Background. Iron chelators have been reported to interfere with inflammatory cells and possibly enhance vascular growth factor expression. The objective of this study was to investigate the efficacy of the iron chelator deferoxamine mesylate in preventing skeletal muscle ischemia. Methods. The latissimus dorsi muscle (LDM) was mobilized in 20 adult sheep. Two separate pockets were created in each sheep. Autologous fibrin sealant with or without 100 mg/mL of deferoxamine mesylate (10 pockets) was added to the pockets. Deferoxamine mesylate alone was also applied to another 10 pockets, whereas the 10 other pockets served as controls. Results. Conventional, indirect immunofluorescent enface staining showed that in nonmobilized, nonischemic LDM the capillary density was 196 +/- 14 capillaries/mm(2) in the distal. and 207 +/- 19 capillaries/mm(2) in the middle part. After severe ischemic shock (subtotal mobilization), the muscle did not recover completely even after 2 months (149 +/- 15 capillaries/mm(2) in the distal part and 177 +/- 16 capillaries/mm(2) in the middle part of the LDW). Fibrin application only increased muscle neovascularization. The number of capillaries per mm(2) of muscle increased to 250 +/- 25 in the distal part and to 271 +/- 24 in the middle part of the LDM. However, when fibrin was applied with added deferoxamine mesylate, the capillary density increased to 361 +/- 25 /mm(2) in the distal part (p < 0.05 vs fibrin only; controls) and to 401 +/- 20 capillarieS/MM2 in the middle part of the LDM (p < 0.05 vs fibrin only and p < 0.001 vs controls). The data are concordant with the blood flow estimation before and after mobilization (severe ischemic shock) in the different parts of the LDM. Conclusions. Local application of deferoxamine mesylate enhances neovascularization and recovery of surgically induced skeletal muscle ischemia in a sheep model. (C) 2003 by The Society of Thoracic Surgeons.
