Abstrakt: The article titled "Understanding the Term 'Necrobiosis'" explains the term "necrobiosis" in dermatopathology and its various interpretations. It discusses the confusion caused by different authors describing the term differently. The article suggests using simpler terminology like "altered collagen" or "altered dermal connective tissue" when describing histological sections or generating skin biopsy reports. Necrobiosis refers to histopathological changes in the dermal connective tissue, including the presence of flame figures and structural alterations in collagen fibers. It can be seen in conditions like granuloma annulare, lupus miliaris disseminatus faciei, and sarcoidosis, but using more specific descriptions may be more helpful. [Extracted from the article]
