inflammatory responses and innate immunologic reactions play an important role in the respiratory system. ex vivo lung perfusion (evlp) is considered a novel method in the evaluation and reconditioning of donor lungs prior to transplantation. however, evlp’s effect on inflammatory and metabolic markers of human lung tissue is unknown. this study investigated how the performance of evlp on brain...

the introduction of ex vivo lung perfusion (evlp) in the practice of lung transplantation has allowed the reconditioning of the marginal grafts and their conversion into transplantable grafts. in addition, evlp can provide a platform for the application of various preventive measures to decrease the incidence of post-transplant complications. while the toronto team targets the attenuation of th...
