Liver transplant program utilization of donation after circulatory death liver grafts by procurement technique and storage modality: a survey of US liver transplant surgical directors

We found variability among transplant programs in DCD liver graft acceptance based on procuring surgeon, procurement technique, and storage modality. Quality and cost are two main barriers to DCD liver utilization, with the main tradeoffs being between rapid recovery with static cold storage (lower cost, lower quality) and machine perfusion/normothermic regional perfusion (higher cost, better quality).

Abstract

We found variability among transplant programs in DCD liver graft acceptance based on procuring surgeon, procurement technique, and storage modality. Quality and cost are two main barriers to DCD liver utilization, with the main tradeoffs being between rapid recovery with static cold storage (lower cost, lower quality) and machine perfusion/normothermic regional perfusion (higher cost, better quality).
