Abstract:
66 flaps including 6 controlled, were divided into two models, each includes 30 flaps and each model was divided into 5 groups, evaluated after 4, 8, 12, 16 and 20 days after implantation. From the random implantation of a isolated pedicle of artery or vena in an abdomen skin flap, new blood vessels occurred and connected with the existent system of vessels in the flap. After 20 days, new vascularity was established in both models, as the same in the control group. Blood supply was considered appropriate and the flap could be moved safely along the newly implanted pedicle
