Area of Science:

  • Transplantation immunology
  • Organ preservation
  • Surgical innovation

Background:

  • End-stage liver disease necessitates liver transplantation as the sole effective treatment.
  • Current donor liver preservation methods (static cold storage, machine perfusion) have limited preservation times.
  • Limited preservation duration leads to donor liver wastage and restricted transplant opportunities.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review the latest experimental research on Supercooling Liver Preservation (SLP).
  • To highlight SLP as a novel technology for extending donor liver preservation time.
  • To discuss the potential of SLP to improve donor liver utilization and transplant outcomes.

Main Methods:

  • Supercooling Liver Preservation (SLP) utilizes cryoprotectants to maintain donor livers below -6°C.
