“…4,101,103,114,115 Postoperative complications are more common, with reported longer ICU and hospital stay, higher rates of ICUacquired myopathy and neuropathy, postoperative frailty with prolonged need for rehabilitation, kidney failure, ventilation or ECMO-related complications, and bleeding due to adhesions. [116][117][118][119][120] Reported survival ranged from 351 days to 2.5 years; however, survival rates do seem to improve with time and accumulating experience. [116][117][118][119]121 More studies with larger patient cohorts are needed to assess short-and long-term survival after lung transplantation for ARDS.…”

Lung transplantation is an accepted therapeutic option for end-stage lung diseases. The imbalance between limited availability and vast need of donor organs necessitates careful selection of recipient candidates, ensuring the best possible utilization of the scarce resource of organs. Nonetheless, possible lung transplant candidates who could experience a meaningful improvement in survival and quality of life should not be excluded solely based on the complexity of their case. In this review, controversial issues or difficult limitations for lung transplantation, and new developments in recipient selection criteria, are discussed, which may help broaden recipient eligibility for lung transplantation without compromising long-term outcomes.

“…However, for acute lung failure, the evidence for LTx is limited to a few case reports. 6 , 7 , 8 , 9 , 10 , 11 , 12 , 13 , 14 , 15 , 16 , 17 , 18 , 19 To date, the only larger case series of LTx for ARDS was published in 2014 by a South Korean LTx center. This study included nine patients with a median posttransplant survival of 64 months.…”

Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is a rapidly progressive lung disease with a high mortality rate. Although lung transplantation (LTx) is a well‐established treatment for a variety of chronic pulmonary diseases, LTx for acute lung failure (due to ARDS) remains controversial. We reviewed posttransplant outcome of ARDS patients from three high‐volume European transplant centers. Demographics and clinical data were collected and analyzed. Viral infection was the main reason for ARDS ( n = 7/13, 53.8%). All patients were admitted to ICU and required mechanical ventilation, 11/13 were supported with ECMO at the time of listing. They were granted a median LAS of 76 (IQR 50–85) and waited for a median of 3 days (IQR 1.5–14). Postoperatively, median length of mechanical ventilation was 33 days (IQR 17–52.5), median length of ICU and hospital stay were 39 days (IQR 19.5–58.5) and 54 days (IQR 43.5–127). Prolongation of peripheral postoperative ECMO was required in 7/13 (53.8%) patients with a median duration of 2 days (IQR 2–7). 30‐day mortality was 7.7%, 1 and 5‐year survival rates were calculated as 71.6% and 54.2%, respectively. Given the lack of alternative treatment options, the herein presented results support the concept of offering live‐saving LTx to carefully selected ARDS patients.
