You are on a surgical rotation. Three days ago, you got to close the incision on the ‘big’ surgery that took ten hours. On attending rounds, you are asked the following question: ‘If we were to biopsy your perfectly closed and healing wound, what would we expect to find?’

A. Granulation tissue, a large amount of neovascularization, and evidence of epithelial proliferation

B. The incision filled with a clot

C. Macrophages and granulation tissue

D. Neutrophils, mitoses in the epithelial basal cells, and closure of the wound site

E. Proliferation of fibroblasts, enough collagen deposition to produce a small scar, and no inflammation or newly formed vessels

come on guys this is easy :icon_cyclop:

  #3

MY guess is -E

I've rearranged this process and the correct answer is D .

B. The incision filled with a clot (first 24h)

D. Neutrophils, mitoses in the epithelial basal cells, and closure of the wound site (within 24 to 48h)

C. Macrophages and granulation tissue

A. Granulation tissue, a large amount of neovascularization, and evidence of epithelial proliferation

E. Proliferation of fibroblasts, enough collagen deposition to produce a small scar, and no inflammation or newly formed vessels

my answer is C

  #6

I think it is A

Phase 1 - acute inflammation+ vasodilation+increased permeability>fluid accumulation -[ within 24 hrs] -recollect wounds are oozy in begining-epithelium starts growing with 2 hrs .

Phase 2- granulation+ neovascularization- 24-48 hrs + mono and lympho (T subsets)[ mono secrete growth factors]-

Phase 3 - Fibroblast proliferation/mild deposition - 48-72 hrs - very diagnostic-recollect from surgical ward round- fluid oozing decreases-dressings are not changed after 72 hrs

Phase 4- epithelization/ moderate collagen -after 72 hrs-collagen deposition is Maximum between 1-3 weeks


any corrections guys?

Deepak :wink:
