Popis: A long-term (27 months) experimental study in mice was designed to elucidate the origin and fate of grafted adipose cells at the recipient site. That cells originated from the donor rather than the recipient was suggested in certain cases but not clearly demonstrated. Presence of the dermis in dermo-fat grafts did not enhance the take. An important parameter of the graft survival was the vascular pattern of the transplant. Vascularization by a major artery seemed to ensure preservation of up to 75% of the volume of the graft.
