Abstract: Background. Ischemia-reperfusion injury remains a primary concern in upper extremity transplantation. Ex vivo normothermic perfusion (EVNP) enables near-physiological organ preservation, avoiding the deleterious effects of hypoxia and cooling. We investigated the effectiveness of human limb… read more here.

DOI: 10.1097/tp.0000000000004046
Abstract: T he shortage of suitable donors for vascularized composite allotransplantations (VCAs) is exacerbated by inadequate tissue preservation methods. Revascularization within several hours of procurement is mandatory, dra-matically reducing the geographical radius for donor recruitment. Ex… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/aor.14442
Abstract: Abstract Purpose There are no established criteria for discontinuing ex vivo normothermic limb perfusion (EVNLP) before irreversible damage occurs. This study evaluates weight gain as an indicator of injury during EVNLP. Methods Sixteen Yorkshire pig… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/tri.13707
Abstract: A myocardial bridge (MB) in a donor heart is a relative contraindication to heart transplantation (HTx) (1). We have successfully transplanted a donor heart with a MB found at pre-donation coronarography employing ex-vivo perfusion with… read more here.

DOI: 10.1136/bcr-2021-245273
Abstract: Ex vivo normothermic perfusion (EVNP) is increasingly recognised as a viability tool to increase organ utilisation in deceased donor transplantation. We report the use of EVNP to assess graft perfusion quality following indication nephrectomy and… read more here.
