✦ Synopsis

The patency rates of microsurgical end-to-end and end-toside anastomosis in the rat carotid artery were studied. Seventy end-to-end and seventy end-to-side arterial anastomoses, using 10-0 nylon interrupted sutures, were performed on 140 Sprague-Dawley rats. Findings indicated 100% patency in end-to-end as well as end-to-side immediately and 1 week post-anastomosis. This investigation suggests that there is no significant advantage between the methods studied based on vessel patency alone. The decision to perform an end-to-end vs. an end-to-side arterial anastomosis should be based upon the clinical circumstances encountered, since no significant difference in patency rates exists.

The ring technique for end-to-side microvascular anastomosis employs a resorbable polyglycolic acid ring to prevent stenosis and spasm at the anastomotic site. In 20 rats, the ring technique was compared with the conventional technique for constructing end-to-side anastomoses between the femoral (0.

## Abstract Creation of a smooth side wall arteriotomy for an end‐to‐side microsurgical anastomosis can at times be difficult and time consuming. To facilitate this maneuver, a new end‐to‐side microarteriotomy scissor was designed for creation of recipient vessel openings from 0.5–2 mm in size. The
