according to UWORLD in Day 10-14 there is granulation tissue , 2 weeks to 2 months there's collagen deposition and scar formation , so good luck to pick up 18 days
Jokes on me, I pay $60 for NBME to tell me granulation tissue exists 18 days after infarct but UWORLD and AMBOSS say 3-14 days after infarct for granulation tissue and 2 weeks to several months for scar formation.
Why is the answer โgranulation tissueโ? I thought after 14 days you have a fully formed scar.
Myocardial scar tissue for comparison. Note the intense fibrous deposits.

Since you see vascularity that is why it is granulation tissue. Fibrous scar would be 1 month after and you wouldn't see that much blood.
