Revascularization of fascia after tympanoplastic grafts. A study by fluorescein angiography.
By means of a special method of fluorescein angiography the vascularization of free fascial grafts was studied after tympanoplasty. The individual phases of vascular ingrowth are documented. Changes in the vascular patterns during the follow-up study strongly suggest severe postoperative alterations in the transplant.
