A suggestion was made in order to alter the terminology of an inflammatory process from the Latin term of inflammatio or the Greek term of phlogosis to stromatitis (stroma - connective tissue sub-layer). The new term reflects the morphological base of the process and indicates that inflammation develops not in the parenchyma or in cells of tissues and organs but in their stroma. The suggested substitution has been supported by scientific and etymological arguments as well as by numerous examples.
