Can Human Recombinant Epidermal Growth Factor Improve Ischemia and Induce Healing of Anastomosis in an Experimental Study in a Rabbit Model?
Purpose: Anastomotic leaks following intestinal operations may cause devastating effects on patients. Ischemia may also occur at the intestinal walls in the presence of strangulations. In this study, we examined the effects of human recombinant (Hr)-epidermal growth factor (EGF) given at a single in...
