臓器移植法改正後10年が過ぎたがドナー不足は続いており1),なかでも生体ドナーがない心臓移植では深刻な状況が続いている2,3).海外ではドナープール拡大のため心停止ドナー(donation after cardiac death:DCD)による臓器移植がすすんでいる.歴史を振り返ると,世界初のヒトドナーからの心臓移植はDCDでの移植であり,大阪大学旧第一外科では1970年代半ばからその臨床応用をめざした実験が行われている4,5).
The donation of the organs after brain death (DBD) has increased after the revision of the law in 2010 and the total number of heart transplantation (HTx) has reached to over 500 in Japan. However, donor shortage is critical as the annual number as remaining under 100 with unneglectable number of waiting deaths. Recently, HTx under donation after controlled circulatory death (cDCD) has been promoted in United Kingdom (UK) and Australia with promising outcomes. The cDCD appears to be an important option to expand the donor pool in Japan. Nation-wide and cross-cutting action among transplantation organs is warranted. Status of cDCD HTx in abroad and the domestic issues are reviewed.
