Sequential single lung transplantation

Sequential single lung transplantation is a surgical procedure where one lung from a donor is transplanted into a recipient, followed by a second lung transplant, either from the same or a different donor, at a later time. This approach is used for patients with severe lung disease, allowing for improved lung function and quality of life. It can reduce the complications associated with a double lung transplant and may be more effective for certain patients. The goal is to restore normal breathing and enhance overall health by providing healthy lung tissue to the recipient.
