Abstract

Alterio-venous fistulae were made in young growing pigs and lymphography was performed before and at regular intervals after operation. Animals were sacrificed at periods of two to six months. Small but consistent increases in limb growth resulted, but there was no change in the lymphatic vessels or nodes on lymphography or histological examination.
