Abstract:While machine preservation reduces the incidence of delayed graft function in renal transplant recipients, it is only used in 10% of kidney transplantations. The performance of our portable, low-flow-pulsatile organ perfusion system was examined in a canine kidney autotransplantation model. Grafts were stored for 72 h by simple cold preservation in University of Wisconsin (UW) solution, or by high or low-flow machine preservation After preservation, the grafts were autotransplanted and the animals were followe… Show more
