ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
Lung transplantation is a definitive therapy for a variety of end stage lung diseases. Since 1996, we have performed thirteen cases of lung transplantation including two retransplantations, and we analyzed the outcomes, complications, and survivals of these patients. MATERIAL ANDMETHOD:
We retrospectively analyzed the medical records of thirteen cases from July, 1996 to July, 2005.RESULT:
During the period, 11 patients had undergone 13 lung and heart-lung transplantations, and two patients had retransplantation due to allograft failure. Mean age of recipients were 45.2+/-10.7 years (range, 25~59). Early complications were bleeding, reperfusion injury, and infection and late complications were mainly infection and post-transplantation lymphoproliferative disease. Excluding the operative mortality, the mean survival period was 16.5 months (2~60 months). Two retransplantations had been performed 2 weeks and 13 months after single lung transplantations.CONCLUSION:
In order to achieve long term survival, early detection of complications and proper treatment in addition to surgical skills are necessary, and these efforts can promote better lung transplantation programs in the near future.
