Summary
In this experiment vascular anastomotic allotransplantation of rabbit omentum preserved in SackI solution hypothermically for 24–48 hours covered with free skin autograft brought about an excellent result for repairment of certain ischemic wound surfaces. The omentum, which is a thin tissue slice and tolerates ischemia very well, can be conveniently preserved and may be expected to be preserved in bank, so that this method may be broadly applied in clinical practice in the near future.
