Background. Use of pulsatile perfusion (PP) to optimize outcomes in deceased donor renal transplantation remains controversial. This prospective analysis describes all cadaveric renal allografts transplanted at our center that were preserved with PP using Celsior solution. Methods. We used the LifePort Kidney Transporter (Organ Recovery Systems) perfusion machine. Study outcomes included 1-year graft and patient survivals as well as rates of delayed graft function and need for posttransplant dialysis. Results. Graft survival for PP was 90% and patient survival 100%. The incidences of delayed gzaft function was 10% and of posttransplant dialysis, 10%. Conclusion. These data support the use of PP with Celsior solution.
