Synopsis
This well-illustrated handbook provides answers to important questions that may arise during the retrieval of multiple organs for transplantation and offers step-by-step descriptions of current surgical techniques for procurement of the various thoracic and abdominal organs, including heart, lung, liver, intestine, pancreas, and kidney. The coverage includes detailed instruction on liver splitting techniques and on living donor liver hepatectomies and laparoscopic and robot-assisted nephrectomy for transplantation. In addition, guidance is provided on preoperative evaluation for multiorgan donation, contraindications, management for organ retrieval in deceased donors, and organ preservation. The advice offered and the questions addressed will be of relevance not only to transplant surgeons, trainees, and fellows but also to all other professionals involved in organ transplantation, including nursing staff in intensive care units and emergency rooms.

Newspapers & Magazines
"The purpose is to provide a step-by-step description of organ procurement. This is a worthy goal because the major textbook of transplantation has a rather outdated and very concise review of organ donation. The book does a good job of reviewing the entire process from donor evaluation, to ethical concerns, to technical aspects of the procedure, to organ preservation solutions. This is probably more meaningful for physician assistants and residents/fellows. ... The pictures are excellent." (Krishna G. Putchakayala, Doody's Book Reviews, June, 2016)
