What Are Common Histological Findings in Accidental Injuries?
Common histological findings include:
1. Inflammation: This is the body's immediate response to injury. Histologically, inflammation is characterized by the presence of inflammatory cells like neutrophils, macrophages, and lymphocytes. 2. Necrosis: This refers to the death of cells and tissues due to severe injury. Necrotic tissue often appears as degenerated, with a loss of normal cell architecture. 3. Fibrosis: In the healing phase, fibroblasts proliferate and produce collagen fibers, leading to scar formation. 4. Regeneration: In some tissues, such as the liver, cells can regenerate to replace lost tissue. Histological signs of regeneration include increased cell division and the presence of immature cells.
