Core Tip Machine perfusion (MP) may enhance graft preservation and modulate immune responses, but high costs, logistical barriers, and lack of standardized viability criteria limit its routine use. Long-term outcome data and head-to-head comparisons between perfusion strategies remain scarce, and uptake is low in Korean liver transplant centers. Robust multicenter trials integrating immune profiling and biomarker-guided immunosuppression are needed before MP can be endorsed as standard practice.
