Multiple drugs have been used in experimental skin flap models to reduce the effects of reperfusion ischemia. The effects of antiproteases, however, have not been studied. A skin flap ischemia reperfusion model was developed in the rat to study the effects that aprotinin, a broad-spectrum antiserine

## Abstract Reperfusion injury by the abrupt restoration of circulation after the prolonged ischemia has been remained unsolved problem in the reconstructive microsurgery. We tested the hypothesis that a procedure of intermittent interruption of reperfusion, i.e., postconditioning (post‐con) attenu
## Abstract Early diagnosis of postoperative perfusion failure is essential in microsurgical tissue transfer. In order to determine if microdialysis could be used in diagnosing flap ischemia, we tested this method in an experimental pig model. Sixty‐six flaps (34 myocutaneous and 29 cutaneous) were
## Abstract The ability of nitric oxide (NO) synthase inhibitors to reduce ischemia‐induced skin flap necrosis was assessed using a modified McFarlane flap in the rat. Flap survival was significantly improved in L‐NIO treated (86 ± 2%), L‐NAME‐treated (84 ± 2%), and aminoguanidine‐treated (76 ± 2%)
## Abstract This study describes a rat abdominal skin flap model of in vivo microscopy which provides a reliable, easy to perform system in which to examine the microcirculation of flaps. The island flap, which is based on the superficial inferior epigastric vessels caudally, and drained proximally
## Abstract Although ischemia‐reperfusion (I/R) strongly influences muscle flap survival in reconstructive surgery, there is limited knowledge about its relation to hemorheological parameters and oxidative stress markers in flaps. In the present study we investigated these changes during I/R of lat
