Granulation tissue forms when wound heal.
Gross
- Looks granular, ergo the name granulation tissue.
Image:
Microscopic
Features:
- Blood vessel rich - key element.[1]
- Small size ~ 25 micrometers in diameter.[citation needed]
- Proliferation of fibroblasts - key element.
- Inflammation - especially lymphocytes.
- Plasma cells common.
DDx:
- Mucocele.
- Pyogenic granuloma.
- Traumatized hemangioma.

The sections show vascular tissue with plump fibroblasts, reactive endothelial cells and a mixed inflammatory infiltrate (granulation tissue). Focally, a dense cluster of neutrophils is seen at the luminal aspect.
A single layer of epithelium with pale, plump nuclei is present without apparent mitotic activity. Inflamed subepithelial tissue is present. No stratified urothelium is identified. No significant nuclear atypia is present.
