Abstract:
During periods of transplant organ shortage, techniques designed to "salvage" transplants must be developed. The authors report three cases of renal harvesting from donors in cardiac arrest, in which the use of in situ perfusion-cooling with transfemoral introduction of Gillot's catheter resulted in six good quality transplants. The indications, surgical technique, alternatives and results are discussed.
