Alveolar necrosis refers to the death of cells in the alveoli, which are tiny air sacs in the lungs where gas exchange occurs. This condition can result from various factors such as infection, injury, or inadequate blood supply, leading to impaired lung function and potential complications. Treatment typically involves addressing the underlying cause and providing supportive care to improve lung function.

The word "cat" is an example of a compound alveolar as it is composed of the alveolar consonants /k/ and /t/.
Yes, necrosis can occur in the eye, a condition known as ocular necrosis. It is typically caused by infections, trauma, or reduced blood supply to the eye tissue. Ocular necrosis can lead to irreversible damage and vision loss if not promptly treated.
About 90% of the alveolar surface is made up of type I alveolar cells, also known as type I pneumocytes. These thin, flat cells facilitate gas exchange by allowing oxygen and carbon dioxide to pass through easily. The remaining alveolar surface is primarily composed of type II alveolar cells, which produce surfactant to reduce surface tension and prevent alveolar collapse.
The correct name for tissue necrosis is "necrosis" itself, which refers to the death of cells or tissues in the body due to factors like injury, infection, or lack of blood supply. There are various types of necrosis, such as coagulative, liquefactive, caseous, and gangrenous, each characterized by different pathological changes.
Traumatic dental injuries, particularly those involving a concussion or luxation of the tooth, most often lead to pulp necrosis. Specifically, intrusive luxation, where the tooth is pushed into the alveolar bone, is a common cause. This type of injury can disrupt the blood supply to the pulp, leading to tissue death over time. Additionally, fractures that expose the pulp can also result in necrosis due to bacterial invasion.
Necroses is the plural of necrosis
The correct spelling is "necrosis".
Necrosis is tissue death. It is common to find necrosis in the extremities, however necrosis can result from damage or disease in any living tissue or body part.
Cardiac Necrosis is the death of cardiac tissue.
There is no such thing... Do you avascular necrosis?
The duration of Necrosis - film - is 1.5 hours.
Bony necrosis is the death of bone tissue caused by poor blood supply. A synonym for bony necrosis is osteonecrosis.
NO
Liquefactive necrosis is good for your body, especially your brain (due to the beneficial liquids produced) but coagulative necrosis is bad due to the clumping and coagulation (i.e. clotting) that occurs.Coagulation necrosis is the "acute" necrosis in which the protein fibers become denatured and everything turns into a semi-solid mess of dead tissue. Liquefactive necrosis is a more "chronic" necrosis in which the dead tissue is digested into a liquid which can then be removed by the macrophages.
