytosolic domains, bind igf-I preferentially, and have high-affinity sites for igf-II. The alpha-subunit has a mw of 130 kD and the beta subunit possesses tyrosine kinase activity. (12 Dec 1998) |
|---|---|
| receptors, insulin-like-growth-factor II | Specific proteins on or in cells to which insulin-like growth factor II and mannose-6-phosphate bind and thereby modify the function of the cells. These receptors have a mw of 250 kD and possess no tyrosine kinase activity. (12 Dec 1998) |
| receptors, macrophage colony-stimulating factor | Glycoproteins of mw 165 kD which are encoded by the c-fms proto-oncogene. The binding of csf-1 to its receptors activates an intrinsic tyrosine kinase activity resulting in autophosphorylation of the receptors on tyrosine, rapid receptor down-regulation, and phosphorylation of as yet unidentified physiologic substrates that initiate a mitogenic response. (12 Dec 1998) |
| receptors, nerve growth factor | Cell surface receptors that bind nerve growth factor (ngf) and trigger intracellular changes influencing the behaviour of cells. Nerve growth factor receptors mediate the effects of nerve growth factor on the survival and growth of neurons. (12 Dec 1998) |
| receptors, platelet-derived growth factor | Specific molecular sites or structures on cell membranes that react with platelet-derived growth factor, its analogs, or antagonists, to elicit or to inhibit the specific response of the cell to this factor. Pdgf binds with different affinities and specificities to two structurally related receptors, the alpha-receptor and the beta-receptor. Both of these receptors are transmembrane proteins with an intracellular, ligand-stimulatable protein kinase domain. (12 Dec 1998) |
| receptors, transforming growth factor beta | Cell-surface proteins that bind transforming growth factor beta and trigger changes influencing the behaviour of cells. Two types of transforming growth factor receptors have been recognised. They differ in affinity for different members of the transforming growth factor beta family and in cellular mechanisms of action. Transforming growth factor alpha binds to the same receptors as epidermal growth factor (see receptors, epidermal growth factor-urogastrone). (12 Dec 1998) |
| acute tubular necrosis | <nephrology> A kidney disorder that results in damage to the renal tubule cells leading to acute renal failure. Acute tubular necrosis can result from any condition which deprives the kidney of oxygen (ischaemia). Acute tubular necrosis may occur as a complication of shock, trauma or sepsis. Conditions such as diabetes or liver disease can predispose people to the development of acute tubular necrosis. Certain medications (for example aminoglycosides, amphotericin B, cyclosporine) are known to cause acute tubular necrosis as a toxic side effect. Radiopaque contrast dyes, used in some radiologic procedures, may also result in acute tubular necrosis as a rare complication from contrast dye use. Acronym: ATN (13 Nov 1997) |
| aseptic necrosis | <orthopaedics, pathology> Condition in which poor blood supply to an area of bone leads to bone death. Also called avascular necrosis and osteonecrosis. (12 Dec 1998) |
| avascular necrosis | <radiology> Aetiology (PLASTIC RAGS): P pancreatitis, L lupus, A alcohol, S steroids, T trauma, I idiopathic, infection, C caisson disease, collagen vascular disease, R radiation, rheumatoid arthritis, A amyloid, G Gaucher disease, S sickle cell disease findings: sclerosis, crescent sign, collapse (e.g., of femoral head) see also: staging (12 Dec 1998) |
| avascular necrosis staging | <radiology> Stage CT/X-ray bone scan I - cold/hot spot II sclerotic focus with osteopenic ring III crescent sign (subchondral lucency) IV articular collapse flattening of femoral head sensitivity 86% 78% specificity 79% 75% see also: avascular necrosis (AVN) (12 Dec 1998) |
| bridging hepatic necrosis | Area of liver necrosis which bridges adjacent portal areas and central veins; subsequent post-necrotic collapse and fibrosis is likely to result in cirrhosis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| papillary necrosis | <radiology> Mnemonic: POST CARD, P pyelonephritis, O obstruction, S sickle cell disease, T TB, C cirrhosis (EtOH), A analgesics (phenacetin and aspirin), R renal vein thrombosis, D diabetes (12 Dec 1998) |
| caseous necrosis | Caseation necrosis, necrosis characteristic of certain inflammations (e.g., tuberculosis, histoplasmosis), which represents necrosis with loss of separate structures of the various cellular and histologic elements; affected tissue manifests the friable, crumbly consistency and dull, opaque quality observed in cheese. Synonym: caseous degeneration. (05 Mar 2000) |
| globus pallidus necrosis | <radiology> Carbon monoxide poisoning, barbiturate intoxication, cyanide poisoning, hydrogen sulfide poisoning, hypoglycaemia, hypoxia, hypotension, Leigh disease, Wilson disease CT: bilateral, symmetric low density in globus pallidus Cf: methanol intoxication leading to putamenal haemorrhagic necrosis (changes seen more laterally) (12 Dec 1998) |
| renal papillary necrosis | <nephrology> Necrosis of renal papillae, occurring in acute pyelonephritis, especially in diabetics, or in analgesic nephropathy; renal failure may result. Synonym: necrotizing papillitis. (05 Mar 2000) |
