Sebaceous glands produce sebum that contains: triglycerides, esters of cholesterol, and sometimes even pure cholesterol, squalene and esters of wax. Microvascular transplantation exposed the tissue of free flaps to the temporary ischemia and anaerobic metabolism, inflammatory, denervative and reinnervative processes. The sebaceous glands of the free flaps were also exposed to the action of physiopathologic processes during the micro vascular transfer. Because of that, the function of the sebaceous glands of the transplanted free flaps was estimated compared to the function of the sebaceous glands of the recipients and donor's region environment. The investigation of the sebaceous glands of free flaps function has been performed in 32 wounded patients at the Clinic for Plastic Surgery and Burns, and Institute for Medical Biochemistry of the Military Medical Academy. All the wounded have undergone the microvascular transplantation of the cutaneous, myocutaneous and osteocutaneous flaps. Dry residue in either of the soluble substances was measured in the period from six to thirty six months after the transplantation. The obtained results indicated that the function of the sebaceous glands of the transferred flaps 25.36 months after the transplantation was weaker than the function of the sebaceous glands of the recipients and donor's region's environment and amounted to 98% of the function of the sebaceous glands of the recipient is region's environment.
