Appearance of the gastrocnemius muscle in the ischemia-reperfusion group: edema between muscle fibers (arrow head), leukocyte infiltration (arrow), congestion in capillaries and hemorrhage (star) (H&E staining, bar 200 μm), leukocyte infiltration between muscle fibers (arrow), congestion in capillaries (star) (H&E staining, bar 10 μm), loss of striation in muscle fibers, cellular swelling and necrosis (arrow head), edema between muscle fibers (star), leukocyte infiltration, fibrosis, congestion in capillaries (arrow) (H&E staining, bar 100 μm), leukocyte infiltration (arrow head), fibrosis (star), and congestion in capillaries (arrow) (H&E staining, bar 50 μm).
