Summary:The pathway of leukocyte extravasation in experimentally induced acute pulpitis in dog teeth was investigated using light microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, freeze-fracture, and corrosion resin casts examined under a scanning electron microscope. Leukocytes emigrate from the lumen of the vessel through the intercellular junction of the endothelium primarily in the venular network located in the center of the pulp. Once complete passage through the vessel into the interstitial space is made, the leukocytes travel into the perivascular connective tissue and beyond.
