Technique for prolonged normothermic ex vivo lung perfusion.

TL;DR: Twelve hours of EVLP at physiologic temperatures using an acellular perfusate is achievable and maintains the donor lungs without inflicting significant added injury and can be used to assess, maintain and treat injured donor lungs.
Journal ArticleDOI

Restrictive allograft syndrome (RAS): a novel form of chronic lung allograft dysfunction.

TL;DR: RAS is a novel form of CLAD that exhibits characteristics of peripheral lung fibrosis and significantly affects survival of lung transplant patients.
Journal ArticleDOI

Functional Repair of Human Donor Lungs by IL-10 Gene Therapy

TL;DR: A gene therapy treatment protocol to repair lungs after removal from the donor and before transplantation into patients, investigating the potential to use gene therapy with an adenoviral vector encoding human interleukin-10 (AdhIL-10) to repair injured donor lungs ex vivo before transplanting.
Journal ArticleDOI

Restrictive allograft syndrome post lung transplantation is characterized by pleuroparenchymal fibroelastosis

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors found that pleuroparenchymal fibroelastosis is a major histopathologic correlate of restrictive allograft syndrome, and was often found concurrently with diffuse alveolar damage.
