Short communication: distal adrenergic innervation remains normal after perivascular sympathectomy.

abstract：:Studies of lymphatic and venous pressures of normal and lymphedematous rabbit ears reveal the end pressure of lymphatics to be higher than the venous pressure. Massage of the related rabbit ear increases the lymphatic pressures and can markedly raise the side and end pressures within the lymphatic wall. The venous pre...
