Macroscopic subcutaneous hematomas.

The table shows the number of mice, which were subjected to facial vein phlebotomy (FVP, N = 12) and retro-bulbar sinus puncture (RSP, N = 12), with visible sub-cutaneous hematomas at the site of blood sampling, as scored at gross necropsy. No overall difference was found between groups for the number of visible subcutaneous hematomas (Kruskal-Wallis H-test, p = 0.568). However, FVP mice had significantly more hematomas in the right cheek than in the left (Kruskal-Wallis H-test, p Macroscopic subcutaneous hematomas.
