Lung Transplantation, brain death donor
Abstract
It has been more than 50 years since James Hardy performed the first case of human lung transplant in Mississippi in 1963. In Vietnam in February 2018, the first bilateral lung transpant from brain death donors was performed in 108 Military Central Hospital. In this article, we will present the post-operative care period of that case and discuss some issues related to intensive care of lung transplant patients.
