A synthetic, monofilament, slowly absorbing suture material, polyglyconate suture was tested to determine its suitability for use in microarterial anastomoses under ordinary tension and under undue tension. Microvascular repair of 34 rat femoral arteries averaging 0.63 mm in diameter using 8-0 polyg

## Abstract A refined technique for continuous suturing of endβtoβend anastomoses is presented along with a study in which the continuousβsuture technique was compared with the standard interruptedβsuture technique in endβtoβend anastomoses in the femoral arteries of 20 rats. The results of this co
Microvascular anastomoses were performed on rat common carotid arteries using either continuous or interrupted sutures. The contralateral common carotid artery was ligated to create a demand situation. At 6 months, there was no statistically significant difference between the diameters of vessels an
The left carotid artery of 12 Sprague-Dawley rats was sectioned and anastomoses immediately performed utilizing a new technique termed coupled suturing. Patency and constriction were assessed immediately postoperatively and at 1, 2, and 3 weeks. Specimens were also evaluated by light microscopy and
