Static and dynamic computerised radioactive tracer studies, vital dye staining and theoretical mathematical calculations to ascertain the mode of survival of single cephalad channel venous island flaps

TLDR
The experiments show that the single cephalad channel venous island flap is perfused by and drains through its single cEPhalad vein.

Role of perivenous areolar tissue in the viability of venous flaps: an experimental study on the inferior epigastric venous flap of the rat.

TL;DR: Histological examination of the pedicle showed that many minute vascular channels (single-cell-layered capillaries) were present apart from the inferior epigastric vein, confirming the importance of the perivenous areolar tissue in perfusion of the skin island, at least, in the inferiorEpigastic venous flap in the rat.

An arterialised venous flap using the long saphenous vein.

TL;DR: This flap has a larger skin territory than those previously reported and the incorporation of bone into such a flap has not been reported before.
Journal ArticleDOI

The saphenous venous flap

TL;DR: This clinical work is further confirmation that fasciocutaneous island flaps of fairly large dimensions, with a single cephalad vein, survive and can be used to cover defects in their adjacent areas.
Journal ArticleDOI

Intracapillary haemoglobin oxygenation and interstitial pO2 in venous flaps: an experimental study in rats.

TL;DR: The results show that the capillary system in all types of venous flaps is reached by some of the inflowing oxygenated haemoglobin over the entire flap surface to different degrees.
Journal ArticleDOI

Role of perivenous areolar tissue and recipient bed in the viability of venous flaps in the rabbit ear model

TL;DR: The importance of the perivenous areolar tissue in the perfusion of the venous skin flap in the rabbit ear model is confirmed and Histological examination of the pedicle showed small vascular channels present in theAreolar tissue surrounding the venOUS pedicle.

Dispersion of soluble matter in solvent flowing slowly through a tube

TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown analytically that the distribution of concentration produced in this way is centred on a point which moves with the mean speed of flow and is symmetrical about it in spite of the asymmetry of the flow.

Experimental studies in the survival of venous island flaps without arterial inflow.

TL;DR: The dog model was used to study the survival of venous flaps without arterial inflow both as island and free flaps, and observations suggest that capillary diffusion can occur without the continuous flow of blood through a capillary.
