Postoperative Outcomes in 415 Patients Following Liver Transplantation Using Extended Donor Criteria: A Study from a Single Center in Germany

Other factors, like donor sex and cold ischemic time, are not part of the EDC, although they have an impact on EAD. Organs obtained by EDC continue to be an option to address the organ shortage.PMID:37025050 | DOI:10.12659/AOT.939060
