Lung transplantation of ventilator-dependent patients. The Washington University Lung Transplantation Group.
Chest 1992 January
During the last few years, lung transplantation has been extended to patients with a variety of end-stage lung diseases, but recipient selection guidelines have remained relatively strict. Ventilator-dependent patients have traditionally been considered poor candidates for transplantation.
