“…In 1986, the Toronto Lung Transplant Program reported the first successful single-lung transplantations for two patients with pulmonary fibrosis (Cooper et al 1987). This team went on to perform the first successful doublelung transplant, first with an en bloc technique that used a tracheal anastomosis, then evolving to the bilateral sequential transplantation technique that not only improved airway healing, but also had the additional benefit of avoiding cardiopulmonary bypass, if desired (Patterson et al 1988). This technique remains the standard technique in use to this day.…”

Since the first successful lung transplant 30 years ago, lung transplantation has rapidly become an established standard of care to treat end-stage lung disease in selected patients. Advances in lung preservation, surgical technique, and immunosuppression regimens have resulted in the routine performance of lung transplantation around the world for an increasing number of patients, with wider indications. Despite this, donor shortages and chronic lung allograft dysfunction continue to prevent lung transplantation from reaching its full potential. With research into the underlying mechanisms of acute and chronic lung graft dysfunction and advances in personalized diagnostic and therapeutic approaches to both the donor lung and the lung transplant recipient, there is increasing confidence that we will improve short-and long-term outcomes in the near future.

“…El trasplante pulmonar experimental se inicia en la Unión Soviética en 1946, cuando 42 realizaron los primeros trasplantes bipulmonares en bloque mediante anastomosis traqueal. La dehiscencia de la sutura traqueal era el mayor problema de este tipo de trasplante y la causa de sus malos resultados.…”

“…It wasn't until after the seminal transplantation of single lungs demonstrating significant improvement in symptoms, that lung transplantation became a mainstay for the end-stage emphysema [69][70][71]. Currently, the most common indication for lung transplantation is idiopathic diffuse emphysema and AAT1 deficiency, two criteria that account for the majority of lung transplants [70].…”
