Absorption of cells or tissue into the circulatory system

Not to be confused with [reabsorption](/source/Reabsorption) of solutes from renal tubules into the circulatory system.

**Resorption** is the absorption of cells or tissue into the [circulatory system](/source/Circulatory_system), usually by [osteoclasts](/source/Osteoclast).[1]
