In one representative embodiment, a method of perfusing organs in a patient’s body is provided. The method comprises isolating the visceral arteries and the visceral veins from blood circulating through the patient’s heart and perfusing the visceral arteries, the visceral veins, and the abdominal organs with a perfusion fluid that is fluidly separated from the blood circulating through the patient’s heart. While the visceral arteries and the visceral veins are isolated, and the visceral arteries, the visceral veins, and the abdominal organs are being perfused, the patient’s blood is allowed to continue to circulate through the heart.
