Current Status of Lung Transplantation • Long term survival—50% die by 5 years • Bronchiolitis obliterans (chronic rejection)—primary cause of poor survival • Future of lung transplantation is prevent bronchiolitis obliterans

Clinical Manifestations of Chronic Rejection • Two methods for the diagnosis of chronic rejection • Histologically through transbronchial biopsy (OB) • Clinically through sustained decline in pulmonary function (Bronchiolitis Obliterans Syndrome, BOS) • OB and BOS are histologic and clinical manifestations of the same process • Patients develop progressive shortness of breath, graft failure, airflow obstruction, recurrent pulmonary infections • Once chronic rejection develops, airway damage is progressive and irreversible • Patients die of graft failure/pneumonia

New Concept: Avoid Increasing Systemic Immunosuppression Non alloimmune factors: • Infection • GERD • Others Immune activation Increase systemic immune suppression BOS
Pathway to Chronic Rejection Non-alloimmune stimuli Airway ischemia Viruses Bacterial - PSEUDOMONAS Oxidant stress Reflux Alloimmune stimuli Recurrent acute vascular rejection Lymphocytic bronchitis Epithelial injury Inflammation Fibroblastic repair
Acute Rejection Acute rejection is a perivascular processdiagnosed by transbronchial biopsy
Separate Interventions for Separate Processes rejection and ongoing injury, inflammation and fibrosis ending in bronchiolitis obliterans Systemic immunosuppression Systemic administration to avert vascular rejection, halting lymphocytic recruitment and activation
