Lung transplantation is a life-saving treatment option for patients with end-stage pulmonary disease. It is a complex procedure involving the removal of damaged or diseased lungs and the replacement with a healthy lung from a donor. The first successful lung transplant was performed in 1963, and since then, advancements in surgical techniques, immunosuppression, and organ preservation have improved outcomes for patients undergoing transplantation. However, lung transplantation is still associated with significant morbidity and mortality, and the availability of donor lungs remains a limiting factor.
