From: A comparative study on the efficacy of a retrograde perfusion technique and an antegrade perfusion technique for donor kidney recovery in transplantation in pigs

Fig. 3

Both retrograde perfused kidneys (a) and antegrade perfused kidneys (b) have minimal interstitial, tubular edema and endothelial cell swelling with good preservation of renal architecture at 2–4 h in cold storage (hematoxylin and eosin staining, 20×). Retrograde perfusion (c) resulted in glomerular shrinkage with effusion and antegrade perfusion (d) resulted in glomerular shrinkage at the end of 24 h in cold storage (hematoxylin and eosin staining, 40×)
