Hyaluronic acid (HA) filler injection is commonly used for soft tissue augmentation. Uncommon but serious complication from filler injection is vascular occlusion. Hyaluronidase enzyme can be used to dissolve HA filler. Evidence demonstrates that hyaluronidase can penetrate through vessel wall after incubation. However, studies regarding effects of hyaluronidase on vessel wall after intraluminal injection are limited. The objective of this study is to evaluate histological changes of postmortem arteries after intravascular injection of hyaluronidase enzyme.
