ABDOMINAL AORTIC ANEURYSM PICTURE

Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm Picture

An aortic aneurysm is a general
term for any swelling (dilatation or aneurysm) of the aorta, usually
representing an underlying weakness in the wall of the aorta at that
location. While the stretched vessel may occasionally cause discomfort,
it is the risk of rupture causing severe pain, massive internal
hemorrhage and, without prompt treatment, resulting in a quick death. In
addition the aneurysm may split (Aortic dissection) which may block
vessels that branch off from the aorta or release blood clots (emboli)
causing blockage to blood-flow elsewhere.

materials to the other parts of the body.

ACUTE LYMPHOBLASTIC LEUKEMIA

Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia Picture

Acute lymphoblastic leukemia, or ALL, is the most common form of childhood leukemia, a

blood cells. This is a type of leukemia that starts from white blood
cells in the bone marrow, the soft inner part of bones. It develops from cells
called lymphocytes, a type of white blood cell central to the immune system, or
from lymphoblasts, an immature type of lymphocyte. The younger the patient is at
diagnosis the better the chances of survival.

ACHONDROPLASIA PICTURE AND DEFINITION

Achondroplasia Picture

Achondroplasia is an inherited disorder of bone growth. It is
one of the group of disorders that are collectively called chondrodystrophies or

to large-sized head, shortened arms and legs (especially the upper arm and thigh), a
normal-sized trunk, and waddling gait. Achondroplasia is the most common type of dwarfism.



Achondroplasia is inherited as an autosomal dominant trait. However, the majority of
cases, approximately 80%, appear as spontaneous mutations. If one parent has
achondroplasia, the infant has a 50% chance of inheriting the disorder.
If both parents have the condition, the infant's chances of being
affected increase to 75%

effects people between the ages of 12 and 21. Therefore, it is important
to look for an underlying cause of acne that occurs for the first time

ALLERGIC PURPURA PICTURE AND INFORMTATION

Allergic purpura Picture

Allergic purpura is an allergic disorder. The joints (usually knees, ankles, hips,
wrists, and elbows), the skin of the legs, thighs, and abdomen, the gastrointestinal
tract, and the kidneys are involved. Allergic purpura can affect both sexes, all ages, but
is more common in boys (2 to 8 years).

The picture above shows how allergic purpura can appear on
the skin.

Purpura is a bleeding disorder that occurs when capillaries rupture, allowing
small amounts of blood to accumulate in the surrounding tissues. In AP, this occurs
because the capillaries are blocked by protein complexes formed during an abnormal immune
reaction. The skin is the most obvious site of reaction, but the joints, gastrointestinal
tract, and kidneys are also often affected.

back.

hair on the head (alopecia totalis), and even the loss of hair on the head (alopecia
totalis), and even the loss of all hair on the body (alopecia universalis).

ALPHA-1 ANTITRYPSIN DEFICIENCY PICTURE AND INFORMATION

Alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency

Alpha-1 Antitrypsin deficiency is an inherited disorder that may cause lung or liver
disease. Normally, the protein alpha-1 antitrysin, is released into the bloodstream and
travels to the lung where it protects the lungs from the destructive actions of common
illnesses and exposures, particularly tobacco smoke. People with a deficiency of this
protective protein often suffer from progressive lung damage known as emphysema. Unlike
the common form of emphysema seen in otherwise healthy individuals who have smoked for
many years, this alpha antitrypsin deficiency form of emphysema may occur at an unusually
young age

antitrypsin deficiency

-

Alveoli Picture

The alveoli are the final branching of the respiratory
tree and act as the primary gas exchange units of the lung. The gas-blood
barrier between the alveolar space and the pulmonary capillaries is
extremely thin, allowing for rapid gas exchange. To reach the blood, oxygen
must diffuse through the alveolar epithelium, a thin interstitial space, and
the capillary endothelium; CO2 follows the reverse course to reach the
alveoli

or generalized or systemic.

Anal Warts Picture

Anal warts (also called condyloma acuminata) are
a relatively common and bothersome condition that affects the area around the anus. They
may also affect the skin of the genital area. They first appear as tiny blemishes, perhaps
as small as the head of a pin, and may grow larger than the size of a pea. Usually, they
do not cause pain or discomfort to afflicted individuals. As a result, patients may be
unaware that the warts are present.

the main causes of anal cancer is a sexually transmitted disease called HPV and
also anal sex.

ANAL FISTULAS PICTURE

Anal Fistulas Picture

An anal fistula is an abnormal connection between the
epithelialised surface of the anal canal and (usually) the perianal
skin.



Anal fistulae originate from the anal glands, which are located between
the two layers of the anal sphincters and which drain into the anal
canal. If the outlet of these glands becomes blocked, an abscess can
form which can eventually point to the skin surface. The tract formed by
this process is the fistula.

Ankylosing Spondylitis Picture

Ankylosing spondylitis
(AS) is a chronic inflammatory form of arthritis that affects the spinal
joints. The hallmark feature of AS is the involvement of the joints at the
base of the spine where the spine joins the pelvis - the sacroiliac
joints.

The disease course is highly variable, and while some
individuals have episodes of transient back pain only, others have more chronic severe
back pain that leads to differing degrees of spinal stiffness over time. In almost all
cases the disease is characterized by acute painful episodes and remissions (periods where
the problem settles).

when anthrax spores are used as a bioterrorist weapon.
