Abstract
Prolonged ischaemia sometimes occurs in replantation and free flap surgery. The re-establishment of circulatory flow to the ischaemic tissue leads to a cascade of events which augments tissue necrosis. This paper reviews the pathophysiology of this ischaemia-reperfusion injury and discusses different methods to modulate this injury.Entities:
