Micro-RNA-regulated proangiogenic signaling in arteriovenous loops in patients with combined vascular and soft-tissue reconstructions: revisiting the nutrient flap concept
Background:The placement of arteriovenous loops can enable microvascular anastomoses of free flaps when recipient vessels are scarce. In animal models, elevated fluid shear stress in arteriovenous loops promotes neoangiogenesis. Anecdotal reports in patients indicate that vein grafts used in free fl
