Keloid and Hypertrophic Scars: Comparative Histopathological and Immunohistochemical Study
Keloids and hypertrophic scars are different expressions of the same derailment of wound healing; their biological behaviors and appearances are quite different. The clinical differences between hypertrophic scars and keloids have long been recognized. However, distinguishing between the two types of scars on histology is sometimes difficult as the ‘keloid collagen’, the hallmark of keloid, is ...
متن کاملHypertrophic scars and Keloids
The available treatment modalities for hypertrophic scars and keloids have very little success. Surgical treatment of these lesions without adjuvant therapy is also associated with high recurrence rate. Hypertrophic scars and keloids are the results of a series of cellular and molecular changes which their identification can guide us toward new treatment modalities which may decrease the ...

متن کاملComparison of a silicone gel-filled cushion and silicon gel sheeting for the treatment of hypertrophic or keloid scars.
BACKGROUND The exact mechanisms of action responsible for the effectiveness of silicone gel dressings are unknown, although it has been proposed that static electricity generated by friction could be the reason for their anti-scarring effects. OBJECTIVE We compared the efficacy of a cushion of silicone filled with liquid silicone gel reported to induce greater negative static-electric charge ...
متن کاملKeloid and Hypertrophic Scars Are the Result of Chronic Inflammation in the Reticular Dermis
Keloids and hypertrophic scars are caused by cutaneous injury and irritation, including trauma, insect bite, burn, surgery, vaccination, skin piercing, acne, folliculitis, chicken pox, and herpes zoster infection. Notably, superficial injuries that do not reach the reticular dermis never cause keloidal and hypertrophic scarring. This suggests that these pathological scars are due to injury to t...
