Pathomorphosis

Pathomorphosis is the process of changing the morphological signs of a disease or pathological condition as a result of the influence of various factors. It can be both positive and negative. Positive pathomorphosis is characterized by an improvement in the patient’s condition, a decrease in the severity of symptoms and an improved prognosis. Negative pathomorphosis, on the contrary, indicates progression of the disease and worsening prognosis.

Pathomorphosis can be caused by various reasons, such as changes in the immune system, genetic mutations, environmental influences and other factors. For example, in some cancers, positive pathomorphism is observed after chemotherapy or radiation therapy. This is because these treatments can reduce tumor size and improve its morphological characteristics.

However, pathomorphosis can also be associated with negative consequences. For example, after radiation therapy to the head and neck area, changes in tissue structure may occur, which can lead to the development of cancer in that area. Therefore, when carrying out treatment, it is necessary to take into account all possible consequences and choose treatment methods that will be most effective and safe for the patient.

In general, pathomorphosis is an important concept in medicine, which allows one to evaluate the effectiveness of treatment and predict the further course of the disease. However, in order to avoid negative consequences, it is necessary to conduct a thorough analysis of the pathomorphosis and choose the optimal treatment methods.

Pathomorphosis (lat. patomorfosis - change in the image of the disease), a modification of a previously known disease, clinically indistinguishable from the latter. There are: degenerative (dystrophic), hyperplastic, desmoplastic and proliferative pathomorphoses. In the first case, the organs develop de
