Four decades of heart–lung transplantation: Milestones and outcomes in advanced cardiorespiratory failure

ESC Heart Failure, EarlyView.
Abstract Aims Heart–lung transplantation (HLTx) remains a life‐saving intervention for patients with end‐stage cardiopulmonary failure. We retrospectively analysed long‐term HLTx outcomes at our centre to assess survival trends and evaluate the impact of evolving immunosuppressive, surgical and perioperative strategies.
