I n an effort to address the donor shortage issue, living-donor lobar lung transplantation has been performed with satisfactory intermediate survival and functional results.1 Because a limited amount of lung tissue is transplanted, this type of operation seems to be best suited for children2 and small adults and has been applied almost exclusively in patients with cystic fibrosis. To our knowledge, this is the first reported case of living-donor lobar lung transplantation for primary pulmonary hypertension (PPH) in an adult.
