ResultsThe mean diameter of the lymphatic ducts was 0.61 mm, and the iliolumbar veins were 0.81 mm. On the other hand, the mean diameters of the 28 lymphatic ducts and veins of the 8 patients in whom we performed LVA were 0.58 and 0.76 mm, respectively. The differences in the diameters of the lymph vessels and veins between the rats and patients were not statistically significant.ConclusionsWe report on an LVA model involving the use of the lumbar lymphatic duct and iliolumbar veins of rats. The diameter, nature, and placement of the anastomosis using this model are very similar to that noted during real human surgery. We believe that our rat model will be useful as a practical training model for LVA and in studies on postoperative changes in LVA.
