background and objectives: in spite of large number of studies conducted so far, sudden cardiac death remains an enigma and relative importance of acute coronary events as a trigger of sudden death is currently unclear. an autopsy study of heart was therefore planned to observe various histomorphological cardiac changes, and to determine the frequency association of acute coronary events and my...

BACKGROUND Diabetic foot ulceration has a complex and multifactorial etiology and can involve changes in the pathophysiology of the plantar soft tissue. In the current study, histomorphological analyses of diabetic and non-diabetic plantar tissue were performed. It was hypothesized that the diabetic tissue would have thicker skin (epidermis and dermis), less interdigitation between the dermis a...

Introduction: The process of wound healing is best represented by an uninfected surgical wound. It characterized the formation granulation tissue, with migration and proliferation fibroblasts, neoangiogenesis production extracellular matrix. Granulation tissue gradually replaced scar made up connective and, in most cases - ended three or four weeks. whole takes about six weeks a newly formed ha...

Cryosclerosis was developed at the end of the last decade. It is the endovenous cryoablation of the great saphenous vein and has been forgotten before the era of the endovenous ablation techniques began. The caused histomorphological changes of the vein weren't described before, especially, years after the procedure. A 31-year-old female patient underwent cryosclerosis 2 years ago. Because of t...

BACKGROUND Basal cell carcinoma (BCC) recurrences are relatively frequent event in a routine dermatologic practice. One of the most important factor which impacts risk of their development is a histomorphological appearance of tumor. DESIGN The purpose of our study was to compare histological types of primary and corresponding relapsing BCCs of the skin. MATERIAL AND METHODS The study inclu...
