Briefly, a colloidal matrix of fibrin forms within three hours after injury, marking the starting point of granulation tissue infiltration. Fibroblasts [2] and macrophages [3] recruited to local damaged tissue, together with the fibrin matrix, form granulation tissue in one to three days. ...
MRI was used to confirm whether the TMJ disc had undergone anterior displacement after surgery. The rats were first anesthetized with isoflurane (5% for induction and 1% for maintenance) and O2. Then, pentobarbital sodium (0.05 mg/kg) was injected intraperitoneally. The MR images of the TMJs ...
It is inevitable that scar formation occurs between the spinal dura and surrounding tissues after laminectomy. While extensive epidural fibrosis, which results in limited nerve root activity and severe pain, is the main cause of postoperative failed-back surgery syndrome. Novel biomaterial loading effect...

A first group of mice have been treated starting from 2 h before MCAo until day 3 after the surgery (early depletion). A second group of mice received GdCl3 from day 14 to day 17 post-MCAo (late depletion). Both groups were sacrificed immediately at the end of the treatment. Finally,...
Tissue-to-tissue adhesions are attachments between tissues, organs, or other anatomical structures which are normally separate from one another. These adhesions are typically composed of fibrous bands of scar-like tissue which may form as a result of trauma, surgery, infection or other stimulus. ...
The devices may also be employed to prevent the formation of internal blood clots after surgery or traumatic injury. The devices may also be employed in covering denuded epithelial surfaces or weakened areas such as damaged middle ear mucosa or other mucosal surfaces, thinned vascular walls, or su...
