NUMBER OF LUNG TRANSPLANTS REPORTED BY YEAR AND PROCEDURE TYPE NOTE: This figure includes only the lung transplants that are reported to the ISHLT Transplant Registry. As such, this should not be construed as representing changes in the number of lung transplants performed worldwide. ISHLT 2009
AVERAGE CENTER VOLUMELung Transplants: January 1, 2000 - June 30, 2008 ISHLT 2009
Lung Transplantation in KSA • 4 transplants at KFH – Jeddah 1991 - 1994 • 1996 ,first single lung transplant at KFSH & RC (Riyadh ) • First bilateral lung transplant at KFSH & RC (Riyadh ) 1998 • 2001 , the lung transplant unit was established at KFSH & RC ( Jeddah) • Dec. 23,2001, the first successful bilateral lung transplant in the Middle East was performed at KFSH & RC (Jeddah)
KFSH&RC – Jeddah Lung Transplantation Program • Patients with end-stage lung diseases, N=13 • Indications: • Pulmonary fibrosis (n=8) • Bronchiectasis (n=2) • Pulmonary HTN (n=1) • COPD (n=1) • LAM (n=1)
Types of transplantation: • Single lung (n=10) • Bilateral lung (n=3) Results: 10/13 survived Mortality 3/13 (n=1 liver failure, n=1 stroke, n=1 T.B.) 1 year survival 95 %
Lung transplantation in KSA • KFSH & RC ( Jeddah ) is the only active hospital performing lung transplantation in the Middle East • IPF is the commonest indication followed by Broncheictasis • 95% 1 year survival

LUNG TRANSPLANTS:Transplant Recipient Age by Year of TransplantTransplants: January 1, 1987 – June 30, 2008 ISHLT 2009
Lung transplantation evaluation process • Cardiothoracic Transplant Surgeon • Transplant Pulmonologist • Transplant Coordinator • Transplant Anesthiologist • Infectious Disease • Nutritionist • Social services • Psychologist • Physiotherapist
Recipient Selective Criteria: • End-stage pulmonary disease with life expectancy < 2 yrs. • Absence of severe extra pulmonary diseases. • Strong motivation towards the idea of lung transplantation. • Severe functional limitation, but potential for rehabilitation. • Excellent psychosocial support. • No current smoking or substances abuse
Indications: • Obstructive air way disease (29%) - COPD - Alpha 1 antitrypsin deficiency • Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (19%) • Septic pulmonary disease (16%) - Bronchiectasis - cystic fibrosis • Primary pulmonary hypertension (11%)
Other Varieties (11%) e.g. - sarcoidosis - lymphangioliomyomatosis (LAM) - eosinophilic granuloma
Contra-indications: • Age > 65 years • Active smoking • Poor compliance with the treatment • Severe active infections (HIV, Hepatitis B & C)
Con’t. • Active malignancy within the past two years. • Drugs or alcohol abuse. • Dysfunction of major other organs - renal dysfunction - untreatable CAD or LV dysfunction - liver dysfunction • Ventilator dependence - high mortality • BMI < 16 and BMI > 30 • Severe osteoporosis
Donor Selection Criteria (Standard): • Age < 55 years • ABO blood group compatibility • No significant lung diseases • Absence of chest trauma • Smoking Hx < 20 pack years • Clear CXR • PaO2 > 300mm Hg on F102 1.0 and PEEP 5 cm for 5 min. • Bronchoscopy – clear • Sputum gram stain- Absence of organisms
Donor-Recipient Matching Issues • ABO blood group is the most antigen system • Panel reactive antibodies • Size matching Undesized: persistent pneumothorax and increase work of breathing. Oversized: atelectasis and distortion of anatomy
Donor Supply • Increasinggap between demand and supply • Newer strategies A. Marginal donors Do not fill these criteria:- 1- Age < 55 yrs 2- Clear Chest X-ray 3- No smoking history ` 4- Sputum gram stain negative 5- Normal gas exchange
Donor Supply • Living lobar transplantation • Harvesting left lower lobe from one healthy donor & right lower lobe from another( 25% of TLC for each) • Pioneered by University of southern California (Vaughn Starns). • Impressive result in both children & adults • Associated with Significant morbidity but no fatalities reported
Donor Supply • Non -heart beating donor (NHBD) • A donor whose death is defined by irreversible cessation of circulatory and respiratory functions (UDDA) • Period of time between a systole and retrieval is controversial , recommendation is 2-5min • NHBD contributes < 1% of the numbers of transplants in USA • In Holland 50% of cadaveric transplants are from NHBD
Donor Supply • Xenotransplantation Initial enthusiasm – unlimited donor supply • Hardening factors 1. Severe immune response 2. Apparent incompatibilities between the coagulation systems of the two species European resp.journal 2003;supp

Lung transplantation • Single or double lung • Wait time -Blood Type -Size • Severity of illness -Life expectancy while on the waiting list -Outcome post transplant • Surgical time (6-8 hours) • Hospital stay (14-21 days) • Follow up ( life long, frequent office visits)
