ABSTRACT
The ethical concerns of refusing lifesaving treatments after receiving an already limited resource such as a solid organ transplantation in a Jehovah's Witness patient have been discussed in the literature. Many of these studies have concluded that with a multidisciplinary approach, solid organ transplantation is possible in the setting of Jehovah's Witness patients. To date, there are no reported cases of bilateral sequential lung transplantation in the literature. We report two successful cases of bilateral sequential lung transplantation in Jehovah's Witness patients with excellent long-term follow-up.
