The effect of specimen preparation on post-excision and post-fixation dimensions, translation, and distortion of canine cadaver skin-muscle-fascia specimens

Veterinary Surgery, 45(5), 563–570.

MeSH headings : Animals; Cadaver; Dermatologic Surgical Procedures / veterinary; Dog Diseases / pathology; Dog Diseases / surgery; Dogs; Fasciotomy / veterinary; Muscles / surgery; Skin Neoplasms / surgery; Skin Neoplasms / veterinary; Specimen Handling / methods; Specimen Handling / veterinary; Suture Techniques / veterinary
