RESUMEN
Intestinal allotransplantation was first described in the 1960s and successfully performed in the 1980s. Since that time, less progress has been made in the preservation of the allograft before transplantation and static cold storage remains the current standard. Normothermic machine perfusion represents an opportunity to simultaneously preserve, assess, and recondition the organ for transplantation and improve the procurement radius for allografts. The substantial progress made in the field during the last 60 years, coupled with the success of the preclinical animal model of machine perfusion-preserved intestinal transplantation, suggest we are approaching the point of clinical application.

This study identified 26 late invasive primary surgical site infection (IP-SSI) within 4-12 months of transplantation among 2073 SOT recipients at Duke University Hospital over the period 2015-2019. Thoracic organ transplants accounted for 25 late IP-SSI. Surveillance for late IP-SSI should be maintained for at least one year following transplant.
