(J. Extra-Corpor. Technol. 20[1]: p. 24–29, 60 references, Spring 1988) Pulsatile perfusion has been a topic of great controversy for many years. This paper reviews historical aspects of pulsatile perfusion, as well as current and conceptual aspects of pulsatile perfusion. The positive and negative points of pulsatile perfusion are discussed so the reader may draw conclusions in an informed way. Although organ preservation and metabolic functions point towards pulsatile perfusion positively, the current knowledge demonstrates that further research would be beneficial and also notes that pulsatile perfusion is beneficial in select cases.
