title: Histomorphologic changes in keloids treated with Kenacort.
abstract: Morphologic changes in steroid-treated keloids were established using light and electron microscopy. Attention was directed to the characterization of the tree states of fibroblasts in keloids treated with Kenacort. The probable role of corticosteroids in the regulation of the keloid structure was discussed.
