Umbilical cord blood transplantation (CBT) has been widely used as an alternative source of hematopoietic cell support for stem cell transplant patients.

Living-donor lobar lung transplantation (LDLLT) has been performed more than cadaveric lung transplantation (CLT) because of the difficulty in obtaining brain dead donors (n = 93 versus n = 65). The indications were quite unique in Japan where idiopathic pulmonary arterial hypertension was the most...
