Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Edema is the accumulation of fluid in the tissue spaces. Scar refers to the formation of fibrous tissue during the healing process. Neutrophil refers to a type of white blood cell involved in inflammation and defense against infection. Granulation tissue refers to new, vascularized connective tissue that forms during the proliferative phase of wound healing. Secondary union refers to the process of wound healing where wound edges are not in close approximation and thus require longer healing time and increased scar formation.
