Published: April 2023

Soft tissue necrosis can occur at different tissue levels, with numerous underlying causes. In this pictorial review, we highlight myonecrosis, and its accompanying stages, fat necrosis, devitalized soft tissue seen with infection, and necrotizing soft tissue infections. Imaging examples are provided with each entity.

Dematiaceous molds often cause noninvasive disease but have the potential to cause disseminated infection, particularly in immunosuppressed hosts. is the most neurotropic of dematiaceous molds and is associated with brain abscesses, but disseminated infection is quite rare. Here we present a case of disseminated in a 67-year-old renal transplant recipient with multifocal soft tissue, bone and presumed central nervous system involvement.

Soft tissue sarcomas (STSs) are rare malignancies, with retroperitoneal soft tissue sarcoma (RPS) constituting 10%-15% of all STSs. RPS often presents late due to minimal early symptoms, typically requiring complete en-bloc resection for optimal survival outcomes. Achieving radical resection can be challenging due to the tumor's proximity to vital organs.

Hydrogels are popular platforms for cell encapsulation in biomedicine and tissue engineering due to their soft, porous structures, high water content, and excellent tunability. Recent studies highlight that the timing of network formation can be just as important as mechanical properties in influencing cell morphologies. Conventionally, time-dependent properties can be achieved through multi-step processes.
