Morphofunctional characteristics of hematologic/lymphatic interrelations in epicardium

Most data on hematologic/lymphatic interrelations in the heart have been obtained by means of interstitial injection of various stains, of Herot mass in particular. Low information value and numerous artifacts do not allow to consider the data on the heart intraorganic lymphatic bed obtained by this method to be significant. Being accepted by clinicians as “the ultimate truth” and used as the basis for remedial actions, they require a most thorough revision. The objective of the work is to obtain new data on hematologic/lymphatic interrelations in the epicardium of dogs (n=5) by means of the combined impregnation methods with the prior argyrophily of the intraorganic lymphatic microvessels wall.
