What is myofibrom?
myofibrom is the benign formation of smooth cells similar to muscle that forms a tumor in fibrous connective tissue. It is somewhat unclear why myofibromas develop, but can be found in most connective tissues, bones and abdominal cavities. Myofibromas play an important role in growth and differentiation, as well as wound healing. They can also play a role in the formation of cancer of myofibroma and other complications if they are not treated. Myofibromas come in several variations and positive prognosis depends on whether there is visceral involvement - the presence of tumors into vital organs. If the authorities are affected, mortality may increase because these visceral lesions lead to obstruction of organs, infection and in most cases to death. Myofibroma with visceral lesions usually leads to death at birth or shortly after birth due to cardiopulumonary and gastrointestinal complications.
solitary myofibromas occur in certain areas and generally have individual submucosal nodes. Mulitcentric myfibromas have many submucosalh knots. In both cases, the treatment of lonely and multicentric myofibromas includes surgery and a positive prognosis of spontaneous regression. In general, infantile myofibromas can be surgically removed under general anesthesia with low recurrence. These tumors may occur in any part of soft tissues, bones or vital organs.
found in adulthood myofibromas may appear in any tissue and are common in head and neck areas. They are also most predominant in the wound areas where connective tissue and fibroblasts - cell groups, which Contribute to form connective tissue fibers - scars. The areas suffering from repeated injuries will have a higher percentage of myofibroma formations. In most cases, these types of myfibroma tumors can be removed surgically.
myofibrome tumors also play an essential role in the inflammatory process and create molecules of intracellular ADHEze, along with molecules of vascular and nerve adhesions that facilitate lymphocyte production. These lymphocytes participate in inflammatory and immunological reactions that can lead to the condition of the disease. They can produce molecules such as collagen and glycosaminoglycans that contribute to differentiation of growth and wound healing. If they are left separately or incorrectly diagnosed, these formations may cause tissue fibrosis, which can lead to cancer.
It is essential for the doctor to monitor after careful diagnosis, as most of myofibroma tumors can be surgically removed with small or no difficulty. Misdiagnosm, however, lead to proliferation of fibrotic tissues. This can lead to the development of the disease.
