Objective The limiting factor when using lungs from donors after cardiac death (DCD) is the duration of warm ischemic time, which is linked to reperfusion edema. Within the context of lung shortages, and in order to avoid transplanting damaged lungs, ex-vivo lung perfusion (EVLP) has emerged as a...
