| pubmed-article:1377188 | pubmed:abstractText | The first follow-up control 5 days later (14.1.1990) showed a fresh capillary occlusion with massive red blood cell diapedesis. The arteriolar limb of the capillary is filled with erythrocytes up to the occlusion. Since capillary occlusion probably allowed some plasma flow at first, blood cells distal to the occlusion were washed away. After 53 days (8.3.1990) extravasal cells could no longer be made out. At the upper margin of the image a newly formed capillary loop can be seen. The channel of the old capillary seemed to have disappeared. Seventy-three days after occlusion, on 28th of March, the tip of the capillary, already demonstrated on 8th of March, had further grown distally. The capillary had crossed the neighbouring diagonal capillary. Twelve days later (9.4.1990) a remarkable growth connected with formation of a collateral was observed. The new capillary grew in direction of the former capillary channel. On 22nd of April the new capillary had almost got back to its old form. The collateral vessel formed on 9th of April had also grown and could be well distinguished. The different branches were immediately well perfused (mean erythrocyte velocity is v = 0.74 mm/s). The capillary were growing at different speeds. The new capillary had visibly grown by 220 microns over a period of 47 days which corresponds to an average growth of 4.7 microns a day. The capillary was growing fastest between the 9th and 22nd of April. A minimum of growth of 2 microns was observed within the first 11 days of the observation period. | lld:pubmed |
