Liquefactive necrosis of the brain Liquefactive necrosis of the brain. The field contains sheets of foamy macrophages. In contrast to coagulative necrosis, the native tissue architecture has been lost. The foamy macrophages contain engulfed lipid-rich myelin and cellular debris. Liquefactive necrosis is common in tissues with relatively low protein content (e.g., the brain) or in situations where there is a high local concentration of proteolytic enzymes (e.g., abscesses; necrosis of pancreatic tissue).
