More than 55,000 cases have been reported to the International Society for Heart and Lung Transplantation Registry since 1985.1 The potential options, in order of greatest frequency, are double-lung, single-lung, heart-lung, and lobar transplants (Fig. 110-1). Denton A. Cooley described the first successful heart-lung transplant in 1968 in a 2-month-old girl with congestive heart failure and recurrent pneumonia.2 This dual-organ procedure evolved into the more commonly used bilateral sequential lung transplant described by Alec Patterson, Joel D. Cooper, and their colleagues from the University of Toronto.3 The Toronto Lung Group popularized the technique of single-lung transplantation in 1986 for patients with pulmonary fibrosis, and this has become an important option for many patients.4 SN - PB - McGraw-Hill Education CY - New York, NY Y2 - 2024/03/29 UR - accesssurgery.mhmedical.com/content.aspx?aid=1170413337 ER -
