Though so far, several histological studies on fibrin-glued microvascular anastomosis have been performed. We have noticed only one experimental angiographical study. The present study was designed to investigate the short term arterial patency of vascular end to end anastomosis not only histologically but also angiographically. Sixteen New Zealand type rabbits were used. The left femoral artery was used as a control which sutured with conventional microvascular suturing technique and the right was sutured with fibrin glue using fifty percent reduced suture number. At the first postoperative week fallowing the angiographic examination a histologic examination was also performed. VVe have found no patency difference betvveen the right and the left sides angiographically. Histological findings were similar betvveen the two sides.
