“Zero”-biopsy photomicrographs of specimen from the kidney grafts obtained at the end of the procurement procedure.

<p>Hematoxylin – Eosin and Shiff's staining. A1, A2 – the sample taken from an unsuccessful UDCD; B1,B2 – kidney biopsy performed in BDD; C1,C2 – the result of morphological investigation of specimen obtained from a successful UDCD. There are comments in the main text.</p

Clinical parameters of the perfusion procedure.

*<p>pO₂: partial pressure of oxygen.</p>**<p>pCO₂: partial pressure of carbon dioxide.</p>***<p>SNECP: subnormothermic extracorporeal perfusion; LD: leukocyte depletion.</p

Schematics of the perfusion procedure.

<p>The components of the perfusion circuit include: 1: venous reservoir; 2: mechanical perfusion module; 3: oxygenator; 4: leukocyte filter; 5: preservation solution bag; 6: source of oxygen; 7: arterial line of the perfusion circuit; 8: venous line; 9: surgical access to femoral vessels; 10: zone of isolated abdominal perfusion.</p
