Is avascular necrosis caused by diabetes?
Avascular necrosis best known as osteonecrosis today, means bone death from lack of blood supply and is usually due to interuption of supply because the main arteries are dama…ged by injury or the get blocked. In diabetes areas of the capilliary bed can become totaly occluded. This happens throughout the body and has been demonstrated within the retina, the heart and also in nerves. The hypothesis that this occurs in bones has recently been brought to the attention of the scientific community following a case report from Dr Geraint Jones' unit at East Lancashire Hospitals Trust, presented at the DFSG meeting at Bled, and published in the proceedings. The suggestion is that ostoenecrosis is a hitherto unrecognised microvascular complication of diabetes. (MORE)

What is the difference between apoptosis and necrosis?
Apoptosis is cell death via shrinkage, whereas oncotic necrosis is cell death via swelling. The term necrosis was used for cell death before these two different processes (s…hrinkage and swelling) were discovered. For this reason, it is still sometimes used to refer to both apoptosis and oncotic necrosis. However, necrosis is also sometimes used to mean only cell death via swelling. To avoid confusion, it is best to use the terms apoptosis and oncotic necrosis (and not just 'necrosis'). (MORE)

What is the diagnosis of coagulative necrosis?
Coagulative necrosis is a histopathological diagnosis, meaning a sample of the tissue was taken and placed on a microscope slide then evaluated by a trained veterinary patholo…gist. Necrosis means death, so the tissue sample had many dead cells in it. Coagulative means clotted, so the tissue sample also had a lot of protein from no identifiable source that was making a big blob of protein on the slide. Coagulative necrosis is the primary diagnosis of recent tissue injury and death. Over time, the body will naturally clean out the dead tissue and replace it either with normal tissue or with scar tissue. If you read this diagnosis for one of your pets, it means an organ or tissue was severely damaged in one area (the part that was biopsied). However, this doesn't give any indication how wide-spread the damage was, if this is an on-going process or not, or if other organs or tissues were affected. You will need to talk with your veterinarian about the full pathology report as well as results of clinical tests (like blood work) to see what this means in terms of health or disease for your pet.
