Tralci connettivali

[hitomi_85]

Ecco un altro dubbio medico: tralci connettivali/ tralci di connettivo.
Il testo è il seguente: "

"Aspetto microscopico della cirrosi: c’è un eccesso di stroma rispetto alla norma e si osservano spazi porto-biliari a forma di stella. Tralci connettivali sono presenti in sedi improprie: passano tra i cordoni di epatociti e si connettono con la vena centrolobulare. L’architettura dell’organo è alterata per la presenza di pseudolobuli formati da aree di parenchima di dimensioni aumentate rispetto ai normali lobuli, isolate dai tralci di connettivo, nelle quali la vena centrolobulare è eccentrica."

Cercando su internet ho trovato questa immagine (in allegato) e i tralci mi sembrano delle vere e proprie ramificazioni di tessuto connettivo.

Secondo voi, quindi, è corretto tradurre "branches of connective tissue/ connective branches"?

Tralci connettivali: Strands of connective tissue (?). Ma non sono un medico, per cui vedi se qualcuno lo conferma. E non so se tralci di connettivo significhi la stessa cosa.....

Ti ringrazio =) Aspettiamo altre conferme allora, io intanto faccio una ricerca

Tralci connettivali: Strands of connective tissue (?).

"Fat tissue. Coloured scanning electron micrograph (SEM) of fat cells (adipocytes, round) surrounded by fine strands of supportive connective tissue".

Grande Mary!

One of the key features of the microscopic appearance of liver cirrhosis is the formation of fibrous septa. These are thick bands of fibrous connective tissue that destroy the normal liver architecture and interfere with normal liver function.

In other words fibrous septa is the proper term used in pathology. The source of your excerpt doesn’t appear to be a medical text, so I think the term fibrous connective tissue bands would be fine here.

It’s definitely true that strands of connective tissue form the supporting fibrous structure of many tissues in our body, such as the delicate strands seen in mature fat in the photo posted by Mary. However, ‘strands of connective tissue’ would be an understatement in the context of established liver cirrhosis.

I was hoping you'd see this thread, Bic. It's nice to get expert opinion.

Thanks LC!

Thank you very much for your answer Bic. It is always useful to learn new things. I have often to translate medical texts and it isn't so easy

What a super answer, thanks a lot. I've been translating medical texts for a couple of year, but it still difficult for me to find the better translation for some terms.
