Known techniques such as kidney-only procurement using the standard multi-organ procurement technique could potentially cause more iatrogenic injuries due to less adequate exposure. An alternative using the live open kidney donation technique could also be less than ideal due to prior unknown anatomical variation and potential the inability to adequately topically cool the kidneys. We describe here a novel easy kidney-only technique leading to an improved exposure, better cold perfusion and topical cooling. Herein we show how total bowel evisceration can be achieved by stapling the hepatic hilum, superior mesenteric artery and coeliac trunk. There is a need of a kidney only procurement in order to increase the quality of deceased kidney donation in our opinion.
