The primary objective of organ preservation is to deliver a viable graft with minimal risk of
impaired postoperative graft function. In current clinical practice, preservation of transplanted …

The quality of organ preservation is critical to the outcome of transplantation: preservation
technology is a limiting factor in the further development in the use of marginal donor …

Maintaining organ viability after donation until transplantation is critically important for
optimal graft function and survival. To date, static cold storage is the most widely used form …

Organ transplantation is still affected by a notable degree of preservation-associated
ischemia and reperfusion injury, which can seriously hamper early graft function. The …

Most organs are currently preserved by cold storage (CS) prior to transplantation. However,
as more so called marginal donor organs are utilized, machine perfusion has regained …

Hypothermic perfusion preservation (HPP) was an integral step in the development of early
clinical transplantation programmes, and considerable progress was made in understanding …

Organ transplantation has developed over the past 50 years to reach the sophisticated and
integrated clinical service of today through several advances in science. One of the most …

Organ preservation and re‐conditioning using machine perfusion technologies continue to
generate promising results in terms of viability assessment, organ utilization and improved …

Pathophysiological changes that occur during ischemia and subsequent reperfusion cause
damage to tissues procured for transplantation and also affect long-term allograft function …

The past decade has been the foreground for a radical revolution in the field of preservation
in abdominal organ transplantation. Perfusion has increasingly replaced static cold storage …
