Improving Donor Organ Function—Cold to Warm Preservation

Author: Valluvan Jeevanandam

Published in: World Journal of Surgery | Issue 4/2010

Abstract

This paper explores the evolution of organ preservation methods from cold preservation to the more sophisticated method of warm preservation. Both methods are detailed, and the benefits and limitations of both methods are discussed.
