Pathomorphological characteristics of the thymus in sepsis in children

Abstract

AbstractThe formation and functional development of Gassal's bodies of the thymus normally occurs through 3 stages: construction, self-development and degeneration. Each stage of development of thymic bodies had certain morphological features in the form of cellular, glomerular, amorphous, layered, cystic and calcified formations. The qualitative and quantitative state of Gassal's bodies is of no small importance in assessing the functional activity of the thymus and developing atrophic and degenerative changes in it in sepsis.
