Scanning electronmicroscopy of hypertrophic and keloid scar.
نویسنده
چکیده
The scanning electronmicroscopic appearances of hypertrophic and keloid scar before and after treatment, mature scar and normal skin have been investigated. There is a graduation of features such as collagen orientation and fibre size which accompanies the clinical maturation from the active hypertrophic state into mature scar, a process which is hastened but not materially altered by treatment with steroid or compression-occlusion.

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 کاملNew insights into the prevention and treatment strategies for hypertrophic scars and keloids
Hypertrophic scars and keloids are fibrosis abnormalities associated with the accumulation of collagen and extra cellular matrix components. These scars are caused by abnormal wound healing, which may occur after skin injuries caused by surgery, trauma, burns, etc. and may have a large impact on the patients’ quality of life. Hypertrophic scars and colloids in addition to aesthetic problems can...
متن کاملTissue engineered human scar models identify extracellular matrix and in!ammatory cytokine di"erences between normotrophic, hypertrophic and keloid scars
Hypertrophic and keloid scars are the result of unknown abnormalities in the wound healing process. The aim of this study was to develop physiologically relevant, human in vitro abnormal scar models for hypertrophic and keloid scars and compare these to normotrophic scars and normal skin to identify dierences in the pathogenesis of different scars. Keratinocytes and broblasts from normal skin a...

Scars are a result of the natural healing process that occurs when the skin repairs itself after wounds, trauma, burns, surgical incision, or disease. Normal skin tissue is replaced with scar tissue to close open wounds and prevent infection. Scars can be painful, cause itching, and limit mobility. Many scars are primarily a cosmetic concern, but their presence may have a significant negative i...
