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 (shrinkage 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').

Fat necrosis is one of many types of necrosis. Necrosis is cell death with inflammation (different from apoptosis, which is without inflammation). Fat necrosis occurs in two forms. 1.

Fat necrosis as a result of acute haemorrhagic pancreatitis. In this case, damage to the pancrease releases lipolytic enzymes into the blood, causing damage, and eventual necrosis of adipocytes.
