The success of organ transplantation has precipitated the paucity of organs needed to facilitate proper treatment. Renewed interest in different ways of increasing the pool of organs has grown, such as organ preservation. Classical methods employed currently lead to different grades of ischemic injury.

Produktbeschreibung
The success of organ transplantation has precipitated the paucity of organs needed to facilitate proper treatment. Renewed interest in different ways of increasing the pool of organs has grown, such as organ preservation. Classical methods employed currently lead to different grades of ischemic injury. This volume compile a large work focused on investigate whether preservation of the isolated liver by normothermic machine perfusion is a viable option and whether it offers advantages over cold storage for liver preservation. The study clearly demonstrates the superiority of normothermic preservation as reflected on metabolic, physical and histological issues. The potentials of this model is not limited to preservation, been employed as support for patients in hepatic failure, as tool for immunological preconditioning or high doses of chemotherapy and antiviral treatment. In addition, physiological studies can now be undertaken with a precision not previously possible. This book, therefore, should be especially useful to medical professionals interested in the clinical and research fields of Surgery, Transplantation, Oncology, Hepatology, Immunology, Intensive Care and Physiology.
