OBJECTIVE To investigate renal preservation by a novel method of perfusion using an
oxygenated perfluorocarbon (PFC) emulsion via retrograde access to the kidney, as …

Aim: There is still a lack of organs for transplantation purposes. In the field of kidney and liver
transplantation, one available solution is the use of organs from so-called marginal donors …

Retrograde persufflation of ischemic kidneys of dogs via the renal vein with gaseous O 2
was evaluated as a method of kidney preservation (retrograde aerobic ischemia) and …

Background/Aim: The global shortage of donor organs for transplantation has necessitated
the expansion of the organ pool through increased use of organs from less ideal donors …

In search for new techniques of renal preservation, kidneys were persufflated in situ with
gaseous O 2 at a pressure of 90–100 mm Hg via their vascular system (orthograde aerobic …

Acute renal ischemia is an infrequently encountered clinical entity with occasionally
devastating consequences. The renal compensation to acute ischemia is unknown and is …

This study was carried out in order to examine whether the severity of acute renal failure
observed during the four hours following a 45 min period of unilateral occlusion of the renal …

Background. The study compares urine recirculation (URC) to urine replacement (UR) with
Ringer's lactate in a porcine normothermic kidney machine perfusion (NMP) model using a …

Acute kidney injury is usually associated with distant organ dysfunction. The roles of
inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) and reactive oxygen species (ROS) in this …

Canine kidneys were briefly perfused with Ross and Marshall's hypertonic citrate solution
and stored at 0 C. This study concerns the effect, during such storage, of insufflating various …
