Microsurgical end‐to‐end anastomosis of the carotid artery of the rat is discussed. The continuous‐suture technique is found to be less time consuming than the interrupted‐suture technique. Comparison of the flow rate of each anastomosis doesn't reveal a marked difference. Patency rate of each technique is 100%.
