Expected effect of the lung Composite Allocation Score system on US lung transplantation
American Journal of Transplantation, 2022Efforts are underway to transition the current lung allocation system to a continuous distribution framework whereby multiple factors are simultaneously combined into a Composite Allocation Score (CAS) to prioritize candidates for lung transplant.

Respiratory Medicine, 1989
Over the last eight years a completely new form of treatment has been introduced for end-stage pulmonary vascular disease and chronic lung disease, including cystic fibrosis. Lung transplantation and heart-lung transplantation have moved from an experimental and innovative stage to clinical treatments.

Disease-a-Month, 1994
Solid-organ transplantation has flourished during the last decade, with transplantation of heart and lungs becoming available to patients with end-stage cardiac or pulmonary diseases. The first lung transplant was performed in 1963 on a 58-year-old man with bronchogenic carcinoma. He survived for 18 days.

Current Problems in Surgery, 1989
The supply of donor organs remains extremely limited, and improved methods of maintaining the lungs of potential donors to allow for transplantation must be developed. Currently the upper limit of donor lung ischemic even with our "best" preservation techniques is approximately 4 to 6 hours. Improved methods for preservation will increase the supply of

Surgical Clinics of North America, 1998
Although we have not yet obtained the survival results that have been observed in heart and renal transplantation, the survival rate in lung transplantation is improving. Because the lung is the only organ that is continuously exposed to the environment after transplantation, infection continues to be the major cause of early and late morbidity and ...
