Long-term outcomes of bilateral lobar lung transplantation.
OBJECTIVES Lobar lung transplantation is an option that provides the possibility of transplanting an urgent listed recipient of small size with a size-mismatched donor lung by surgically reducing the size of the donor lung. We report our short- and long-term results with bilateral lobar lung transplantation (BLLT) and compare it with the long-term outcomes of our cohort. METHODS Retrospective...
متن کاملeComment. Gender mismatching in lung transplantation: lung size mismatch is the issue!
30-day mortality, PGD, BOS and long-term survival. Although we aimed at constructing a homogeneous study group (adjusting for size and diagnosis), other confounding factors might have had an influence. These circumstances might have biased the results to some degree but not, in our opinion, to an extent that may invalidate the main conclusions drawn from the study. To summarize, this single-cen...
متن کاملAntibodies to MHC class I induce autoimmunity: role in the pathogenesis of chronic rejection.
Alloimmunity to mismatched donor HLA-Ags and autoimmunity to self-Ags have been hypothesized to play an important role in immunopathogenesis of chronic rejection of transplanted organs. However, it is not known what role, if any, alloimmune response plays in inducing autoimmunity. To test whether Ab-developed posttransplantation to mismatched donor MHC induces autoimmunity and chronic rejection...
متن کاملTransbronchial biopsies provide longitudinal evidence for epithelial chimerism in children following sex mismatched lung transplantation.
BACKGROUND Recent reports have shown evidence of host derived parenchymal engraftment in several human allografts including the lung, leading to speculation that stem cell therapy may be useful for lung repair in diseases such as cystic fibrosis (CF). To date, previous studies have looked at single surgical or autopsy specimens and no longitudinal studies have been reported. The aim of this stu...
متن کاملCellular chimerism of the lung after transplantation. An interphase cytogenetic study.
The present study evaluated the origin of endothelial and epithelial cells, as well as of lymphocytes and macrophages, after lung transplantation. Biopsy specimens from patients who underwent lung and heart-lung transplantation and received organs of sex-mismatched donors were studied by means of nonisotopic in situ hybridization with DNA probes of the X and Y chromosome. By means of monoclonal...
