Functional assessment of donor-site morbidity after harvest of a fibula chimeric flap with a sheet of soleus muscle for mandibular composite defect reconstruction.

abstract：:Nitric oxide (NO) under basal conditions is an important regulator of vascular tone. Under ischemic conditions, however, NO can combine with superoxide anion to produce the damaging hydroxyl free radical. The current project observes the effect of inhibiting NO production (L-Nitro-amino-methyl-arginine, L-NAME) on fla...
