Muscle fiber splitting (HP:0003555)help
Term ID: 3555
Name: Muscle fiber splitting
Synonym: Fiber splitting; Fibre splitting; Muscle fibre splitting
Definition: Fiber splitting or branching is a common finding in human and rat skeletal muscle pathology. Fiber splitting refers to longitudinal halving of the complete fiber, while branching originates from a regenerating end of a necrotic fiber as invaginations of the sarcolemma. In fiber branching, one end of the fiber remains intact as a single entity, while the other end has several branches.
