The influence of preconditioning on metabolic changes in the pig liver before, during, and after warm liver ischemia measured by microdialysis

Purpose Ischemia-reperfusion injury induced by the Pringle maneuver is a well-known problem after liver surgery. The aim of this study was to monitor metabolic changes in the pig liver during warm ischemia and the following reperfusion preceded by ischemic preconditioning (IPC).
