Significant Dysfunction of Kidney Grafts Exposed to Prolonged Warm Ischemia Is Minimized Through Normothermic Ex Vivo Kidney Perfusion

Background. Normothermic ex vivo kidney perfusion (NEVKP) is an emerging technique for renal graft preservation. We investigated whether NEVKP could improve early function of severely injured grafts and reduce the incidence of significant renal dysfunction (SRD) similar to delayed graft function in...
