Degenerations and infiltrations are the morphological manifestation of an altered metabolism within the cell.
- A particular kind of change within a cell or tissue may suggest that a specific type of alteration has occurred.
Degenerations and infiltrations are types of structural changes.
- These are best considered at a cellular level.
- These structural changes are deviations from the cell's normal structure and function.
  - Parameters are outside the normal physiological range for the cell.
Degeneration
- The tissue cell shows some change in itself.
Infiltration
- Something accumulates in the cell or tissue.
