On the blood supply of muscle-pedicled bone: an experimental study.
In an attempt to evaluate the vascular pathophysiology of muscle-pedicled tubular bone, continuous measurements of the intraosseous perfusion pressure together with simultaneous recording by mass spectrometry of the intramedullary partial pressures of the respiratory gases have been carried out in a series of dogs, using the femur attached to the adductor muscle as an experimental model. The data obtained are presented and commented upon.
