Rats in the sham group did not experience the warm and cold ischemia phase and were without transplantation. One recipient in the control group and 1 in the FS group were excluded because of the hemodynamic instability and the separation failure of the lung hilum. There was no statistic difference in duration in the control, FS, and VS groups. FS: H2S inflation; VS: H2S ventilation.
