[The significance of blood vessels on both sides of the growth plate].
A new 3-D presentation of the whole vasculature of the epiphyseal growth plate clearly allows for a distinction between arterial and venous sections of the blood circulation. Histological investigations using these processing methods could neither prove the connection between epiphyseal and metaphyseal vessels through the growth plate in newborns nor the concept of an arterial epiphyseal blood supply of the growth plate presented by Trueta. It is rather a question of an arterial metaphyseal perfusion and an epiphyseal venous drainage system.
