Protocol for the pig liver ischemia/reperfusion injury
Liver ischemia/reperfusion injury (IRI) is a dreadful vascular complication, which leads to liver damage. It is often associated with graft loss in liver transplantation and with a higher morbidity and mortality. IRI can have different causes, such as inflow clumping during surgical procedures in hepatic resection, liver transplantation, trauma, as well as during the stenosis of the vasculature caused by cancer. Here, we show a detailed IRI protocol in a porcine model.
