Study Notes
Fibrinous Inflammation
- Characterized by the deposition of fibrin in extracellular spaces
- Occurs in cases of severe injuries with high vascular permeability, allowing larger molecules like fibrinogen to escape the endothelial barrier
- Examples of fibrinous exudate locations include meninges, pericardium, and pleura
- Fibrinous pericarditis is a type of fibrinous inflammation, featuring deposits of fibrin on the pericardium
- Fibrin exudate forms a pink meshwork that overlays the pericardial surface
