Granulomatous Granulomatous inflammationinflammation Granulomatous inflammation is a Granulomatous inflammation is a
distinctive morphologic pattern of distinctive morphologic pattern of inflammatory reaction encountered in inflammatory reaction encountered in relatively few diseases. Tuberculosis relatively few diseases. Tuberculosis is the archetype of the granulomatous is the archetype of the granulomatous diseases, but also included are diseases, but also included are syphilis, sarcoidosis, cat-scratch syphilis, sarcoidosis, cat-scratch fever, leprosy, brucellosis.fever, leprosy, brucellosis.
GranulomaGranuloma
A granuloma consists of a microscopic A granuloma consists of a microscopic aggregation of plump fibroblasts or aggregation of plump fibroblasts or histiocytes that have been transformed into histiocytes that have been transformed into epithelial-like cells, designated there for epithelial-like cells, designated there for epithelioid cells, surrounded by a collar of epithelioid cells, surrounded by a collar of mononuclear leukocytes, principally mononuclear leukocytes, principally lymphocytes and Occasionally plasma cells. lymphocytes and Occasionally plasma cells. Frequently, but not invariably, large giant Frequently, but not invariably, large giant cells are found in the periphery or sometimes cells are found in the periphery or sometimes in the center of granulomas. These giant cells in the center of granulomas. These giant cells may achieve diameters of 40 to 50 microns.may achieve diameters of 40 to 50 microns.
GranulomaGranuloma Certain variation in the granulomatous pattern is Certain variation in the granulomatous pattern is
encountered among the reactions of various encountered among the reactions of various etiologies. The granuloma of tuberculosis classically etiologies. The granuloma of tuberculosis classically has central caseous necrosis. The fusion of many has central caseous necrosis. The fusion of many caseating granulomas may give rise to large caseating granulomas may give rise to large macroscopic lesions of caseous necrosis.macroscopic lesions of caseous necrosis.

Two types of giant cells are encountered. The Pirogov-Two types of giant cells are encountered. The Pirogov-Langhans type is said to be characteristic of tuberculosis, Langhans type is said to be characteristic of tuberculosis, but in reality it may be found in some of granulomatous but in reality it may be found in some of granulomatous reactions. The nuclei in this form tend to be arranged about reactions. The nuclei in this form tend to be arranged about the periphery of the cell, sometimes encircling the the periphery of the cell, sometimes encircling the circumference, and at other times producing horse shoe circumference, and at other times producing horse shoe patterns. The foreign body type giant cell differs in that the patterns. The foreign body type giant cell differs in that the numerous nuclei are scattered throughout the cytoplasm in numerous nuclei are scattered throughout the cytoplasm in no distinctive pattern.no distinctive pattern.

At high magnification, the granuloma demonstrates that the epithelioid macrophages are elongated with long, pale nuclei and pink cytoplasm. The macrophages organize into committees called giant cells. The typical giant cell for infectious granulomas is called a Langhans giant cell and has the nuclei lined up along one edge of the cell. The process of granulomatous inflammation takes place over months to years.
There is a small tan-yellow subpleural granuloma in the mid-lung field on the right. In the hilum is a small yellow tan granuloma in a hilar lymph node next to a bronchus. This is the "Ghon complex" that is the characteristic gross appearance with primary tuberculosis. In most persons, the granulomatous disease will not progress. Over time, the granulomas decrease in size and can calcify, leaving a focal calcified spot on a chest radiograph that suggests remote granulomatous disease.

In contrast, sarcoidosis almost never produces central necrosis, and so the sarcoid granuloma is often called a "hard tubercule", while the tuberculosis granuloma is often referred to as a "soft tubercule".Epithelioid cells (ЭК), lymphocytes (Л), giant cells (ГК), asteroid bodies (АТ).

A fungus ball composed of blue-staining hyphal elements of Aspergillus is seen here in a bronchus. Fungus balls may also form when fungi colonize cavitary lesions of tuberculosis.
Branching, septate hyphae are close-packed here and radiating outward in this aspergilloma.
The hyphae of Aspergillus are seen more clearly here. Aspergillus has a propensity to invade into blood vessels.
