Subcutaneous Implantation of Unidirectional Self-Inflating Anisotropic Tissue Expander Has No Effect on the Physiological Parameters and Behaviours of Horses
Abstract:The tissue expansion technique is one of the most important innovations in skin reconstructive surgery in human and veterinary medicine. This study investigated horses’ physiological and behavioural responses to subcutaneous implantation of a unidirectional self-inflating anisotropic tissue expander. The tissue expanders were subcutaneously implanted on six horses at three different locations: the frontal region of the head, the lateral side of the right shoulder, and the dorsomedial part of the cannon region … Show more
