title: Vascular microsurgical anastomosis in hypercholesterolemic rats: an experimental study.
abstract: Patency of vascular microanastomosis was examined in aging (6 months) and hypercholesterolemic rats, reproducing conditions similar to those occurring in human pathology. Results have been compared with those achieved in normocholesterolemic, younger (aging less than 8 weeks) rats.
