[Scanning electronic microscope observation of elastic fiber of anastomosed artery].

Objective: To observe the architecture of elastic fiber of anastomosed artery.

Methods: The right femoral arteries of 60 Wistar rats were cut off transversely and end-to-end anastomosis were performed. On the 3rd, 7th, 14th, 21st, 30th and 90th days after operation, the anastomosed artery segments were harvested and fixed by 10% formalin.
