Özet
Wound healing re-provides the morphological integrity after trauma. We investigated the effects of Metoclopramide and Ranitidine on survival of flat template McFarlane skin flaps in an experimental wound healing model. Rats (n:32) were randomly allocated in following groups: Flap control (Control), Metoclopramide(MET), Ranitidine(RAN) and Metoclopramide+Ranitidine (MET+RAN). After flap elevation, ip 10 mg/kg Ranitidin or 5 mg/kg Metoclopramide or the combination of both drugs were administered for 3 days. Next analgesia was maintained. No additional drugs were used for controls. On 10th day, whole cut skin flaps were excised, fixed in buffered formaldehyde and processed with histological techniques. Paraffine sections were stained with Hematoxylen-Eosin, Mallory-Azan and immunohistochemically with Desmin and Fibronectin and then evaluated with light microscopy. Experimental groups showed differences for epidermal degeneration, edema, hypertrophy of the hair follicles, neutrophil infiltration and areolar degeneration. Metoclopramide or Ranitidine administration positively impacts wound healing. This unique study emphasizes the importance of considering Metoclopramide or Ranitidine for possible adverse effects on flap survival in surgical clinics, therefore the combination of both drugs is not more effective. © Georg Thieme Verlag KG Stuttgart, New York.
