Celsior Versus University of Wisconsin Preserving Solutions for Liver Transplantation: Postreperfusion Syndrome and Outcome of a 5-Year Prospective Randomized Controlled Study

Background Celsior solution (CS) is a high-sodium, low-potassium, low-viscosity extracellular solution that has been used for liver graft preservation in recent years, although experience with it is still limited. We performed an open-label randomized active-controlled trial comparing CS with the University of Wisconsin solution (UW) for liver transplantation (LT), with a follow-up period of 5 years.
