Understanding your care
Lung transplant for advanced respiratory disease
Lung transplant replaces one or both severely diseased lungs with donated lungs. It is considered only after advanced respiratory disease has progressed despite appropriate medical treatment.
Evaluation reviews the lung diagnosis, other organ function, infection risk, rehabilitation potential, support system, and ability to follow lifelong care.
