To investigate mechanisms of vascular morphogenesis in tissue repair, we performed ovariectomy with resection of the corresponding branches of the ovarian vessels in nude mice. This induces a vascular network remodeling response in the healing ovarian pedicle. Reconstruction of 2000 histological serial sections demonstrated that a new vascular network composed of venous-venous loops forms in the wall of the dilated ovarian vein. Preexisting veins of all sizes, including a branch of the main artery, are subjected to segmentation. Loop formation and segmentation are based on intussusceptive microvascular growth. Loop formation is followed by elongation. Loop remodeling occurs also by intussusception and results in the formation of compound loop systems. All loop systems observed were completely patent. Blind-ending sprouts were extremely rare. Anastomoses between the preexisting vessels subjected to segmentation and the loop systems were established to include the newly formed vessels into the preexisting vascular network. The formation of an increasing number of patent loop systems likely decreases hypoxia and subsequently arrests angiogenesis with transformation of the granulation tissue into a scar. Loop formation also occurred inside a large thrombus that occluded a part of the lumen of the main vein.
