Abstract:
Lung transplantation carries the potential of great benefit to patients with chronic, end-stage lung disease; but it comes with significant medical, social, financial, and psychosocial costs that differ from those experienced prior to transplantation. Further understanding of its limitations, especially the development of acute and chronic rejection, will continue to lead to better immunosuppressive regimens and therapies. Success of the transplant procedure involves not only interventions to improve graft survival, but also those to improve the patient's quality of life.
