• hypertrophy
  3 June 2003

  Definition: Hypertrophy refers to an increase in the size of cells, resulting in an increase in the size of the organ.
  Pathogenesis
  The hypertrophied organ has no new cells, just larger cells. The increased size of the cells is due not to cellular swelling but to the synthesis of more structural components.
  Cells capable of division may respond to stress by undergoing both hyperplasia and hypertrophy, whereas in nondividing cells (e.g., myocardial fibers), hypertrophy occurs.

• multilocular thymic cyst
  14 September 2004

  Definition: Multilocular thymic cyst (MTC) most likely results from the cystic transformation of medullary duct epithelium-derived structures (including Hassall corpuscles) induced by an acquired inflammatory process. (#2006719#)
  Multilocular thymic cyst (MTC) would be pathogenetically analogous to a variety of cystic conditions of the head and neck region, for which the common denominator seems to be the induction of cystic transformation in ductular epithelial formations of branchial (...)
