Abstract
Partial amputations of the hind legs were done in 44 rats. The femoral arteries and veins were repaired by microvascular techniques. The systemic use of heparin, the local use of magnesium sulfate, and the combined use of the two drugs, were evaluated as to their influence on preventing thrombosis in these microvascular anastomoses. No benefit could be demonstrated from the use of these drugs.Keywords
