This book is divided into three main sections: Organ Preservation, Organ Harvesting and Surgical Techniques. Many different organs are covered including heart, kidneys, lungs, pancreas, intestine and bowel. The various aspects of preservation are discussed including cooling, and preservation solutions, the composition of which are currently being actively explored. This book will be of particular interest to those involved in the often complex surgery of organ harvesting or trainees in transplantation surgery. It will also prove to be valuable to the younger researcher who needs a clearer understanding of the scientific basis of organ preservation and the clinical need for better organ preservation. |
