pubmed:abstractText
The authors studied the effect of ligation of the femoral and saphenous veins on the evolution of lipase injection-induced subcutaneous fibrosis and inflammation in the rats' hindlimbs. The superficial muscular fascia was thickened and the number of veins was increased 3 days and 3 weeks after vein ligation; both abnormalities disappeared 6 weeks postoperatively. Vein ligation did not quantitatively affect fascial thickening or fibrosing panniculitis in hindlimbs injected with lipase 6 weeks prior to sacrifice. The results contradict the proposition that lipase-induced injury of rats' subcutaneous tissues compromised by venous stasis may lead to a persistent chronic inflammation and fibrosis of the subcutaneous-fascial complex duplicating lipodermatosclerosis in man.
