Question 5
pts
Compare and contrast the two types of gangrenous necrosis.
Your Answer:
Dry gangrene is when the tissue becomes dyhydrated and shrinks back and becomes dark
brown/black in color and the spread of dry gangrene is slow. In wet gangrene the affected area is
cold, swollen, and does not have a pulse, the skin is moist, black and disteneded. Small blisters
blebs on the skins surface where liquefaction occurs and bad order that is caused by bacteria and the
spread of tissue damage is fast.
In dry gangrene the affected tissue becomes dry and shrinks, the skin wrinkles, and its color
changes to dark brown or black. The spread of dry gangrene is slow. It results from a cut off in
arterial blood supply and is a form of coagulation necrosis. In wet gangrene, the affected area
is cold, swollen, and pulseless. The skin is moist, black, and under tension. Blebs form on the
surface, liquefaction occurs, and a foul odor is caused by bacterial action. The spread of
tissue damage is rapid.
