## Abstract Blood flow in vascularized bone transfers was evaluated in a canine model. Cortical bone blood flow was determined in undisturbed control bone, vascularized heterotopic bone transfers, and nonvascularized cortical bone grafts by means of the radionuclideβlabeled microsphere technique. F

β¦ Synopsis
We have refined the experimental canine vascularized fibula model in 26 dog experiments. Our results have demonstrated that both periosteal and endosteal blood flow are retained following end-to-end anastomosis of the bone graft pedicle artery and vein. The success of this model depends on detailed knowledge of the surgical anatomy and upon meticulous microvascular surgical technique.

The preventive and therapeutic effects of the tibio-fibular metaphyseal synostosis (T-F synostosis) against valgus ankle deformity, which is one of the postoperative donor-site problems, were ev
