Background.Donor-recipient oversizing based on predicted total lung capacity (pTLC) is associated with a reduced risk of primary graft dysfunction (PGD) following lung transplant but the effect varies with the recipient's diagnosis. Chest x-ray (CXR) measurements to estimate actual total lung capacity (TLC) could account for disease-related lung volume changes, but their role in size matching is unknown.Methods.We reviewed adult double lung transplant recipients 2007-2016 and measured apex-to-costophrenic-angle distance (=lung height) on pretransplant donor and recipient CXRs (oversized donor-recipient ratio >1; undersized
