[Blood microcirculation and angiogenesis in wound healing by first and second intentions]

Local reaction of the microvascular bed and angiogenesis of closed and infected open wounds have been studied in 72 rats. Selective contrasting of the functioning microvessels was achieved by means of intravenous injection of peroxidases, as tracers. The dynamics of microcirculatory disorders and the periods of capillary circulation recovery in the wound within 1-20 days after the injury were described. The principal resemblance of the alterations of the microvascular bed in closed and infected open wounds was established.
