[Morphologic and morphometric characteristics of the femoral head in experimental necrosis and after incomplete occlusion of the femoral artery].

Partial occlusion (by 70-80%) of the femoral artery (FA) below its bifurcation with the deep femoral one was created in 15 dogs 6 months after modeling of aseptic necrosis of femoral head (FH). The dynamics of local circulation was evaluated using the methods of hydrogen clearance, angiography, flowmetry, polarography and mingography. FA and neighboring vessels as well as FH bone tissue were studied using histological, histochemical and morphometric methods.
