Forty mature rabbit ears were completely amputated and stored by different methods for 24 hours and then replanted. This study suggests that there is no significant difference among conventional methods of storage as long as the part is not frozen or allowed to become normothermic for more than 2 hours. Equal viability rates in replantation surgery may be expected by storing the severed part by wrapping it in a cloth moistened in Ringer's lactate solution or normal saline and placing the packet on ice, or by total immersion of the severed part in either of these solutions contained in a plastic bag that is placed on ice. Undesirable freezing is less likely to occur by the immersion method.

Background: To evaluate the biosafety, reduction in anterior capsule opacification, and fluctuation in intraocular pressure (IOP) of a new phakic refractive lens (PRL) with a sinusoidal drainage groove design.
Methods: This self-controlled experiment was performed on eight eyes of four rabbits. Each rabbit was implanted with a sinusoidal PRL (PRL-S5) in the right eye and a conventional posterior chamber PRL (PC-PRL) in the left eye.

Purpose: We aimed to characterize and further understand CSF circulation and outflow of rabbits. To our knowledge, there is no research on contrast material-enhanced MR cisternography (CE-MRC) with T1 and T2 mapping in the rabbit model using a clinical 3-T MR unit without a stereotaxic frame.
Materials And Methods: Twenty-one rabbits were included in the study.

Background: Multiple methods have been used to treat hypertrophic scarring; however, an optimal treatment method remains to be established. We aimed to research and compare the effects of cell-free fat extract (CEFFE) and platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) on hypertrophic scar formation based on histomorphological analysis in this study.
Methods: Twelve rabbits were divided into four groups randomly.

Poly(L-lactic acid) (PLLA) and poly(D,L-lactic acid) (PDLLA) particles have been applied as dermal fillers for soft-tissue augmentation because they can induce foreign-body reactions, resulting in fibroblast proliferation and collagen formation. Although PLLA and PDLLA fillers are safe and biocompatible, clinical complications such as nodules and granulomas have been reported, possibly due to incomplete reconstitution. PDLLA particles were prepared via emulsification in this study, and three stirring speeds were investigated when adding PDLLA into carboxymethyl cellulose solution.

Rabbits are subjected to challenges that induce stress and require them to continuously adapt. Veterinary procedures represent an important source of stress. In other pets, pheromone use was shown to help patients better cope with these procedures.
