AbstractRecent advances in machine perfusion have revolutionised the field of transplantation by prolonging preservation, permitting evaluation of viability prior to implant and rescue of discarded organs. Long-term perfusion for days-to-weeks provides time to modify these organs prior to transplantation. By using long-term normothermic machine perfusion to facilitate liver splitting and subsequent perfusion of both partial organs, possibilities even outside the clinical arena become possible.
