Area of Science:

  • Veterinary Surgery
  • Experimental Surgery
  • Microsurgery

Background:

  • Vascular anastomosis is crucial in experimental surgery.
  • Existing microsurgical techniques can be complex and time-consuming.
  • A need exists for simpler, reliable methods for arterial connection in research.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To describe a novel microsurgical technique for end-to-end arterial anastomosis in rats.
  • To evaluate the efficacy and complication rate of this new technique.
  • To present this method as a potential alternative to established vascular microanastomosis procedures.

Main Methods:

  • A microsurgical technique involving intussusception of the afferent vessel into the efferent vessel.
  • Securing the vessels with a horizontal U-shaped stitch.

  • Application in a series of twelve arterial anastomosis procedures in rats.

    • Main Results:

    • The technique was applied in twelve cases.
    • Hemorrhage occurred in two instances.
    • One case of postanastomotic aneurysm was observed.
    • A 75% success rate with no long-term complications was achieved.

    Conclusions:

    • The described microsurgical technique is simple and rapid.
    • It demonstrates a low complication rate, making it a viable alternative.
    • This method is suitable for arterial anastomosis in experimental surgical settings.
