Abstract
In a group of rats with transected sciatic nerve, ischemia of the operated limb produced by femoral artery ligation was found to result in an accelerated onset and increased severity of autotomy as compared to a similar group of rats without ischemia. Biomicroscopic examination of the mesenteric microcirculation showed that the ischemia also intensified disturbances of the terminal blood flow, made the venules more permeable, and increased the percentage of degranulated mast cells. The possible mechanisms by which ischemia promotes the development of chronic pain syndromes are discussed.
