Fibrinoid necrosis
-
This deposition of fibrin-like proteinaceous material in the arterial walls appears smudgy and acidophilic.
-
Fibrinoid necrosis is often associated with immune-mediated vascular damage.
-
Fat necrosis occurs in two forms:
-
Traumatic fat necrosis, which occurs after a severe injury to tissue with high fat content, such as the breast
-
Enzymatic fat necrosis, which is a complication of acute hemorrhagic pancreatitis, a severe inflammatory disorder of the pancreas
-
Proteolytic and lipolytic pancreatic enzymes diffuse into inflamed tissue and literally digest the parenchyma.
-
Fatty acids liberated by the digestion of fat form calcium salts (saponification or soap formation).
-
Vessels are eroded, with resultant hemorrhage.
