The electrically induced thrombosis in the arteria femoralis of pig as a model for in-vivo studies.

Arterial thrombosis was experimentally induced in dwarf pigs by use of direct current, via an arterial electrode. The technique used for the experimental induction of thrombosis in pig is compared with that used in the dog. The effect of this experiment, which was performed under constant conditions, on some enzymes and some blood coagulation parameters is discussed.
