We report the case of a 56-year-old patient who underwent left single lung transplantation for idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF). Despite the high level of immunosuppression after the surgery, there was rapid progression to IPF in the native (right) lung as demonstrated by thoracoscopic lung biopsy. After 104 days on mechanical ventilation (MV), the patient underwent right lung transplant and was discharged from the hospital on postoperative day 26.
我们报告了一例56岁的患者,该患者因特发性肺纤维化(IPF)接受了左单肺移植。尽管术后免疫抑制水平较高,但经胸腔镜肺活检证实,其原(右)肺的IPF仍迅速进展。在接受机械通气(MV)104天后,该患者接受了右肺移植,并于术后第26天出院。
