ABSTRACT
Lung transplantation is currently the gold standard treatment for end-stage lung diseases. Advances in the preservation of donor lungs, the surgical technique and immunosuppressive therapy have led to lung transplantation now being a routine procedure. Nevertheless, the shortage of donor organs, the acute and particularly chronic lung allograft dysfunction (CLAD) still represent major challenges even in experienced centers. Research in this area is still necessary to improve the long-term survival of lung recipients.
