Influence of fibrin clots on development of granulation tissue in preformed cavities.
To examine the influence of fibrin clots, perforated Teflon cylinders have been implanted subcutaneously in rats. Fibrin clots made from both species specific fibrinogen and from an non-species specific preparation, together with ingrowing granulation tissue, kept the implanted cylinder filled during the four week study period. This was valid for both concentrations investigated. Interaction between granulation tissue and fibrin clot differed between the two fibrin types.
