This report describes the experimental results obtained with conventional (pulmonary artery, PA) flushing versus retrograde perfusion (via left atrium, LA) using 99mTc-labeled macroaggregated albumin (MAA-99mTc) to ascertain the distribution throughout the tracheobronchial (TB) tree in 10 Large-White pigs. Lung preservation was achieved with 4 degrees C Euro-Collins solution (60 ml/kg) instilled via PA (n = 5) or LA (n = 5). Simultaneously, MAA-99mTc was given using the same respective route and the isotope uptake quantified at different TB levels after heart-lung block harvest and dissection of all tissue adjacent to TB: proximal and distal trachea and right and left main bronchi. Retrograde distribution resulted in a significantly higher 99mTc count compared to the PA route (p < 0.01).
