EE60.1 Hypertrophic scar

International Classification of Diseases for Mortality and Morbidity Statistics, 11th Revision, v2024-01

Hypertrophic scars result from the production of excessive amounts of collagen in the dermis during connective tissue repair following inflammation, injury or surgery. In contrast to keloid scars, they do not expand beyond the boundary of the initial injury or inflammation and may undergo spontaneous resolution.
