Infiltration refers to the process by which substances, such as fluids or cells, permeate tissues or organs, often leading to pathological changes. In clinical practice, understanding infiltration is crucial for diagnosing conditions like infiltrative cancers or assessing the spread of infections, as it can significantly impact treatment decisions. A key example is the infiltration of local anaesthetic during procedures, which can lead to complications like nerve damage if not administered correctly.
