Effects of endothelial defects and venous interposition grafts on the acute incidence of thrombus formation within microvascular procedures

Abstract Endothelial defects (ED) and the usage of interposition vein grafts (IVG) are known risk factors for free flap failure. This experimental study aimed to compare both situations of thrombus formation and fluorescence angiographic behavior. Indocyanine green videoangiography (ICGVA) with the...
