Figure 1. Diagram of the liver perfusion system.

Figure 1

Our normothermic machine perfusion (NMP) system consisted of an organ chamber, a centrifugal pump, a roller pump, and an oxygenator/heat exchanger to maintain physiological temperature and oxygen content in perfusate to perfuse liver via portal vein (PV) and hepatic artery (HA). Nutrition was added into perfusate. Prostacyclin was supplied in HA infusion. Bile duct was drained externally.
