Processess of revascularization between the jejunal submucosal vessel and implanted epiploic vascular pedicle.

Revascularization between the proper submucosal vessels of the jejunum and the epiploic vessels implanted in the submucosal layer of the jejunum was experimentally studied by a panoramic montage technique of micro-angiograms in dogs. A vascular network was found between the implanted epiploic vessel and the submucosal vessels of the jejunum two weeks after the operation and the anastomosis was completed six weeks after the operation. The communicating blood vessels transformed themselves into a "fork" shape.
