Cytomegalovirus infection, or cytomegaly, is a chronic anthropo nosis disease of viral etiology, characterized by a variety of forms of the pathological process from latent infection to a clinically expressed generalized disease.
Cytomegalovirus hepatitis is an independent form of CMV infection, in which liver damage occurs in isolation if cytomegalovirus has tropism not to the epithelium of the bile ducts, but directly to the hepatocytes.
Cystic lesions occur more often in small salivary glands, less often in the parotid and submandibular salivary glands. A provoking factor may be trauma to the gland duct, leading to its atresia and accumulation of contents. The accumulation, increasing, presses on the walls of the cavity, increases the cavity of the cyst of the salivary glands.
Cysts of the parotid and submandibular glands are rare. Usually occur as a result of disintegration disorders, but may be a consequence of trauma. They have a thin fibrous membrane connected to the gland tissue.
Most of the cysts of the larynx are localized outside of its cavity on the epiglottis or on the root of the tongue, but may occur in the ventricles of the larynx and on the scaly belts.
The clinical picture of hydrocyst of any origin is quite similar, there are only histological differences. Clinically, they are small, with a bluish shade and a shiny surface, cystic elements that appear mainly on the face. Cysts of the apocrine type, mostly solitary, rarely - plural.
Cystocele, urethrocele and rectocele - protrusion of the bladder, urethra and rectum respectively into the vaginal canal. Symptoms of this pathology include urinary incontinence and a feeling of pressure. The diagnosis is based on clinical data.
Cystitis is the inflammatory process of the inner membrane of the bladder. In most cases, it is the infection that causes cystitis. Treatment of the disease is prescribed depending on the causes that provoked the appearance of the disease.
The characteristic signs of acute cystitis and exacerbation of chronic are frequent (pollakiuria) painful urination, pain in the bladder, urinary incontinence is possible, and in children of the first months of life - urinary retention.
Soreness in the lower abdomen, increased urge to urinate, discoloration of the urinary fluid - such symptoms may occur with the onset of menstruation, and during inflammation of the bladder.
Cystinuria is a hereditary defect of the renal tubules, in which the resorption of the amino acid of cystine is disturbed, its excretion in the urine is increased, cystine stones are formed in the urinary ways. Symptoms include the development of renal colic in connection with stone formation and, probably, infection of the urinary system or manifestations of renal failure. The diagnosis is based on the definition of excretion of cystine with urine. Treatment includes an increase in the daily volume of the fluid being drunk and urine alkalinization.
Cysticercosis (Latin cysticercosis) is a chronic biogelmintosis caused by the larval stage of the pork chain-cysticerca (Finns). The causative agent of cysticercosis, Cysticercus cellulosae (Taenia solium larval stage) is a 5-15 mm diameter vesicle containing an inverted scolex.
Cystic pneumatosis of the intestine is very rare. According to A. A. Rusanov, by 1960, only 250 similar observations of the small intestine pneumatosis have been described in the literature, which occurs most often.
Cystic macular edema is the result of fluid accumulation in the outer plexiform and inner nuclear layers of the retina in the center near the foveola with the formation of fluid-filled racemose formations.
The term "cystic kidney disease" unites a group of renal diseases of different etiology, the defining feature of which is the presence of cysts in the kidneys.
Cystic fibrosis (pancreofibrosis, pancreatic congenital steatorrhea, etc.) is a hereditary disease characterized by a cystic change in the pancreas, glands of the intestine, respiratory tracts, large salivary glands, etc. Due to the secretion of a very viscous secretion corresponding to the glands. It is inherited by autosomal recessive type.
Cystic fibrosis is a hereditary disease that affects the exocrine glands, mainly the gastrointestinal tract and the respiratory system. As a result, COPD, deficiency of the exocrine part of the pancreas and an abnormally high content of electrolytes in the sweat develop. The diagnosis is based on a swallowing test or identification of 2 mutations causing cystic fibrosis in patients with characteristic symptoms.
Cystic fibrosis is a genetic autosomal recessive monogenic disease characterized by impaired secretion of the exocrine glands of vital organs with the defeat primarily of the respiratory and digestive systems, severe course and unfavorable prognosis.
Cystic epithelioma (syn: proliferating trichylemal cyst, pilar tumor) is a fairly rare tumor, mainly occurring in individuals older than 40 years, although the age range is quite wide - from 26 to 87 years.
