Schematic picture of experiment set-up. The figure demonstrates the set-up of the experiment of both groups. In both groups, a donor lung was harvested and stored for 24 h on ice. In a second animal (recipient), via left thoracotomy a left pneumonectomy was performed. In the low-flow (LF) group the reperfusion was observed for 6 h without partially clamping the right pulmonary artery. In the high-flow group (HF) the right pulmonary artery was partially clamped after the first 2 h of reperfusion for another 4 h
