title: [Histological and histochemical evaluation of the cellular infiltration of s.c. implanted sparks prothesis. Experiments on rats (authors transl)].
abstract: Sparks-prothesis of 3 mm diameter were implanted into inbred rats and withdrawn after one to ten weeks. They were then fixed in Formalin and embedded in Paraffin and Metachrylat. After cutting (2.5 mu), the histological and histochemical parameters were examined. Cellular infiltration was studied after a certain period of time. The basic results of the genesis of that infiltration are given as follows: during the first two weeks following the s.c. implantation, derivates of monocytes (cells which play an imminent and important role during arterial replacement) were found. After the third and fourth week collagenous and elastic fibers could be seen, the connective tissue became stronger. The most favorable time for grafting can be evaluated by these experiments.
