This photomicrograph of the wall of an abscess (1) illustrates liquefaction necrosis in the center of the abscess (2). The remaining lung parenchyma (on the right side of the image) has extensive neutrophilic infiltration into the alveoli (3). This abscess has destroyed a portion of the lung, but other areas of the lung where the normal structure has been retained could recover normal function.
An abscess is a collection of pus (white blood cells) within a cavity formed by disintegrated tissue.
