Use of Georges Lopez Institute Preservation Solution IGL-1 in Pancreas Transplantation: A Series of 47 Cases

摘要

Background. Graft preservation continues to be one of the main pillars of pancreas transplantation (PT). Surgical complications, possibly caused or facilitated by organ damage during preservation, continue to occur more frequently after PT than for any other abdominal organ. During the past few years, the Georges Lopez Institute preservation solution IGL-1 has been introduced with satisfactory results for the perfusion and cold storage of abdominal grafts such as kidney and liver.
