Superficial ulnar artery: embryology, case report, and clinical significance in reconstructive microsurgery.

Abstract:

:In this paper the authors describe and illustrate a rare anatomic variation of the ulnar artery, a superficial ulnar artery. The possible embryologic events responsible for this variation are discussed. In addition, they describe the surgical considerations that should be kept in mind when this abnormality is encountered in the clinical setting of free-tissue transfer and vascularized nerve grafting.

  • Prolonging survival in vascularized bone allograft transplantation: developing specific immune unresponsiveness.

    abstract::Vascularized bone allografts (VBAs) could be useful adjuncts to the clinical reconstructive surgeon's arsenal. These grafts are known experimentally to be subject to host rejection. One way to control the rejection problem would be to develop specific immune unresponsiveness via host conditioning. Using a proven relia...
