Segmental pancreatic autotransplantation in the pig.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Success of human pancreatic islet isolation depends largely on the techniques used during pancreas procurement and the quality of the gland. Warm ischemia of the pancreas of any duration during organ procurement may be detrimental to subsequent islet yield and functional viability of the islets. The aim of t...
