Microsurgical composite reconstruction in head and neck and esophagus.

abstract：:Morphometric evaluation of the fetal intestinal graft in the late post-transplant period was done by using C57BL/6 mice. Under anesthesia, after hysterotomy, a transversal laparotomy was done in the fetus to harvest all intestines. Grafts, cleaned from its mesentery, and divided were transplanted into the preperitoneu...
