Overview

This e-book discusses the pros and cons of organ donation from live or cadaveric donors and profiles many different organs, including the heart, kidneys, lungs, pancreas and intestine. Cooling and preservation solutions are of special interest as researchers are actively exploring the composition of those solutions. Fully referenced and illustrated, Organ Preservation and Transplant Surgery will be of particular interest to those involved in the often complex surgery of organ harvesting or trainees in transplantation surgery. It gives clear accounts of the techniques involved and will also prove invaluable to the younger researcher who needs a clearer understanding of the scientific basis of organ preservation.
