Targeted focal therapy is a minimally invasive procedure designed to ablate tumor foci while minimizing collateral damage to maintain quality of life.
On the left limb the artery and vein were kept intact and freely dissected from the collateral vessels to maintain the flow-through model.
Collectively, the combination of rapid apoptotic cell clearance linked to suppression of immune activation allows apoptosis to proceed rapidly and efficiently with minimal collateral damage to maintain tissue homeostasis.
The circle of Willis is an important source of collateral blood flow to maintain adequate cerebral perfusion, particularly in the posterior circulation.
The circle of Willis is an important source of collateral blood flow to maintain adequate cerebral perfusion, in particular the posterior.
The PV cavernous transformation was preserved to maintain collateral flow as much as possible, as it was considered to originate from a congenital anomaly.
During right PV resection, the PV cavernous transformation was preserved to maintain collateral flow through the PV as much as possible (Fig. 3b).
Nearly a century ago, Thorstein Veblen noted 'trained incapacity', referring to acquired blind spots in professions or 'learned inability' to maintain a collateral vision due to extensive specialist training [ 4].
The ability to grow new capillaries, adapt their caliber to higher flow and develop collaterals from obstructed arteries is essential to maintain or restore tissue perfusion.
