End-ischemic reconditioning of liver allografts: Controlling the rewarming.

Different nonhypothermic preservation modalities have shown beneficial effects in liver transplantation models. This study compares controlled oxygenated rewarming (COR) to normothermic machine perfusion (NMP) to resuscitate liver grafts following cold storage (CS). Porcine livers were preserved for 18 hours by CS.
