Liver Transplantation Machine Perfusion Extended Criteria Donors

ClinConnect Summary

With the increasing shortage of suitable donor livers for transplantation, extended criteria donor (ECD) livers may bridge the gap between available donor organs and donor livers needed. However, these ECD livers are associated with a higher risk of posttransplant complications. With the development of machine perfusion (MP) strategies over the recent years, (dual) hypothermic oxygenated perfusion ((D)HOPE) is established as a safe and effective way to reduce ischemia reperfusion injury. This leads to a decrease in early allograft dysfunction and non-anastomotic biliary strictures (NAS). On...
