Orthotope arterialisierte Lebertransplantation bei Ratten mit Stenttechnik der supra- und infrahepatischen v. cava

2003

The aim of this study was to establish a liver transplant model with a reduced warm ischemic period between cold preservation and completed anastomosis. Male brown Norway rats were used. A cuff was fixed in the portal vein, stents were inserted in the A. hepatica, the suprahepatic and infrahepatic v. cava and in the bile duct. After cross clamping of the recipient liver, another stent, occluded by a small pin, was introduced in the recipient suprahepatic v. cava. After ligation of this recipient suprahepatic caval stent the recipient liver was removed and the cold prepared donor liver was pushed forward along the pin and both suprahepatic stents of recipient and donor were connected. Then c…
