Combined Thorax-Abdomen Extraction in Controlled Cardiac Death (Maastricht Type III) Donors.
Transplantation Proceedings 2019 November
Donation after circulatory death (DCD) or controlled cardiac death (Maastricht type III donors) is that in which the irreversible cessation of circulatory and respiratory function occurs after the withdrawal of life-sustaining therapies. The shortage of available donor lungs has prompted the development of programs of controlled DCD for lung transplantation. The combined thorax-abdomen extraction in these cases is carried out only in a few centers in Spain, being even more exceptional considering the combined use of super rapid lung extraction with abdominal normothermic regional perfusion. The success achieved with the first cases of combined thorax-abdomen extraction in Maastricht type III donors in Navarra shows that it is a feasible and safe procedure.
