Abstract
Oxygen partial pressure measurements in living tissue with needle probes inevitably lead to tissue alterations. The recent introduction of microprobe based pO2 measuring methods for clinical applications (Weiss and Fleckenstein, 1986) has invigorated research addressing the influence of anaesthetic gases on liver oxygen partial pressure distribution. Thus far, histological changes due to the penetration of this pO2 probe have been studied in skeletal muscle by Schramm et al. (1990).
