    Abstract The frequent use of marginal livers forces transplant centres to explore novel technologies to improve organ quality and outcomes after implantation. Organ perfusion techniques are therefore frequently discussed with an ever-increasing number of experimental and clinical studies. Two main approaches, hypothermic and normothermic perfusion, are the leading strategies to be introduced in clinical practice in many western countries today. Despite this success, the number of studies, which provide robust data on the underlying mechanisms of protection conveyed through this technology remains scarce, particularly in context of different stages of ischemia-reperfusion-injury (IRI). Prior to a successful clinical implementation of machine perfusion, the concept of IRI and potential key molecules, which should be addressed to reduce IRI-associated inflammation, requires a better exploration. During ischemia, Krebs cycle metabolites, including succinate play a crucial role with their direct impact on the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) at mitochondrial complex I upon reperfusion. Such features are even more pronounced under normothermic conditions and lead to even higher levels of downstream inflammation. The direct consequence appears with an activation of the innate immune system. The number of articles, which focus on the impact of machine perfusion with and without the use of specific perfusate additives to modulate the inflammatory cascade after transplantation is very small. This review describes first, the subcellular processes found in mitochondria, which instigate the IRI cascade together with proinflammatory downstream effects and their link to the innate immune system. Next, the impact of currently established machine perfusion strategies is described with a focus on protective mechanisms known for the different perfusion approaches. Finally, the role of such dynamic preservation techniques to deliver specific agents, which appear currently of interest to modulate this posttransplant inflammation, is discussed together with future aspects in this field.

    Abstract Retention of foreign bodies (FB) in the liver parenchyma is a rare event in children but it can bring a heavy burden in terms of immediate and long-term complications. Multiple materials can migrate inside the liver. Clinical manifestations may vary, depending on the nature of the foreign body, its route of penetration and timing after the initial event. Moreover, the location of the FB inside the liver parenchyma may pose specific issues related to the possible complications of a challenging surgical extraction. Different clinical settings and the need for highly specialized surgical skills may influence the overall management of these children. Given the rarity of this event, a systematic review of the literature on this topic was conducted and confirmed the pivotal role of surgery in the pediatric population.

    Abstract Purpose of review: This review describes recent developments in the field of liver perfusion techniques.
    Recent findings: Dynamic preservation techniques are increasingly tested due to the urgent need to improve the overall poor donor utilization. With their exposure to warm ischemia, livers from donors after circulatory death (DCD) transmit additional risk for severe complications after transplantation. Although the superiority of dynamic approaches compared to static-cold-storage is widely accepted, the number of good quality studies remains limited. Most risk factors, particularly donor warm ischemia, and accepted thresholds are inconsistently reported, leading to difficulties to assess the impact of new preservation technologies. Normothermic regional perfusion (NRP) leads to good outcomes after DCD liver transplantation, with however short ischemia times. While randomized controlled trials (RCT) with NRP are lacking, results from the first RCTs with ex-situ perfusion were reported. Hypothermic oxygenated perfusion was shown to protect DCD liver recipients from ischemic cholangiopathy. In contrast, endischemic normothermic perfusion seems to not impact on the development of biliary complications, although this evidence is only available from retrospective studies.
    Summary: Dynamic perfusion strategies impact posttransplant outcomes and are increasingly commissioned in various countries along with more evidence from RCTs. Transparent reporting of risk and utilization with uniform definitions is required to compare the role of different preservation strategies in DCD livers with prolonged ischemia times.
