I read with great interest the publication by de Goeij et al titled “Hypothermic oxygenated machine perfusion protects from cholangiopathy in DCD liver transplantation” (1). I commend the authors on their excellent summary of an emerging field in transplant hepatology, however I advise them and the readers to exercise caution when extrapolating these results to long-term clinical outcomes.

应谨慎外推机器灌注的短期数据

我怀着极大的兴趣阅读了de Goeij 等人发表的题为“低温氧合机灌注可预防 DCD 肝移植中的胆管病”的出版物(1)。我赞扬作者对移植肝病学新兴领域的出色总结，但我建议他们和读者在将这些结果外推到长期临床结果时要谨慎行事。
