Michel, Sebastian G. und Madsen, Joren C. (2016): Current perspectives in transplant medicine: hypothermic oxygenated perfusion. In: Transplant Research and Risk Management, Bd. 8: S. 25-30

Abstract

The purpose of this review was to provide an update on hypothermic oxygenated perfusion as a preservation technique for whole organ allografts. Clinical and experimental data in heart, lung, liver, kidney, and pancreas/islet transplantation are summarized with a special emphasis on marginal donors and donation after circulatory death. The rationale behind hypothermic machine perfusion as well as its advantages and disadvantages compared to conventional cold storage and the competing technique, normothermic machine perfusion, are reviewed.
