In theory, chronic
foreign body reaction with membrane formation can be avoided with "biodegradable" implants.

Apart from the absence of unfavorable outcomes such as
foreign body reaction, inflammation, necrosis, their ease of access and administration make these two materials preferable options.
Bornstein, "Mice that lack the angiogenesis inhibitor, thrombospondin 2, mount an altered
foreign body reaction characterized by increased vascularity," Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, vol.
Banff 97 scoring system was applied to classify the inflammatory changes and giant cell score was used to quantify the extent of
foreign body reactions after TACMs embolization [24].
The inflammatory response to the implant includes a component of acute and chronic inflammation and
foreign body reaction with the formation of granulation tissue.

Case report 736: Retained surgical sponge (gossypiboma) with a
foreign body reaction and remote and organizing hematoma.
Presenters from undergraduates to postgraduates spoke on an array of research topics, ranging from controlled drug release for pancreatic cancer patients to in vitro models of the
foreign body reaction and more.
It is derived from the latin word gossypium" (cotton) and the Swahili voice "boma" (place of concealment) (1) and makes reference to the cotton matrix and surrounding inflammatory
foreign body reaction or granuloma (2).
Cholesterol granuloma is a fibrogranulomatous lesion that develops secondary to a
foreign body reaction to cholesterol crystals and exhibits the accumulation of foreign body giant cells.
The cause of acne keloidalis nuchae may be associated with an acute pseudofolliculitis secondary to close-shaved curly hair reentering the skin; this leads to a
foreign body reaction to hair protein and subsequent fibrosis.
