Ex Vivo Lung Perfusion – State of the Art in Lung Donor Pool Expansion
Lung transplantation remains the gold standard for patients with end-stage lung disease. Nevertheless, the number of suitable donor lungs for the increasing number of patients on the waiting list necessitates alternative tools to expand the lung donor pool. Modern preservation and lung assessment techniques could contribute to improved function in previously rejected lungs. Ex vivo lung perfusi...

OBJECTIVE To evaluate the use of ex vivo lung perfusion (EVLP) clinically to prepare donor lungs for transplantation. METHODS A prospective study involving EVLP for the reconditioning of extended-criteria donor lungs, the criteria for which include aspects such as a PaO2/FiO2 ratio < 300 mmHg. Between February of 2013 and February of 2014, the lungs of five donors were submitted to EVLP for u...
متن کاملIncidence and severity of primary graft dysfunction after lung transplantation using rejected grafts reconditioned with ex vivo lung perfusion.
OBJECTIVES Ex vivo lung perfusion (EVLP) is a novel technique used to evaluate and recondition marginal or rejected grafts. Primary graft dysfunction (PGD) is a major early complication after lung transplantation (LTx). The use of marginal or initially rejected grafts may increase its incidence and severity. The aim of this study is to evaluate the incidence of PGD after LTx using rejected graf...
متن کاملEx vivo lung perfusion to improve donor lung function and increase the number of organs available for transplantation
This paper describes the initial clinical experience of ex vivo lung perfusion (EVLP) at the Fondazione Ca' Granda in Milan between January 2011 and May 2013. EVLP was considered if donor PaO2 /FiO2 was below 300 mmHg or if lung function was doubtful. Donors with massive lung contusion, aspiration, purulent secretions, pneumonia, or sepsis were excluded. EVLP was run with a low-flow, open atriu...
