Volumetric changes in transplanted vascularized fat flaps after ischemic or congestive stresses and their relationship to capillary density in a zucker fatty rat model

The aim of this study was to examine volumetric changes in fat flaps after stresses as well as their relationship with capillary density (CD) in a Zucker fatty rat model.
