[Kidney allograft harvesting on a donor patient under cardiopulmonary bypass].
We report the case of a kidney allograft harvesting on a donor patient under cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) after a cardiac arrest. The two kidneys were successfully transplanted with immediate graft function. CPB may provide an option to expand the number of harvested grafts.
