• What are pores of Kohn? • Perforations in wall of alveoli, permit passage
of bacteria and exudate between adjacent alveoli
Early organization of intra-alveolar exudate, seen in areas to be streaming through the pores of Kohn (arrow).

True or false?
• In atelectasis caused by:– Resorption – there is a decreased in LV
mediastinum shift to atelectactic lung – Compression – mediastinum shifts towards the
atelectactic lung – Contraction – caused by localised or generalized
infection • Atelectasis is irreversible

Qs on pulmonary oedema
• Where in the lung does fluid accumulate first?– Basal regions of lower lobes due to hydrostatic
pressure is greater there• What is brown induration?– In long-standing cases of pulmonary congestion,
such as those seen in mitral stenosis, hemosiderin-laden macrophages are abundant, and fibrosis and thickening of the alveolar walls cause the soggy lungs to become firm and brown.

![Page 9: What are pores of Kohn?](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062323/568161f7550346895dd223e1/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)

At the end of the consultation you send Mavis off for a Chest X-Ray. She returns the following morning. The report describes a sub-segmental area of atelectasis in the right upper lobe.

• Question 5. (6 marks) • In Question 4, you were asked to identify
benefits for Mavis from smoking cessation, even at this stage. As a long-term smoker, and particularly in view of her unwillingness to cease following treatment for lung cancer, Mavis would be described by some people as suffering from a self-induced disease.

T or F
• ALI/ARDS is a diagnosis of exclusion • True: ALI nor ARDS should be diagnosed until
other causes of acute bilateral infiltrates, severe hypoxemia, and respiratory distress have been excluded

What disease is this disease course?
During the early (or exudative) phase, the lesion is characterized by high permeability pulmonary edema followed by the formation of hyaline membranes. After seven to ten days, a proliferative phase may develop, with marked interstitial inflammation, fibrosis, and disordered healing.
