We previously described a technique for en bloc double-lung transplantation
that was initially applied to select patients with cystic fibrosis and
emphysema. This procedure is quite complex and associated with several
limitations, including a substantial incidence of airway ischemia,
postoperative myocardial depression, and cardiac denervation. To address
these problems we have developed a simpler procedure for replacing both
lungs. The operation is done through a transverse thoracosternotomy and
involves sequential replacement of the two lungs. Positive features include
separate bronchial anastomoses to reduce ischemic airway complications,
elimination of the need for total cardiopulmonary bypass and a period of
ischemic cardiac arrest, improved exposure to reduce intraoperative and
postoperative hemorrhage, and maintenance of cardiac innervation.
Additionally, the technique can be more easily mastered and widely applied.
Details of the procedure and its initial clinical application in 3 patients
having emphysema, cystic fibrosis, and bronchiolitis obliterans following
previous double-lung transplantation, respectively, are described. All 3
patients recovered without complication. Postoperative function was
excellent in spite of lung ischemic times ranging up to 91/2 hours.
