Long term outcomes of lung transplantation are impacted by the occurrence of chronic lung allograft dysfunction (CLAD). Recent evidence suggests a role for the lung microbiome in the occurrence of CLAD, but the exact mechanisms are not well defined. We hypothesize that the lung microbiome inhibits epithelial autophagic clearance of pro-fibrotic proteins in an IL-33 dependent manner, thereby…

Mashup Score: 0Toupet fundoplication could become preferred anti-reflux procedure after lung transplant - 1 year(s) ago
CHARLOTTE, N.C. — Among patients who underwent lung transplantation, laparoscopic Toupet fundoplication provided objective acid reflux control and preserved lung function and foregut motility, according to late-breaking data. “Gastroesophageal reflux disease with microaspiration is a modifiable risk factor for lung transplant rejection,” Sheetal Patel, MD, a third-year fellow in

Planned venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA ECMO) is increasingly used during bilateral orthotopic lung transplantation (BOLT) and may be superior to off-pump support for patients without pulmonary hypertension. In this single-institution study, we compared rates of textbook outcome between BOLTs performed with planned VA ECMO or off-pump support for recipients with no or mild…

Mashup Score: 0Frailty predicts outcomes in cystic fibrosis patients listed for lung transplantation - 1 year(s) ago
Survival predictors are not established for cystic fibrosis (CF) patients listed for lung transplantation (LT). Using the deficit accumulation approach, we developed a CF-specific frailty index (FI) to allow risk stratification for adverse waitlist and post-LT outcomes.

The number of lung transplant procedures performed internationally is increasing but the donor organ pool is insufficient to meet demand and waiting list mortality is unacceptably high. As survival rates for patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome managed on extracorporeal life support (ECLS) have steadily improved, a potential role for ECLS to support critically ill patients awaiting a…

Harvesting a well-preserved and undamaged pair of donor lungs is vital for a good outcome after a lung transplant. This video shows the authors’ retrieval technique, which has been standardized and is easy to follow and fully reproducible by fellows with minimal assistance. The goals of a donor lung retrieval include: 1. Careful assessment of lungs, including bronchoscopy, inspection, palpation,…

Mashup Score: 0Survival difference between high-risk and low-risk CFTR genotypes after lung transplant - 2 year(s) ago
While cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) genotypes are associated with clinical outcomes in cystic fibrosis patients, it is unknown if genotype impacts lung transplant outcomes. We sought to compare lung transplant survival and time to bronchiolitis obliterans syndrome (BOS) between high-risk, low-risk, and not yet classified CFTR genotypes.

Previous studies have reported that lung transplant recipients (LTR) develop a poor response to two doses of COVID-19 vaccine, but data regarding the third dose are lacking. We investigated the antibody response after three doses of mRNA vaccine in LTR and its predictive factors.
