Pathological Process Local

A local pathological process is a process that occurs within a specific organ or tissue of the body.

Local pathological processes are limited to damage to specific cells, tissues or organs and do not affect the entire body as a whole. These include processes such as inflammation, tumor damage, dystrophy, and necrosis of individual tissue areas.

The causes of local pathological processes can be different - infectious, toxic, traumatic, hereditary, etc. They lead to disruption of the normal functioning of cells and tissues in a limited area.

Clinical manifestations of local pathological processes depend on the location, nature and extent of the lesion. This may be pain, dysfunction of the organ, changes in the size and shape of tissues.

Diagnosis of local pathological processes includes laboratory and instrumental methods for examining the affected organ or tissue. Treatment is aimed at eliminating the cause and limiting the spread of the pathological process.

Thus, a local pathological process is a limited lesion of a certain area of ​​the body, requiring timely diagnosis and adequate treatment to prevent further spread.



A local pathological process is a disruption of the body’s vital processes that occurs in a certain part of the body or organ. This term describes the body's reaction to some threatening situation. Let's say if cancer grows in the oral cavity or larynx, it is called a pathological process of local significance.

In simple terms, the pathological process is the death of a cell. Even though a dying cell retains all its essential components (the cells multiply and die within seconds), the rest of the cell does not understand what is happening and initiates a specific reaction known as a pathological process. What happens is that in order to prevent the loss of an entire cell or tissue, the body’s defense system, the immune system, is activated to eliminate the cause of the pathology.
