The differences in chronic lung allograft dysfunction (CLAD) between living-donor lobar lung transplantation (LDLLT) and cadaveric lung transplantation (CLT) remain unclear. We conducted this study to compare the impact of CLAD on the outcomes after LDLLT vs. CLT.
METHODS:
We conducted a retrospective review of the data of 97 recipients of bilateral lung transplantation, including 51 recipients of LDLLT and 46 recipients of CLT.
RESULTS:
The CLAD-free survival and overall survival after LDLLT were similar to those after CLT. CLAD and restrictive allograft syndrome (RAS), but not bronchiolitis obliterans syndrome (BOS), developed significantly later after LDLLT than after CLT (p = 0.015 and p = 0.035). Consequently, patients with CLAD and RAS, but not those with BOS, after LDLLT had a significantly better overall survival than those after CLT (p = 0.037 and p = 0.0006). Furthermore, after the diagnosis of CLAD, the survival of patients with RAS after LDLLT tended to be better than that after CLT (p = 0.083).
CONCLUSION:
CLAD, especially RAS, appears to develop later after LDLLT than after CLT and seems to have a lower impact on the overall survival after LDLLT than that after CLT. en-copyright= kn-copyright= en-aut-name=SugimotoSeiichiro en-aut-sei=Sugimoto en-aut-mei=Seiichiro kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=1 ORCID= en-aut-name=YamamotoHaruchika en-aut-sei=Yamamoto en-aut-mei=Haruchika kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=2 ORCID= en-aut-name=KurosakiTakeshi en-aut-sei=Kurosaki en-aut-mei=Takeshi kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=3 ORCID= en-aut-name=OtaniShinji en-aut-sei=Otani en-aut-mei=Shinji kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=4 ORCID= en-aut-name=OkazakiMikio en-aut-sei=Okazaki en-aut-mei=Mikio kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=5 ORCID= en-aut-name=YamaneMasaomi en-aut-sei=Yamane en-aut-mei=Masaomi kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=6 ORCID= en-aut-name=ToyookaShinichi en-aut-sei=Toyooka en-aut-mei=Shinichi kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=7 ORCID= en-aut-name=OtoTakahiro en-aut-sei=Oto en-aut-mei=Takahiro kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=8 ORCID= affil-num=1 en-affil=Department of General Thoracic Surgery, Okayama University Hospital kn-affil= affil-num=2 en-affil=Department of General Thoracic Surgery, Okayama University Hospital kn-affil= affil-num=3 en-affil=Department of Organ Transplant Center, Okayama University Hospital kn-affil= affil-num=4 en-affil=Department of Organ Transplant Center, Okayama University Hospital kn-affil= affil-num=5 en-affil=Department of General Thoracic Surgery, Okayama University Hospital kn-affil= affil-num=6 en-affil=Department of General Thoracic Surgery, Okayama University Hospital kn-affil= affil-num=7 en-affil=Department of General Thoracic Surgery, Okayama University Hospital kn-affil= affil-num=8 en-affil=Department of Organ Transplant Center, Okayama University Hospital kn-affil= en-keyword=Bronchiolitis obliterans syndrome kn-keyword=Bronchiolitis obliterans syndrome en-keyword=Chronic lung allograft dysfunction kn-keyword=Chronic lung allograft dysfunction en-keyword=Living-donor kn-keyword=Living-donor en-keyword=Lung transplantation kn-keyword=Lung transplantation en-keyword=Rejection kn-keyword=Rejection en-keyword=Restrictive allograft syndrome kn-keyword=Restrictive allograft syndrome END start-ver=1.4 cd-journal=joma no-vol=70 cd-vols= no-issue=5 article-no= start-page=421 end-page=424 dt-received= dt-revised= dt-accepted= dt-pub-year=2016 dt-pub=201610 dt-online= en-article= kn-article= en-subject= kn-subject= en-title= kn-title=Balloon-expandable Metallic Stents for Airway Diseases en-subtitle= kn-subtitle= en-abstract= kn-abstract=Stent placement is an essential treatment for airway diseases. Although self-expandable metallic stents and silicone stents are commonly applied for the treatment of airway diseases, these stents are unsuitable for the treatment of small airway diseases encountered in pediatric patients and lung transplant recipients with airway complications. Currently, only vascular balloon-expandable metallic stents are available for the treatment of small airway diseases; however, little research has been conducted on the use of these stents in this field. We have launched a prospective feasibility study to clarify the safety and efficacy of balloon-expandable metallic stents for the treatment of airway diseases. en-copyright= kn-copyright= en-aut-name=OhkiTakashi en-aut-sei=Ohki en-aut-mei=Takashi kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=1 ORCID= en-aut-name=SugimotoSeiichiro en-aut-sei=Sugimoto en-aut-mei=Seiichiro kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=2 ORCID= en-aut-name=KurosakiTakeshi en-aut-sei=Kurosaki en-aut-mei=Takeshi kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=3 ORCID= en-aut-name=OtaniShinji en-aut-sei=Otani en-aut-mei=Shinji kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=4 ORCID= en-aut-name=MiyoshiKentaroh en-aut-sei=Miyoshi en-aut-mei=Kentaroh kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=5 ORCID= en-aut-name=YamaneMasaomi en-aut-sei=Yamane en-aut-mei=Masaomi kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=6 ORCID= en-aut-name=MiyoshiShinichiro en-aut-sei=Miyoshi en-aut-mei=Shinichiro kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=7 ORCID= en-aut-name=OtoTakahiro en-aut-sei=Oto en-aut-mei=Takahiro kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=8 ORCID= affil-num=1 en-affil=Department of Thoracic Surgery, Okayama University Hospital kn-affil= affil-num=2 en-affil=Department of Thoracic Surgery, Okayama University Hospital kn-affil= affil-num=3 en-affil=Department of Organ Transplant Center, Okayama University Hospital kn-affil= affil-num=4 en-affil=Department of Organ Transplant Center, Okayama University Hospital kn-affil= affil-num=5 en-affil=Department of Thoracic Surgery, Okayama University Hospital kn-affil= affil-num=6 en-affil=Department of Thoracic Surgery, Okayama University Hospital kn-affil= affil-num=7 en-affil=Department of Thoracic Surgery, Okayama University Hospital kn-affil= affil-num=8 en-affil=Department of Organ Transplant Center, Okayama University Hospital kn-affil= en-keyword=metallic stent kn-keyword=metallic stent en-keyword=airway disease kn-keyword=airway disease en-keyword=lung transplantation kn-keyword=lung transplantation en-keyword=airway complication kn-keyword=airway complication en-keyword=airway malignancy kn-keyword=airway malignancy END
