## Abstract Free groin flaps taken from rats were preserved by refrigeration at 4Β°C in either lactated Ringers solution or tissue culture medium for various periods of time. The results indicate that a high survival rate can be expected at periods up to 72 hours, but there was no success in preserv

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 (20β 25β C) and 48 hours for storage at a hypothermic range (0β 5 C). This study confirms the findings of others that cooling of tissue increases the interval of ischemic storage in which composite tissue can withstand and still survive.
