H & E stain. A foreign-body giant cell is a collection of fused macrophages ( giant cell) which are generated in response to the presence of a large foreign body. This is particularly evident with catheters, parasites, or biomaterials that are inserted into the body for replacement or regeneration of diseased or damaged tissues. [1] [2] Foreign ...
Inflammation (from Latin: inflammatio) is part of the biological response of body tissues to harmful stimuli, such as pathogens, damaged cells, or irritants. [1] [2] The five cardinal signs are heat, pain, redness, swelling, and loss of function (Latin calor, dolor, rubor, tumor, and functio laesa ). Inflammation is a generic response, and ...

A foreign body reaction ( FBR) is a typical tissue response to a foreign body within biological tissue. [1] It usually includes the formation of a foreign body granuloma. [2] Tissue-encapsulation of an implant is an example, as is inflammation around a splinter. [3] Foreign body granuloma formation consists of protein adsorption, macrophages ...
