MYOCARDIAL FIBROSIS IN CYSTIC FIBROSIS OF THE PANCREAS
Journal of Paediatrics and Child Health, 1970SYNOPSIS A series of 6 cases of cystic fibrosis of the pancreas complicated by myocardial fibrosis is presented. This complication has been reported on only 2 occasions in the English literature. In the Dunedin hospital, which serves a population of less than 250,000, 5 cases have been found at necropsy since 1948.

Renal fibrosis causes significant morbidity and mortality as the primary acquired lesion leading to the need for dialysis or kidney transplantation. Fibrosis can occur in either the filtering or reabsorptive component of the nephron, the functional unit of the kidney.

Best Practice & Research Clinical Rheumatology, 2012
Retroperitoneal fibrosis is a rare syndrome hallmarked by a fibrosclerotic tissue in the retroperitoneum, often leading to encasement of the ureters. About two-thirds of cases of retroperitoneal fibrosis are idiopathic, while the remaining cases are secondary to a variety of different causes, including drugs, tumors and infections.

Fibrosis is the production of excessive amounts of connective tissue, i.e., scar formation, in the course of reactive and reparative processes. Fibrosis develops as a consequence of various underlying diseases and presents a major diagnostically and therapeutically unsolved problem.

Abstract Cystic fibrosis (CF) is a recessively inherited disease caused by mutations in the cystic fibrosis gene, located on the long arm of chromosome 7, which codes for a membrane protein—the cystic fibrosis transmembrane regulator protein—that is a chloride channel.

Knowledge on the development and progression of liver fibrosis has grown exponentially in the past decade. At present, liver fibrogenesis is referred to as a dynamic process involving complex cellular and molecular mechanisms, resulting from the chronic activation of the tissue repair mechanisms that follows reiterated liver tissue injury.

The pathogenesis of pulmonary fibrosis: Is there a fibrosis gene?
The International Journal of Biochemistry & Cell Biology, 1997Interstitial fibrosis is seen in the lung in response to a variety of insults, and often appears stereotypical in terms of its clinical and pathological features. However, exposure to a known aetiological factor does not always lead to fibrosis. For example in bleomycin-induced pulmonary fibrosis, a wide variation in response is seen both in humans and

Retroperitoneal fibrosis is idiopathic in two thirds of cases and is found most commonly as an isolated fibrotic plaque centered over the lower lumbar spine and entrapping one or both ureters. It has been postulated that the fibrosis in the idiopathic cases results from a hypersensitivity reaction to antigens leaking into the retroperitoneum from ...

On a daily basis, pathologists examine the fundamental basis of human diseases using morphologic, immunologic, and molecular techniques. Cystic fibrosis (CF), as a clinically heterogeneous disease, exemplifies the complex challenges of genetic diseases for the pathologist who attempts to explain the mechanisms of disease and provide rationale for ...
