“…These results differed from multiple published reports suggesting that DLT offers a survival advantage over SLT in various patient groups including high-risk patients, young patients, and patients with high mean pulmonary arterial pressure. 2,11,12 Most recently, Villavicencio and colleagues 9 analyzed recipients from 1987 to 2015, whether listed exclusively or concurrently, and recommended that DLT should be considered the "procedure of choice" over SLT for pulmonary fibrosis patients younger than 70 years. Consistent with these results the International Society for Heart and Lung Transplantation annual report demonstrated that the annual ratio of DLT to SLT procedures has steadily increased over the last 15 years.…”

“…However controversy regarding the ideal procedure for IPF lung transplant recipients is based on conflicting reports regarding whether double lung transplant (DLT) offers a survival advantage over single lung transplant (SLT). [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9] Most recently a report suggested that DLT should be the "procedure of choice" for pulmonary fibrosis patients younger than 70 years of age, especially in patients with high lung allocation scores (LAS). 9 However a significant number of IPF recipients treated with SLT remain, indicating that the lung transplant community still collectively believes SLT is an appropriate or the only option for some proportion of IPF recipients.…”

“…Results from current published articles have implied that there might be a preference to perform DLT for interstitial lung diseases with better survival rates, especially in high-risk patients, young patients, and patients with high mPAP [27,29]. Recently, Villavicencio et al retrospectively analyzed recipients of lung transplants for pulmonary fibrosis between 1987 to 2015, and found that DLT improved survival compared with SLT, which should be considered the procedure of choice in patients younger than 70 years old [30]. Nevertheless, shorter procedure time, less operative trauma, and avoidance of DLT, double lung transplantation; OR, odds ratio; CI, confidence interval; P het , P-value for heterogeneity; SLT, single lung transplantation.…”

“…Villavicencio et al (25) presents the most recent data comparing survival outcomes of SLTx vs. BLTx in IPF recipients. This study includes 9,191 lung transplant recipients with IPF from 1987 to 2015.…”
