NOMENKLATUR  ISTILAH MEDIS
Word Parts Akar kata (Word roots)   or betuk kombinasi (combining forms) BASIC MEANING  of the term. Usually indicate body part involved.  Cardi = heart Awalan (Prefixes)  usually indicate location, time, number or status. Comes at  BEGINING  of word. Pericardium = around the heart Suffixes  usually indicate the procedure, condition, disorder, or disease. Comes at  END  of word. Cardiomyopathy = disease of heart muscle
Word Parts Word root is the foundation of the word It cannot stand alone.  A suffix must be added. Word roots in their combining form have a /vowel  Cardi/o Neur/o Gastr/o A combining vowel may be needed to make the medical term easier to pronounce  The letter O is the most commonly used combining vowel.
Word Roots Indicating Color   Cyanosis Cyan/o ( blue color of skin caused by lack of O2 ) + osis (condition) Erythrocytes erythr/o (red) + cytes (cells) Poliomyelitis  Polio (gray) + myel (spinal cord) + itis (inflammation) Melano/o - black
Rules for Using Combining Vowels A combining vowel, if used, is added to the end of the word root. A combining vowel is  not  used if the suffix begins with a  vowel . Neur/ o  + itis = neuritis. Neur (nerve) = itis (inflammation).
A combining vowel  is used  when  the suffix begins with a  consonant Neur/ o  = plasty = neur o plasty Neur/ o  = nerve  Plasty = surgical repair A combining vowel is always used when 2 or more word roots are joined. Gastr/ o  (stomach) + enter/ o  (small intestine). = Gastr o enteritis. A prefix does not require a combining vowel.
Combining Form   Aden/o = gland Cardi/o = heart Dermat/o = skin Enter/o = small intestines gastr/o = stomach Hemat/o = blood Nephr/o = kidney Neur/o = nerve Pulmon/o = lungs
Prefixes A prefix is added at the beginning to change the meaning of the term. They usually indicate location, time or number. Natal means pertaining to(al) + birth (nat). Prenatal means time & events before birth. Perinatal means time and events just before, during, & after birth. Postnatal means time & event after birth. Number prefixes Bi = 2 ,  Di = 2, Tri = 3,  Hemi = half,  Mono = 1, Uni = 1 Multi = many,  Nulli = none Poly = many,  Quad = 4 Semi = partial or half  
Suffixes   Suffix –  added to end of word. Usually indicates procedure, condition, disorder, or disease. Tonsill/o means tonsils. A suffix completes the word and tells what is happening to the tonsils. Tonsillitis. tonsill (tonsil) + itis (inflammation). Tonsillectomy (tonsil) +(surgical removal ).
Suffixes Some suffixes change the word root into an  adjective . Cardi ac   cardi/o (heart) + ac  (pertaining to). Some suffixes change the word root into a noun. Crani um  crani (skull) + um  (noun ending).
Suffixes Meaning Abnormal Condition -osis means an abnormal  condition or disease Gastrosis means any disease of  the stomach
-algia means pain : Gastralgia -dynia means pain : Gastrodynia -itis means inflammation : Gastritis -malacia means abnormal softening : Arteriomalacia Megaly means enlargement : Hepatomegaly Necrosis means tissue death Arterionecrosis  Sclerosis means abnormal hardening Arteriosclerosis Stenosis means abnormal narrowing Suffixes Related to Pathology
Suffixes Related to Procedures   - centesis – surgical puncture to remove fluid Abdominocentisis -ectomy – surgical removal Appendectomy -graphy –means the process of recording a picture or record Arteriography -gram - a record or picture arteriogram
The Double RRs   - rrhage and –rrhagia mean abnormal excessive fluid discharge or bleeding. Hemorrhage -rrhea – abnormal flow or discharge Diarrhea -rrhexis – rupture myorrexis
Look-alike Sound-alike Terms and Word Parts   Arteri/o = artery Ather/0 = plaque or fatty substance Arthr/o = joint Ileum = part of small intestine Ilium = part of the hip bone Mucous – adjective that describes specialized mucous membranes that line the body cavities. Mucus – a noun and the name of the substance secreted by the mucous membranes
Lungs from a horse that died after a two-day illness.
Horse lungs morphologic diagnosis (mdx) : Severe acute locally extensive pneumonia Alternatively, if you (logically) suspect that the dark areas are bloody/hemorrhagic… Mdx:  Severe acute locally extensive hemorrhagic pneumonia If you know that the etiology was  Streptococcus zooepidemicus , the etiologic diagnosis is  Streptococcal pneumonia
A Holstein heifer with yellowish, easily torn, slightly rubbery material on peritoneal surfaces
Yellowish, easily torn, slightly rubbery material on peritoneal surfaces Mdx:  ___________________________________ . Comment:  It’s so widespread that it’s almost diffuse, which would also be ok as an adjective. Comment:  Fibrinous lesions are often acute. Microsopically there is often suppuration with the fibrin, too.  If you could grossly see pus along with the sheets of fibrin, what would the mdx be? * Severe acute multifocal/diffuse fibrinous peritonitis *Severe acute multifocal/diffuse fibrinosuppurative peritonitis … or, *Severe acute multifocal/diffuse fibrinopurulent peritonitis … or, *Severe acute multifocal/diffuse fibrinous and suppurative/purulent peritonitis
Lungs from a dog which started coughing 2-3 weeks ago
Lungs from a dog which started coughing 2-3 weeks ago This is a case of severe pulmonary blastomycosis ( Blastomyces dermatitidis). The etiologic diagnosis is:  Blastomyces pneumonia, or fungal pneumonia Blastomyces  induces numerous neutrophils and macrophages to chemotax into alveolar spaces.  An exudate consisting primarily of neutrophils is referred to as:  Suppurative or purulent An exudate consisting primarily of macrophages is referred to as:  Granulomatous A prefix referring to pus is:  Pyo- An exudate consisting of both neutrophils and macrophages is called:  Pyogranulomatous, or Suppurative and Granulomatous, or Purulent and Granulomatous
Lungs from a dog which started coughing 2-3 weeks ago Mdx:  Severe chronic* diffuse** pyogranulomatous pneumonia * Chronic-Active is also ok. ** It consists of thousands of small foci (“multifocal”) of pyogranulomatous inflammation which are packed very closely together and which are distributed in every lung lobe, so call it diffuse.
