Despite improvements in short-term and long-term outcomes of liver transplant patients, the
discrepancy between the number of available livers and transplant candidates continues to …

The discrepancy between the number of patients awaiting liver transplantation and the
number of available donors has become a key issue in the transplant setting. There is a …

Normothermic machine perfusion (NMP) has emerged as a valuable tool in the preservation
of liver allografts before transplantation. Randomized trials have shown that replacing static …

Background Normothermic machine perfusion (NMP) can provide access to evaluate and
resuscitate high-risk donor livers before transplantation. The purpose of this study was to …

Abstract Purpose of Review This review aims to introduce the concept of normothermic
machine perfusion (NMP) and its role in liver transplantation. By discussing results from …

Machine perfusion (MP) preservation is potentially one of the most significant improvements
in the field of liver transplantation in the last 20 years, and it has been considered a …

Objective: Normothermic machine perfusion (NMP) enables optimized ex-vivo preservation
of a donor liver in a normal physiologic state. The impact of this emerging technology on …

NMP has resulted in increased organ utilization from marginal donors with acceptable
outcomes. The added flexibility of prolonged organ storage times has the potential to …

Persisting donor organ shortage has led to an increased use of suboptimal donor livers for
transplantation. Transplantation of these extended criteria donor (ECD) livers, however, is …

In the face of a critical organ shortage in the Western world, various strategies are employed
to expand the donor pool for orthotopic liver transplantation (OLT). Among them is the …
