Area of Science:

  • Organ transplantation
  • Surgical techniques
  • Organ preservation

Background:

  • Donor liver procurement is critical for successful transplantation.
  • Current methods may involve complex procedures and risks.
  • A need exists for efficient and safe procurement techniques.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To present a novel, rapid technique for donor liver procurement.
  • To detail the aortic perfusion only (APO) method.

Main Methods:

  • Cannulation of the aorta exclusively.
  • Perfusion of the donor liver with a chilled preservation solution via the aorta.

Main Results:

  • The APO technique yields donor liver of sufficient quality for successful engraftment.

  • Ensures the functional viability of the transplanted liver.

    • Conclusions:

    • Aortic perfusion only (APO) simplifies the operative procedure compared to dual cannulation.
    • Minimizes the risk of vascular structure injury.
    • Reduces the extent of necessary tissue dissection.
