Abstract:
Objective To determine whether rTFPI could inhibit vascular thrombosis and salvage random pattern skin flaps following AIRC in rat models.Methods From April,2013 to June,2015,30 adult male Sprague-Dawley rats were randomized into 3 groups;a control group,an avulsion injury with roll compaction (AIRC) group,and an AIRC plus rTFPI therapy group.An 8.0 cm× 2.5 cm random flap was raised on the dorsum of each rat.The AIRC and AIRC plus rTFPI flaps were then altered with a device designed to simulate avulsion injury with roll compaction.After flap closure primarily,treatment was initiated immediately and continued for 3 days.Phosphate buffered saline was used in the control group and the AIRC group,while the AIRC plus rTFPI group received the recombinant Tissue Factor Pathway Inhibitor.Laser Doppler flowmetry and infra-red thermalgraphy were used on postoperative day three to assess nicrocirculatory blood flow and viability of the avulsed flaps.At postoperative day seven,final flap survival was determined.Using SPSS19.0 statistical analysis.Results The flap survival in AIRC group was only (32.7 ± 5.2)% versus (62.5 ± 6.5)% in control group,but the flap survival significantly increased (51.6 ± 8.2)% after topical injecting rTFPI in experimental group.Statistically significant differences exist (P < 0.05) between every two groups.The detection results of Laser-Doppler flowmetry and infra-red thermography showed that perfusion arrived the centre of the flaps in experimental group,while perfusion only arrived the proximal part of the flaps in the AIRC control group.Conclusion rTFPI therapy is effective in reducing ischemic necrosis of random pattern flaps following avulsion injury in the rat model.It suggests that rTFPI therapy may play an important role in clinical salvage of the failing avulsion injuries with roll compaction.
