Sentence/Example of Infarction:

The engorgement of the obstructed territory has received the name of hemorrhagic infarction.

The wedge-shaped nodule of hemorrhagic infarction becomes decolorized through the absorption, in part, of the blood-pigment.

Causes which obstruct the venous flow, as well as those which increase the arterial tension, promote the hemorrhagic infarction.

Hence the infarction becomes the most characteristically developed in such organs as the lungs and spleen.
