ROBBINS BASIC PATHOLOGY
EXAMINATION SET 2026 SOLVED
QUESTIONS GRADED A+
● This type of necrosis is encountered most often in foci of tuberculosis
infection and has a friable yellow-white appearance. Answer: Caseous
necrosis
● Shrinkage in the size of the cell by the loss of cell substance is known
as _________. Answer: Atrophy
● What is the correct sequence in the mechanism of leukocyte migration
through blood vessels? Answer: Rolling, Integrin activation by
chemokines, Adhesion, Migration
● Macrophages are a type of cell likely to be involved in response to
each of the following injuries except:
A. Pulmonary fibrosis
B. Acute respiratory distress syndrome
C. Atherosclerosis
D. Rheumatoid arthritis Answer: Acute respiratory distress syndrome
, ● In ___________, there is an outpouring of a watery, relatively protein-
poor fluid that derives either from the plasma or from the secretions of
mesothelial cells lining the peritoneal, pleural and pericardial cavities.
A. Fibrinous inflammation
B. Suppurative inflammation
C. Serous inflammation
D. Chronic inflammation Answer: Serous inflammation
● Large (1 to 2 cm) subcutaneous hematomas also known as bruises.
Answer: Ecchymosis
● An uncommon, grave complication of labor and the immediate
postpartum period; this type of embolism releases fluid into the maternal
circulation via tears in the placental membrane and/or uterine vein
rupture. Answer: Amniotic fluid embolism
● _________ shock results from low cardiac output due to loss of blood
or plasma volume. Answer: hypovolemic
● During this stage of shock, reflex compensatory mechanisms are
activated and vital organ perfusion is maintained.
A. Nonprogressive
B. Progressive
C. Irreversible
