  • Title: Clinical kidney preservation with Sacks' solution.
    Author: Blohmè I, Brynger H.
    Journal: Scand J Urol Nephrol Suppl; 1980; 54():81-2. PubMed ID: 7013050.
    Abstract:
    One hundred and eleven cadaver kidneys were preserved by simple hypothermic storage in Sacks' solution for periods up to 41 hours. All kidneys were viable and in 72% of the cases there was significant graft function within three days. These results compare favourably with our previous experience with machine perfusion. It is concluded that perservation of cadaver kidneys in Sacks's solution is a reliable method for periods up to at least 30 hours which corresponds well to our clinical needs. Simple hypothermic storage is thus today our routine method of preservation.
