Abstract

Since the development of microsurgical techniques enables the immediate reestablishment of blood circulation in a transplanted muscle by microvascular anastomoses, a number of problems of free muscle transplantation may possibly be overcome.

This study was supported by the “Fonds zur Förderung der Wissenschaftlichen Forschung in Österreich” (Project 2618) and by the Jubiläumsfonds der Oesterreichischen Nationalbank (Project 1691).
