The single-lung transplantation is reserved for patients with pulmonary fibrosis. Patients with emphysema are thought to be unsuitable for single-lung transplantation because of the ventilation-perfusion imbalance that is supposed to occur, the ventilation being preferentially distributed to the native lung when the perfusion is distributed to the transplanted lung. We now report a preliminary success with single-lung transplantation in two consecutive patients with end-stage pulmonary emphysema. Despite the persistence after transplantation of an obstructive syndrome, the clinical status was good, the blood gases were markedly improved, and ventilation-perfusion imbalance did not occur on lung scans. After discharge from the hospital, the patients could return to an almost normal life. Thus, our data support the feasibility of single-lung transplantation in patients with end-stage pulmonary emphysema, and we consider that single-lung transplantation could be the optimal form of lung transplantation in these patients.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1164\/ajrccm\/140.3.797","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2013,4,4]],"date-time":"2013-04-04T17:04:30Z","timestamp":1365095070000},"page":"797-802","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":148,"title":["Unilateral Lung Transplantation in End-Stage Pulmonary Emphysema"],"prefix":"10.1093","volume":"140","author":[{"given":"Herv\u00e9","family":"Mal","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Bernard","family":"Andreassian","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Fabrice","family":"Pamela","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Jean-Pierre","family":"Duchatelle","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Eric","family":"Rondeau","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Fr\u00e9d\u00e9ric","family":"Dubois","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Pierre","family":"Baldeyrou","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Michel","family":"Kitzis","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Charles","family":"Sleiman","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Ren\u00e9","family":"Pariente","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"286","published-online":{"date-parts":[[1989,9,1]]},"reference":[{"key":"p_5","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1001\/jama.1963.63710120001010"},{"key":"p_7","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1056\/NEJM198605013141810"},{"key":"p_8","first-page":"1140","volume":"314","year":"1986","journal-title":"J Med"},{"key":"p_10","first-page":"254","volume":"4","author":"Technique","year":"1985","journal-title":"J Transplant"}],"container-title":["American Review of Respiratory Disease"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/academic.oup.com\/ajrccm\/article-pdf\/140\/3\/797\/67751882\/ajrccm_140_3_797.pdf","content-type":"application\/pdf","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"syndication"},{"URL":"https:\/\/academic.oup.com\/ajrccm\/article-pdf\/140\/3\/797\/67751882\/ajrccm_140_3_797.pdf","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2026,4,3]],"date-time":"2026-04-03T06:08:46Z","timestamp":1775196526000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/academic.oup.com\/ajrccm\/article\/140\/3\/797\/8558973"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[1989,9,1]]},"references-count":4,"journal-issue":{"issue":"3","published-online":{"date-parts":[[1989,9,1]]},"published-print":{"date-parts":[[1989,9,1]]}},"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1164\/ajrccm\/140.3.797","relation":{},"ISSN":["0003-0805"],"issn-type":[{"value":"0003-0805","type":"print"}],"subject":[],"published-other":{"date-parts":[[1989,9]]},"published":{"date-parts":[[1989,9,1]]}}}
