KROK 1 2007 – Question 179 · KROK (Medicine) · Pathomorphology
Analysis of a punction biopsy material of liver revealed hepatocyte dystrophy with necroses as well as sclerosis with disorder of beam and lobulous structure, with formation of pseudolobules and regenerative nodes. What is the most probable diagnosis:
- A. Chronic hepatitis
- B. Liver cirrhosis
- C. Chronic hepatosis
- D. Progressive massive liver necrosis
- E. Acute hepatitis
Hint
Combine ongoing hepatocyte injury, fibrosis and rebuilding of the architecture into pseudolobules; ask which end-stage liver process remodels the lobular structure this way.
The answer, the explanation and a note on every option are available once you log in. The account is free: topic tests, a mock exam, mistake review and statistics.
