Experimental remarks on various types of small vessel anastomoses.

Experiments were carried out on small arteries in dogs with end-to-end anastomosis by conventional sutures. Nakayama's rings and methyl-2-Cyanocrylate adhesive. Problems concerning their application for a satisfactory patency of the vessels are discussed. In conclusion, the best results were observed in the second group, while the use of adhesive material, though promising, is not to be advocated till further development of the material.

Experimental remarks on the utilization of biological tissue adhesives in lymphovenous anastomosis.

The present experimental study deals with the utilization of biological tissue adhesives in an effort to estimate their value in lympho-venous anastomoses. The entire experimental work was carried out on 8 dogs, using the thoracic duct and the jugular vein for a lympho-venous anastomosis. The study also describes the experimental steps and overall technique. The anastomoses were carried out in an end to side fashion with four stitches and were completed with a biological adhesive substance later ( Fibrinkleber ). All the anastomoses were re-investigated for occlusion, formation of thrombus or a lymphatic fistula. There were no deaths. One of the anastomoses was occluded by a thrombus but no fistula was found in any of the dogs. The above results indicate that biological adhesive substances can be used satisfactorily as an adhesive substance in lymphovenous anastomosis.

Experimental remarks after cervical sympathectomy.

The present experimental work was undertaken to determine some quantitative changes occurring after cervical sympathectomy applied for the treatment of Raynaud's diseases. The blood flow in the brachial artery was measured before and after sympathectomy as well as the temperature, haemoglobin concentration and oxyhaemoglobin saturation in arterial and venous blood, pH and PCO2 of the arterial blood.

Experimental remarks on leg ischemia following popliteal artery injuries.

Popliteal artery injuries are followed, in many cases, by amputation of the leg. Results after re-construction depend on the time of ischemia. In this experimental work 12 dogs with injury of the popliteal artery had a direct end to end anastomosis or an anastomosis using saphenous vein graft. Blood flow was checked by an electromagnetic flowmeter or ultrasounds, blood samples for Hb, oxyhaemoglobin saturation, Hct and ph were taken before and after operation. Changes in these values depend on the time elapsing between injury and re-establishment of circulation. Operative angiography was done in all dogs. Except in two dogs, no early or late thrombosis occurred. Three dogs required amputation. The outcome of the operation is related to the time elapsing between injury and restoration of circulation.
