Abstract
Autogenous arterial and venous grafts were used to bridge defects in the femoral arteries, aortas, and renal arteries of 40 Wistar rats in an effort to determine the feasibility of using such grafts in the treatment of renovascular hypertension. The longβterm results indicated that arterial grafts would be the most suitable in such a situation, but further study is needed before the technique can be applied clinically.

## Abstract Techniques for obtaining and implanting vein grafts in the femoral arteries of rats are described. Grafts 5 mm in length can be removed from the femoral vein without ligating any side branches; a 15βmm segment is the maximum graft that can be obtained from the femoral vein in a rat. Thi
The aim of this study was to establish the long-term biomechanical and histological properties of 2-octylcyanoacrylate-assisted microvascular anastomosis over conventional suture-only anastomosis in the laboratory rat model. The biomechanical and histological properties of three groups of vessels we
