Abstract: | A comparison is made of the efficacies of three solutions for brief perfusion of ischæmically damaged canine kidneys before 24 hours' preservation in ice and autotransplantation. Perfusion with a plasma-red-cell mixture, with intracellular electrolyte solution (Collins C3), mid perfusion with an extracellular “electrolyte solution” all gave comparable results, similar to those in a control group with no perfusion. |
