We present an easy-to-establish revision of the classical two-cuff technique for orthotopic liver transplantation in rat.
We describe the design of the “quick-linker” device for easier orthotopic rat liver transplantation.
The goal of this study is to modify the rat orthotopic liver transplant model to better represent human liver transplantation and improve recipient survival. The presented method reestablishes hepatic arterial inflow by connecting the donor liver's common hepatic artery to the recipient liver's proper hepatic artery.
