Abstract

troubleshooting XVIVO ex vivo perfusion lung transplant
Ex vivo perfusion is a safe and feasible method of assessing and using high-risk donor organs. We describe a case of successfully ex vivo treated and transplanted human lung allografts. Donor human lungs were assessed using ex vivo, our trouble shooting protocol allowed safe recovery. We successfully implanted our ex vivo treated organs.
