HUMAN PHENOTYPE - ANNOTATIONS

The Human Phenotype Ontology (HPO) is downloaded weekly from http://compbio.charite.de/hudson/job/hpo/lastStableBuild/artifact/ontology/release/hp.obo. The file downloaded is considered the "last stable build" available for the ontology. For more about the HPO, view their website at http://www.human-phenotype-ontology.org/.

Definition:Anthracosis is the deposition of black carbon pigment. It is commonly seen in perihilar lymph nodes as well as within lung parenchyma. There can be prominent storiforming (i.e., spiral patterning) of histiocytes, to such an extent as to mimic a neoplastic lesion histologically. Anthracosis is a common finding in smokers and polluted city dwellers.
Comment:See Figure 15.11 in PMCID:PMC7262960.
