Figure 2. Donor livers on the normothermic machine perfusion. (A) liver with replaced right hepatic artery (RRHA); (B) liver with RRHA and replaced left hepatic artery (RLHA). The bridge from the splenic artery (splenic A) to the superior mesenteric artery (SMA) creates a single arterial cannulation and maintains an intact hepatic arterial vascular inflow for the liver grafts.
