The integration of a circulatory system into any tissue or organ utilizing oxygen permits a faster workrate and, more efficiency in terms of general body economy. Such integration, however, carries the accompanying threat of the consequence of sudden interruption in the local or general circulation. Organs that have acquired "specialization", at the cost of powers of regeneration, pay for such interruption, if prolonged, with permanent loss of function. Certain gross structural changes, in addition to the permanent functional loss, take place in the offended tissue.
