Liver transplantation has become an immense success; nevertheless, far more recipients
are registered on waiting lists than there are available donor livers for transplantation. High …

MP adds a further element of complexity in the process of assessing the quality of a liver
graft. Understanding the physiology of the parameters included in the different assessment …

Despite the increased usage of livers from donation after circulatory death (DCD) donors in
the last decade, many patients remaining on the waitlist who need a liver transplant. Recent …

In recent years, significant progress has been made in the field of liver machine perfusion.
Many large transplant centers have implemented machine perfusion strategies in their …

Background Subnormothermic machine perfusion (SNMP) of liver grafts is currently less
clinically developed than normothermic and hypothermic approaches, but may have …

Background: The persistent challenge of organ scarcity in liver transplantation leads to an
escalating dependence on organs obtained from extended criteria donors (ECD) …

Livers from donations after circulatory death (DCDs) are very sensitive to
ischemia/reperfusion injury and thus need careful reconditioning, such as normothermic …

Organ quality can be assessed prior to transplantation, during normothermic machine
perfusion (NMP) of the liver. Evaluation of mitochondrial function by high-resolution …

Normothermic machine perfusion (NMP) is a novel method of organ preservation that has
recently risen in prominence. NMP involves the maintenance of an organ outside the body in …

We read with interest the paper by Kesseli et al.,(1) which uses a primate nontransplant
model to assess markers of nonviability of donation after circulatory death (DCD) livers …
