Methods： 50 New Zealand rabbits were randomly divided into 5 groups（postoperative 1 d, 3 d, 7 d, 14 d, 56 d, n = 10）. Femoral artery was harvested and end-to-side anastomosed with carotid in order to build the auto-extremity arterial graft animal model. On the postoperative 1^st, 35^nd, 7^th, 14th and 56^th days, grafts for morphometric analysis under the Image analysis system were obtained; and electron microscope was scanned to observe endothelial cells. In addition, Immunostaining of sections were performed with the mouse monoclonal antibody of the a -smooth muscle isoform of actin and proliferating cell nuclear antigen antibody. Results： Overall patency rate for all conduits was 86%.The intimal hyperplasia was first observed in the 7^th day group, and continued to increase in the 56^th day group（183.21 ± 111.74） μ m, P 〈 0.01. Additionally, the luminal narrowed（32.43 ± 18.28）% in the 56^th day group. Smooth muscle cells were the mainly hyperplastic components. The most active proliferation of cells was detected in the 14^th day group, where the extracellular matrix gradually deposited in the intima. Conclusion： Moderate intimal hyperplasia occurred in arterial conduits and vascular structure experienced constrictive remodeling after auto-transplantation.展开更多
