ABSTRACT
The technique of lymphangioplasty or capillary thread drainage was historically performed with subcutaneously implanted surgical threads. It has recently been revived by introducing a thread-like aligned nanofibrillar collagen matrix (BioBridgetm). These collagen threads consitute subcutaneous neocollectors along which guided lymphangiogenesis is said to occur secondarily. We present for the first time a tissue examination of a 10-month implanted BioBridgetm sample with surrounding tissue from a human subject by histology, scanning and transmission electron microscopy.
