Infection in prosthetic material [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Surgical site infection (SSI) occurs when a wound created as part of a surgical procedure becomes infected. SSI is one of the most common healthcare-associated infections and occurs in approximately 5% of patients undergoing a surgical procedure. SSI may

Engineered vascularized bone grafts [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2010
Clinical protocols utilize bone marrow to seed synthetic and decellularized allogeneic bone grafts for enhancement of scaffold remodeling and fusion. Marrow-derived cytokines induce host neovascularization at the graft surface, but hypoxic conditions cause cell death at the core.

Efficacy of non-obstructive aortic angioscopy for detecting a thoracic aortic graft rupture: a case report

open access: yesSurgical Case Reports, 2022
Background Non-anastomotic thoracic aortic graft rupture is extremely rare and difficult to diagnose. Non-obstructive general angioscopy can help monitor the aortic intima and detect the locations of abnormal findings, while aortic angioscopy can detect ...

Endothelialization and smooth muscle cell regeneration capabilities of a bi-layered small diameter vascular graft for blood vessel reconstruction

open access: yesMaterials & Design, 2023
Despite the tremendous advances in the past few decades, the clinical problems associated with low mechanical strength, thrombosis, and inadequate endothelialization still have not been improved in small diameter vascular grafts.

The UW solution for canine kidney preservation: Its specific effect on renal hemodynamics and microvasculature [PDF]

open access: yes, 1989
The preservation effects of UW solution on renal hemodynamics and microvascular systems were studied in canine kidney autografts. In 72-hr UW-preserved kidneys, the microvessels of both cortex and medulla were completely visualized with silicon rubber ...

The vasculature and its role in the damaged and healing tendon [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
Tendon pathology has many manifestations, from spontaneous rupture to chronic tendinitis or tendinosis; the etiology and pathology of each are very different, and poorly understood. Tendon is a comparatively poorly vascularised tissue that relies heavily
