Fat necrosis is specialized necrosis of fat tissue, [10] resulting from the action of activated lipases on fatty tissues such as the pancreas. In the pancreas it leads to acute pancreatitis , a condition where the pancreatic enzymes leak out into the peritoneal cavity, and liquefy the membrane by splitting the triglyceride esters into fatty ...
Mobile encapsulated fat necrosis (MEFN) is a rare medical condition featuring the formation of a fibrotic capsule around a small, necrotic mass of fatty tissue. It is asymptomatic and benign but may be mistaken for other neoplasms due to its typical presentation as a firm nodule beneath the skin that can be moved around within the tissue.
Timing is important to wound healing. Critically, the timing of wound re-epithelialization can decide the outcome of the healing. [11] If the epithelization of tissue over a denuded area is slow, a scar will form over many weeks, or months; [12] [13] If the epithelization of a wounded area is fast, the healing will result in regeneration.
