Core Tip	Preservation of abdominal organs during transplant remains an important factor in patient and graft survival. Considerable variation exists between institutions with respect to the preservation solution of choice with an uncertain impact on patient and graft survival. Herein, pertinent clinical studies were reviewed to highlight the best available evidence in the selection of preservation solutions for abdominal transplantation. Histidine-tryptophan-ketoglutarate (HTK) may improve the incidence of biliary compli-cations in hepatic transplants while minimizing costs for renal transplants. However, the use of HTK is dissuaded in pancreas transplants in favor of University of Wisconsin and Celsior solutions given the potential for graft thrombosis with HTK.
