Abstract:
Objective To observe the effect of recombinant human growth hormone on flap survival and angiogenesis through preoperative local subcutaneous continuous injection of rhGH in narrow pedicle flap.Methods 40 rats were divided into two groups at random,named as groups Ⅰ and Ⅱ,20 rats each.A narrow pedicle flap was designed on the left back of rat in groups Ⅰ and Ⅱ.Then group Ⅰ was subcutaneously injected with rhGH [0.4 IU/(kg · d)] for 3 days.Another group did not have any injection.After 3 days,we established a model of narrow pedicle flaps in the left back of animals.After operation,the flaps of groups Ⅰ and Ⅱ were injected with rhGH [0.4 IU/(kg · d)]for 7 days.The survival percentage of the flap was calculated at 7'th day.Specimens were collected at the diffent point of time.Expression of VEGF,CD34 was detected by immunohistochemistry and ELISA.The MVD of the flaps was also calculated.Results According to the 7 days' observation after the surgery,the percentage of flap survival area for groups Ⅰ and Ⅱ was (100.00±0.00)%,and (94.00±1.10)% (P<0.05).The expression of VEGF,CD34 and the MVD values of group Ⅰ was higher than that of group Ⅱ at the same point of time (P<0.05),especially on the day of surgery.Conclusions Preoperative and local subcutaneaous continuous injection of rhGH on flaps can enhance the expression of VEGF and CD34 and microvascular formation,mitigate the damage of ischemia and hypoxia to flap during the postoperative period,and therefore improve the survival of narrow pedicle flap.
