In a porcine liver transplant model, a brief period of oxygenated hypothermic machine
perfusion (HMP) at the end of simple cold storage (SCS) has been shown to improve the …

The success of liver transplantation has resulted in a dramatic organ shortage. In most
transplant regions 20-30% of patients on the waiting list for liver transplantation die without …

Objective: Transplantation of organs retrieved after cardiac arrest could increase the donor
organ supply. However, the combination of warm ischemia and cold preservation is highly …

The clinical boundaries of transplantation have been set in an era of simple cold storage.
Research in organ preservation has led to the development of flush solutions that buffer the …

The growing demand for donor organs requires measures to expand donor pool. Those
include extended criteria donors, such as elderly people, steatotic livers, donation after …

Dynamic preservation strategies such as hypothermic machine perfusion are increasingly
discussed to improve liver graft quality before transplantation. This review summarizes …

With great interest we have read the article by Xiaoshun He and colleagues regarding their
first patient who underwent successful ischemia-free organ transplantation (IFOT). 1 This …

Background. Hypothermic machine perfusion preservation (MPP) has the potential to relieve
the current donor shortage problem by providing superior preserved tissue and viable non …

Background A program of normothermic ex situ liver perfusion (NESLiP) was developed to
facilitate better assessment and use of marginal livers, while minimizing cold ischemia …

Organ transplantation is undergoing profound changes. Contraindications for donation have
been revised in order to better meet the organ demand. The use of lower-quality organs and …
