Livers exposed to prolonged warm ischemia (WI), such as those from non-heart-beating donors (NHBDs), are at higher risk of primary graft nonfunction (PNF). In a pig model of liver transplantation (LTx) from NHBDs, hepatocellular vacuolation, focal hepatocyte dropout, congestion, and sinusoidal dilat

Normothermic preservation has been shown to be advantageous in an experimental model of preservation of non-heart-beating donor (NHBD) livers, which have undergone significant warm ischemic injury. The logistics of clinical organ retrieval might dictate a period of cold preservation prior to warm pe
Waiting lists for transplantation have stimulated interest in the use of non-heart-beating donor (NHBD) organs. Recent studies on organ preservation have shown advantages of machine perfusion (MP) over cold storage (CS). To supply the liver with specific nutrients during MP, the preservation solutio
