Establishing a best practice for the freeze-thaw cycle of cryopreservation to approximate living muscle, joint, and associated soft tissue properties in cadaveric upper limbs
It was concluded that for ideal thawing, fresh-frozen cadaveric upper limbs should be thawed for 2 h after 48 h of refrigeration, permitting surgical simulation for 4 h after thawing, though potentially for 6 h.
