background one of the main challenges in skin flap surgery is tissue ischemia and following necrosis. the present study compares the effects of fibroblast growth factors 1 and 2 on increasing cutaneous vasculature, improving ischemia, and preventing distal necrosis in ischemic skin flaps in rat model. methods thirty rats were allocated into 3 groups (n=10) and 2×8 cm dorsal random-pattern skin ...

objective: morphological changes of ca1 neurons in rat hippocampus after transient and permanent focal cerebral ischemia were studied to clarify the nature of postischemic cell death in the subfield. materials and methods: male adult rats were divided into 3 groups: control (shamoperated), transient ischemic group (30 minutes of mcao followed by 48 hours of reperfusion), and permanent ischemic ...

isolated common hepatic artery branch thrombosis with severe gastric ischemia and duodenojejunal infarction is a rare condition; it usually presents with acute abdomen and may be associated with underlying thrombotic risk factors. we present a 35-year-old man admitted to our hospital with five days history of sudden abdominal pain and deteriorating epigastric pain. he was a driver and had no an...

Introduction: There are several different molecular pathways in tissue damage by Ischemic Brain Injury. The use of antioxidants and free radical scavengers are a matter of attention by some researchers. Crocus sativus (saffron) is used previously for protective effects in ischemia state by some researchers. To assess pathologic aspects of neuroprotection of saffron in some susceptible brain are...

BACKGROUND As the tongue is a well-vascularized organ, ischemic necrosis of the tongue is a rare disease entity. Critically ill patients with profound shock may experience end-organ hypoperfusion, which might result in tongue necrosis. However, to our best knowledge, there are no reports regarding ischemic necrosis of the tongue in surgical patients with septic shock. CASE PRESENTATION Two pa...

CASE DESCRIPTION A 6-year-old neutered female mixed-breed dog was evaluated because of a 6-week history of left forelimb lameness that varied in severity. CLINICAL FINDINGS Radiography revealed expansile and lytic changes of the left accessory carpal bone (ACB). Results of histologic evaluation of ACB core biopsy specimens indicated areas of bone necrosis. The entire left ACB was excised and ...
