Background The use of grafts from donors after cardiac death (DCD) would greatly
contribute to the expansion of the donor organ pool. However, the implementation of such a …

Background. In islet transplantation, the use of dynamic hypothermic preservation
techniques is a current challenge. This study compares the efficacy of 3 pancreas …

Hypothermic machine preservation (HMP) has been used in renal transplantation since the
late 1960s with recent robust prospective, multicenter data showing lower rates of delayed …

Successful pancreatic islet transplantation depends on the number of islets transplanted,
islet viability and extent of early islet loss due to ischaemia reperfusion injury. Novel …

Pancreas preservation by cold storage using University of Wisconsin solution was the
mainstay method used for pancreas transplantation during the past 2 decades. Other …

Introduction Chronic shortage of quality human cadaveric pancreata limits islet
transplantation. Porcine islet xenotransplantation is being explored to increase the donor …

Background Kidney and pancreatic transplants from controlled donation after circulatory
death donors are vulnerable to ischemia-reperfusion injuries. In this context of transplant …

Background This study aimed to identify the most effective solution for in situ
perfusion/preservation of the pancreas in donation after brain death donors, in addition to …

Background Machine perfusion is increasingly utilized in liver transplantation to face the
detrimental consequences of the use of extended-criteria donors. Hypothermic oxygenated …

Introduction An ex vivo normothermic porcine pancreas perfusion (ENPPP) model was
established to investigate effects of machine perfusion pressures on graft preservation …
