A 24-year-old man with cystic fibrosis and marked reduction of volume of the left hemithorax caused by skeletal asymmetry and mediastinal shift underwent successful right single lung transplantation with simultaneous left pneumonectomy. Despite significant preoperative microbiologic contamination, it proved possible to sterilize the pneumonectomy space and no airway complications occurred. Good long-term results have been achieved, and the historic assumption that single lung transplantation is unsuitable for patients with septic lung disease is challenged.
一名24岁患有囊性纤维化的男性，因骨骼不对称和纵隔移位导致左半胸容积显著减小，接受了成功的右侧单肺移植并同期进行了左肺切除术。尽管术前存在明显的微生物污染，但事实证明能够对肺切除空间进行消毒，且未发生气道并发症。已取得良好的长期效果，以往认为单肺移植不适用于患有感染性肺病患者的假设受到了挑战。
