ABSTRACT
PURPOSE OF REVIEW The purpose of this review is to analyze the most recent and relevant literature involving lung transplantation for coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) associated acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), the pathological mechanisms of lung injury, selection criteria and outcomes. RECENT FINDINGS:
Pathological analysis of lungs after COVID-19 ARDS has shown architectural distortion similar to that observed in explanted lungs from patients undergoing lung transplantation for end-stage lung diseases such as emphysema. Short-term outcomes after lung transplantation for COVID-19 associated respiratory failure are comparable to those performed for other indications.SUMMARY:
Lung transplantation after COVID-19 ARDS is a potentially life-saving procedure for appropriately selected patients with no evidence of lung function recovery despite maximal treatment. Lung transplantation should be ideally performed in high-volume centers with expertise.
