Abstract:
Objective To study the histologic changes of arteries dilation under different hydraulic pressure. Methods Right carotid arteries were dilated by using hydraulic method with different pressures (40, 80, 120 kPa) normal saline. The endothelial cells, internal elastic membrane (IEM), smooth muscle (SM) and adventitia of the arteries were studied under microscope. The arterial calibre, thickness of tunica intima and smooth muscle were measured under TJTY-300 automatic medical photograph analyser. Results 1) The calibre of the dilated arteries increased. 2) When the pressure was 40 kPa, there were mild injuries of endothelial cells, internal elastic membrane and smooth muscle; all the injuries recovered to normal 1 week later. 3) The degree of injury of the individual layers of the arteries gradually aggravated as the pressure raised up to over 80 kPa. The repair also required long periods of time and was found imperfect. The proliferation of fibres of connective tissues took place one week later. Conclusion 1) Blood flow could be increased after hydraulic dilation of the artery, and the strength of washing away the small thrombosis over the site of anastomosis could be increased. 2) For safety, the hydraulic pressure of arterial dilation should be better kept within 40 kPa.
