In spite of the extensive experimental work on vascular washout in free flap surgery, an optimal temperature for the washout solution has not been established. This study was designed to determine the effect of the washout solution temperature on the degree to which the microcirculation is cleared o
## Abstract Extended groin flaps in rats were used to explore the relationship of time and temperature of ischemic storage to the ultimate survival of free flaps. The maximum period of ischemia with 100% survival was found to be six hours for storage at a normothermic range (20โ 25โ C) and 48 hours
