Inflammation Demarcation

Demarcation inflammation (French demarcation demarcation; synonym: v. defensive, v. protective, v. limiting) is inflammation aimed at localizing and limiting damage/infection.

Demarcation inflammation occurs in response to tissue damage or infection. It activates the immune system to destroy pathogens and remove damaged cells and tissues. In this case, the process is localized in the affected area due to the formation of granulation tissue and fibrosis.

The main signs of demarcation inflammation:

  1. Redness, swelling and pain at the injury site

  2. Local temperature increase

  3. Increased blood supply and vascular permeability

  4. Infiltration by leukocytes and macrophages

  5. Fibroblastic proliferation and granulation formation

  6. Formation of connective tissue scar

Thus, demarcation inflammation is aimed at limiting the lesion and restoring tissue integrity. It is an important protective and adaptive process of the body.



Demarcation inflammation (French demarcation demarcation; synonym: v. defensive, v. protective, v. limiting) is a type of inflammatory reaction in which the body seeks to localize and limit the spread of infection.

Character traits:

  1. Develops in response to infection
  2. Aimed at localizing and limiting the source of infection
  3. Accompanied by an increased outflow of leukocytes to the site of inflammation
  4. Manifested by hyperemia, edema and tissue infiltration in the affected area
  5. May lead to the formation of an abscess or abscess
  6. Is a manifestation of the body's protective reaction

Demarcation inflammation prevents the generalization of infection and promotes localization and subsequent elimination of the pathogen. It is an important component of the body's immune defense.
