Experimental Study on the Prevention of Reperfusion Injury after Hepatic Ischemia by Hepatic Low-Temperature Perfusion

We carried out an experimental study on changes in hepatic blood circulation and hepatic oxygen supply after release of interruption of hepatic low-temperature perfusion with interruption of hepatic circulation. Adult mongrel dogs with 60 minutes' liver ischemia were divided into a hepatic lowtemperature perfusion group (n=10) and a non-perfusion group (n=8). On and after 30 minutes after release of interruption, the hepatic artery blood flow and portal vein blood flow decreased in the non-perfusion group but increased in the perfusion group with significant differences (p
