Abstract The American Society of Transplant Surgeons supports efforts to increase the
number of organs that are critically needed for patients desperately awaiting transplantation …

Donor organs are exposed to sequential temperature changes during the transplantation
process. The role of donor warm ischemia and cold ischemia times on post-transplant …

Introduction Transplantation of right kidneys can pose technical challenges due to the short
right renal vein. Whether this results in inferior outcomes remains controversial. Method …

We aimed to assess the effect of donor pancreas extraction time (ET) on postoperative
complications and graft function after pancreas transplantation (PT). We analyzed all …

Background. In The Netherlands, 60% of deceased-donor kidney offers are after donation
after circulatory death. Cold and warm ischemia times are known risk factors for delayed …

The strategies reviewed in this manuscript may inform clinical decision-making, preoperative
coordination between thoracic and abdominal procurement teams, and surgical technique …

In this study, 10 years of procurement quality monitoring data were analyzed to identify
potential risk factors associated with procurement-related injury and their association with …

Kidney extraction time has a detrimental effect on post-transplantation outcome. This study
aims to improve the flush-out and potentially decrease ischemic injury by the addition of …

BACKGROUND: At every stage in the transplantation process for a deceased-donor kidney,
time means ischemia. Donation after circulatory death (DCD) kidneys are already subject to …

Main Problem: Following cold aortic flush in a deceased organ donation procedure, kidneys
never reach the intended 0–4° C and stay ischemic at around 20° C in the donor's body until …
