β¦ Synopsis
In this study we compared the invagination technique with the commonly used end-to-side anastomosis. A total of 30 invaginations and 30 end-to-side anastomoses was performed randomly in 30 Wistar rats. We checked the patency of the anastomoses 4 months after operation by macroscopic examination, spermiogram, methylene blue injection, and X-radiography studies as well as histology. The examination of the anastomoses showed patency in 19 (63.2%) compared with 24 patent invaginations (80%). The introduction of the simple time-saving technique of invagination could be useful for clinical purposes, since it is easier to learn and to practise and might also improve the clinical results concerning the patency of anastomoses.

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.
The repercussions on the venous wall of the creation of 20 artero-venous anastomoses (AVA) between the femoral artery and vein of the rat have been evaluated. The rats were killed 7, 15, 30, and 90 days after AVA, and AVAs were examined by optical microscopy and by scanning electronic microscopy. De
In the last few decades, microsurgery has become a reliable technique in reconstructive surgery due to numerous technical and conceptual advances. End-to-side anastomosis is currently preferred by many microsurgeons. Many recent clinical and experimental studies showed no significant difference betw
## Abstract Thirty endβ toβ end (ETE) and 30 endβ inβ end (EIE) microvascular anastomoses were performed in the central arteries of the ear or the saphenous arteries of 30 rabbits (diameters: 0.8β 1.2 mm). The anastomoses were then examined angiographically at varying intervals postoperatively. The
A new technique for easier end-to-side anastomosis of veins is presented. By applying a few traction sutures to the edge of the venotomy and tenting the venous wall, thereby keeping the venotomy open, end-to-side anastomosis of the vein can be easily performed.
