Efficacy of hyaluronidase in treating calcium hydroxylapatite-induced arterial occlusion: an experimental study using the leporine auricular artery as a model
Introduction. Hyaluronidase "melts" hyaluronic acid (HA); no such antidote exists for calcium hydroxylapatite (CaHA). Experimental evidence demonstrating efficacy of hyaluronidase in treating arterial compromise due to CaHA is lacking. N...
