Concomitant surgical aortic valve replacement with bilateral orthotopic lung transplantation

Concomitant cardiac surgery at the time of lung transplantation while uncommon has been shown to have acceptable morbidity and mortality. We present a case of a 66-year-old man with a history of interstitial pulmonary fibrosis with end-stage lung disease who presented with moderate aortic stenosis and severe aortic regurgitation. He underwent a bioprosthetic surgical aortic valve replacement at the time of bilateral orthotopic lung transplant and recovered without any major complications.
