Transplant pneumonectomy is a rarely performed procedure. It is occasionally carried out in the course of retransplantation. To our knowledge, resection of a transplanted lung without its replacement and with successful outcome in the adult has not been previously reported. We present a case of elective left transplant pneumonectomy in a 38-year-old man 6 years after left single-lung transplant. At 12 months after resection, the patient remains well, with good exercise tolerance.
移植肺切除术是一种很少实施的手术。它偶尔会在再次移植过程中进行。据我们所知,此前尚未有在成人中切除移植肺且不进行替换而获得成功结果的报道。我们报告一例38岁男性在接受左单肺移植6年后进行择期左移植肺切除术的病例。切除术后12个月,患者情况良好,运动耐量佳。
