Lack of effect of skin cycle on survival of experimental skin flaps in rats. 1976

B Myers, and W Donovan, and K Falterman

Skin flaps were raised in 83 rats. In 58 of them the skin cycle was determined before the flap was raised, and in 25 of them the flap was raised without regard to cycle. There was no significant difference in the surviving length of flaps raised in early anagen, midanagen, telogen, or in randomly selected animals.
