  • Title: Lung transplantation from the non-heart beating donor.
    Author: Dark JH.
    Journal: Transplantation; 2008 Jul 27; 86(2):200-1. PubMed ID: 18645477.
    Abstract:
    The inflated lung, with its unique tolerance of the absence of a circulation, is particularly suited to retrieval from the non-heart beating donor. Absence of some of the squeal of brain death may be a further potential advantage. This concept has been embraced by several centers around the world, with promising early results.
