Microvascular transfers of latissimus dorsi and serratus anterior muscles in rats.

abstract：:Improved microsurgical techniques for kidney transplantation in the mouse are described. Left renal transplantation is performed with end-to-side anastomoses of the donor renal vein to the inferior vena cava and the donor aortic cuff to the aorta. Urinary tract reconstruction is accomplished by suturing the donor uret...
