Scar Tissue
Presentation
- The present procedure can expose pulmonary artery buried in scar tissue, resulting in making the lobectomy safer.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Skin
Skin Discoloration
- Atrophy and skin discoloration are the main side effects. Cryotherapy. Cryotherapy involves the scar being frozen off. Pressure therapy. Pressure therapy involves a type of pressure appliance worn over the area of the scar.[hopkinsmedicine.org]
Musculoskeletal
Hip Dislocation
- She suffered of excruciating left retrotrochanteric pain after the implantation of a cementless total hip replacement and revision because of recurrent hip dislocations. Walking was limited to short distances using two crutches.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Hip Pain
- For example, women often report that after a c-section, they never feel like they regain the ability to use their abdominals, and they complain of chronic low-back or hip pain.[denverpainandperformance.com]
Neurologic
Neglect
- Deep partial or full-thickness burns if untreated, neglected, or managed conservatively can develop dysfunctional scar contractures with severe deformities and significant reduction in patient's activities of daily life.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
- "She found the cat." figurative (damage psychologically) ( مَجاز ) يحدث أذًى نفسيًّا، يسبّب أذًى نفسيًّا His parents' neglect scarred the child. سبّب إهمال الوالدين أذًى نفسيًّا للطفل.[wordreference.com]

- In hindsight, I can't believe I neglected purchasing this excellent book for so long. I'm a self confessed lover of auto-biographies and this did not disappoint.[amazon.co.uk]
Myelopathy
- Late onset cervical myelopathy secondary to fibrous scar tissue formation around the epidural electrode should be considered a possible event associated with SCS therapy.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Behavior Problem
- It may also cause emotional, social, and behavioral problems, especially when it is located in exposed areas. To date, no gold standard exists for the treatment of scar tissue.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Workup
T Wave
T Wave Alternans
- Abstract Microvolt T-wave alternans (MTWA) is an electrocardiographic marker for predicting sudden cardiac death.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Treatment
- To date, no gold standard exists for the treatment of scar tissue. Autologous fat grafting has been introduced as a promising treatment option for scar tissue-related symptoms. However, the scientific evidence for its effectiveness remains unclear.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Prognosis
- Abrikossoff's tumor (AT) is a rare, predominantly benign, asymptomatic, solitary, less than three cm-in-size tumor with usually favorable prognosis after surgical excision.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
- This work gives a promising outlook to new specific MRI probes for disease detection, prognosis, and monitoring disease progression or treatment response across a range of human conditions. Story Source: Materials provided by Wiley .[sciencedaily.com]
- Adhesions Prognosis Adhesions requiring surgery commonly come back because surgery itself causes adhesions.[emedicinehealth.com]
Etiology

Pathophysiology
- BACKGROUND: The association between epidural fibrosis and recurrent symptoms after lumbar spine surgery remains a matter of debate in scientific literature and the underlying pathophysiological mechanism has not been clearly elucidated.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
- According to a 2013 study conducted by Rodríguez and Galán del Río, fascia is the “skeleton of muscle fibers organized as a network and may be responsible for some of the pathophysiology and healing processes of muscular injuries.” 2 But injury is not[erikdalton.com]
- The pathophysiology of interstitial lung diseases, particularly IPF, resembles that of cancer development.[jcancer.org]
Prevention
- BACKGROUND: Silver dressings have been widely and successfully used to prevent cutaneous wounds, including burns, chronic ulcers, dermatitis and other cutaneous conditions, from infection.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
- Also, it is studied extensively and considered as a very promising preventive measure against hypertrophic scarring.[biomedcentral.com]
- Causes and prevention A keloid is a type of raised scar tissue.[medicalnewstoday.com]
- By restoring the range of movement in the area and preventing adhesions, massage can also help to prevent recurrences of injury in the area.[sagemassage.edu.au]
- Bellamkonda’s team tested the system in rats and found the enzyme prevented scar tissue formation for up to six weeks.[reuters.com]
