Purpose To compare 5-year survival of lung transplant (LTx) recipients in donation after
circulatory death (DCD) versus donation after brain-death (DBD) donors. Methods We …

Objective Lung transplantation is hampered by the lack of organs resulting in deaths on the
waiting list. The usage of donation after circulatory death (DCD) lungs would dramatically …

Donation after circulatory death (DCD) is an underused source of donor lungs.
Normothermic cellular ex vivo lung perfusion (EVLP) is effective in preserving standard …

Donation after circulatory death (DCD) is an accepted strategy to expand the potential donor
pool. The complexity of organ procurement from DCD donors requires the development of …

Purpose Lungs from brain dead (DBD) and donation after circulatory death (DCD) donors
are very susceptible to acute injury often rendering them unusable. Ex-vivo lung perfusion …

Combining simultaneously lung and liver procurement in controlled donation after
circulatory death (cDCD) using normothermic abdominal perfusion (NRP) for abdominal …

Objective Donation after circulatory death (DCD) procurement and transplantation after
thoracoabdominal normothermic regional perfusion (TA-NRP) remains a novel technique to …

Donation after circulatory death (DCD) heart procurement is done using either direct
procurement (DP) or thoracoabdominal normothermic machine perfusion (TA-NRP). Both …

Background. The clinical limits and most relevant definition of warm ischemic time (WIT) for
donation after cardiac death (DCD) donor lungs are unclear. Methods. Prospectively …

Background Lung transplantation remains the only treatment for end-stage lung disease.
Availability of suitable lungs does not parallel this growing trend. Centers using donation …
