The benefit of a single-passage perfusion with a hypertonic citrate solution on the cold ischemia tolerance of epigastric free flaps in Dark-Agouty rats.
In this study the effectiveness of a single-passage perfusion with hypertonic citrate solution on the cold ischemia tolerance in epigastric free flaps in Dark-Agouty rats was investigated. In the control group a significant decline in survival percentage was observed when the storage time was extended from 72 hours to 96 hours. A single (pressure controlled… (More)
