Healing of inflammation often involves in growth of capillaries Healing of inflammation often involves in growth of capillaries. This forms granulation tissue. There are numerous capillaries, and fibroblasts and collagen of granulation tissue, healing a site of recent myocardial infarctions. Non-infracted myocardium is present at the far left. Diagnosis: granulation tissue at site of acute myocardial infarction.

At high magnification, granulation tissue has capillaries, fibroblasts, and a variable amount of mixed inflammatory cells (mostly mononuclear) Diagnosis: granulation tissue

Recently formed granulation tissue ( capillaries, fibroblasts & collagen fibers) at site of incised wound, the overlying epidermis heals by regeneration.

This is a healing biopsy site on the skin seen a week following the excision, The skin surface has re-epithelialized, and below this is granulation tissue with small capillaries and fibroblasts forming collagen Diagnosis: scar tissue

The end result of inflammation can be scarring The end result of inflammation can be scarring. Here, the alveolar walls are thickened and filled with pink collagen

Keloid: Raised ugly hypertrophied pinkish scar tissue
