ABSTRACT
Kidney transplantation is limited due to the organ scarcity and the large discrepancy between transplantable organs and patients on the waiting list. Ex-situ normothermic kidney preservation has been studied extensively as a tool to enlarge the donor pool and to enable viability assessment. Urine recirculation, for volume control, was applied to perfuse a discarded human kidney for 48 hours. Long-term kidney NMP was feasible under stable hemodynamic conditions with a physiological acid-base-balance and an intact histological morphology of the organ.
