Explain of Cellular Injury

20. Liquefactive necrosis, liver abscess, microscopic

The two lung abscesses seen here are examples of liquefactive necrosis in which there is a liquid center in an area of tissue injury.
One abscess appears in the upper lobe and one in the lower lobe. Liquefactive necrosis is typical of organs in which the tissues have a lot of lipid (such as brain) or when there is an abscess with lots of acute inflammatory cells whose release of proteolytic enzymes destroys the surrounding tissues.
