TLDR
The peculiar arrangement of endothelial cells and undifferentiated mesenchymal cells, the examples of apparent atrial wall invasion, and the cases of embolic "metastases" provide no conclusive evidence of neoplasia, since these features may also be seen with ordinary mural thrombi.About:

Journal ArticleDOI
Cardiac papillary fibroelastoma: a comprehensive analysis of 725 cases
Ramesh M. Gowda,Ijaz A. Khan,Chandra K. Nair,Nirav J. Mehta,Balendu C. Vasavada,Terrence J. Sacchi +5 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors examined the demographics, clinical characteristics, pathological features, treatment, and prognosis of CPF and found that the successful complete resection of the cardiac papillary fibroelastoma is curative and the long-term postoperative prognosis is excellent.
Journal ArticleDOI
Primary cardiac tumors
TL;DR: Sixteen consecutive primary tumors of the heart have been surgically treated at Duke University Medical Center since 1966 with no perioperative deaths and no late recurrences.
Journal ArticleDOI
The relationship between coronary artery lesions and myocardial infarcts: Ulceration of atherosclerotic plaques precipitating coronary thrombosis
TL;DR: Myocardial lesions related to clinical events associated with coronary artery hypoperfusion centric, and not confined to the distribution of a single coronary artery were found, and were unassociated with acute coronary lesions and histologically displayed contraction band necrosis more frequently than the embolic and atherosclerotic related lesions.

Surgical treatment of cardiac papillary fibroelastoma: a single center experience with eighty-eight patients.
Dumbor L. Ngaage,Charles J. Mullany,Richard C. Daly,Joseph A. Dearani,William D. Edwards,Henry D. Tazelaar,Christopher G.A. McGregor,Thomas A. Orszulak,Francisco J. Puga,Hartzell V. Schaff,Thoralf M. Sundt,Kenton J. Zehr +11 more
TL;DR: Cardiac papillary fibroelastoma has a propensity to affect the anatomically contiguous structures of the aortic valve, left ventricular outflow tract, and anterior mitral leaflet and surgery by simple shave excision is low risk and can achieve good results.

Journal ArticleDOI
Presence of modified fibroblasts in granulation tissue and their possible role in wound contraction.
Giulio Gabbiani,Ryan Gb,G. Majno +2 more
TL;DR: Au cours de la contraction du tissu de granulation, de nombreux fibroblastes acquièrent des caractéristiques ultrastructurelles qui les rendent semblables à des cellules musculaires lisses.
Journal ArticleDOI
Granulation tissue as a contractile organ: a study of structure and function
TL;DR: The view that, under certain conditions, fibroblasts can differentiate into a cell type structurally and functionally similar to smooth muscle and that this cell, the "myo-fibroblast," plays an important role in connective tissue contraction is supported.
Journal ArticleDOI
Myofibroblasts in human granulation tissue.
Ryan Gb,Walter J. Cliff,Giulio Gabbiani,Claude Irle,Denys Montandon,Peter R. Statkov,Guido Majno +6 more
TL;DR: Fibroblasts of human granulation tissues develop structural and functional features typical of smooth muscle cells and are proposed to be responsible for the contraction of granulation tissue, a process useful in closing wounds though potentially harmful in other situations.

Wound healing and collagen formation. I. Sequential changes in components of guinea pig skin wounds observed in the electron microscope.
Russell Ross,Earl P. Benditt +1 more
TL;DR: The regular sequence encountered in healing guinea pig skin wounds has been examined by methods of light and electron microscopy and several proposed mechanisms of collagen fibril formation are discussed in relation to the observed phenomena.

Human wound repair. II. Inflammatory cells, epithelial-mesenchymal interrelations, and fibrogenesis.
Russell Ross,George F. Odland +1 more
TL;DR: Connective tissue repair was studied in a series of skin wounds in young adult males, finding cells which appear like poorly developed or immature fibroblasts can be followed during the different stages of wound repair.
