[A kidney harvesting technic from a non-heart beating donor].
The authors describe the technique of collection of kidneys from NHBD. They present their own protocol elaborated in Plzen for collection of kidneys from NHBD. For collection they use a special double-balloon catheter inserted into the aorta to ensure that the perfusion fluid will penetrate into visceral branches of the aorta. For the flow of the perfusion fluid a urinary catheter is used inserted via the femoral vein into the vena cava inferior. Immediately after the beginning of perfusion laparotomy is performed with immediate cooling of the kidney with ice. The authors give an account of their own experience and discuss further technical possibilities as regards collection of kidneys from NHBD.
