Primary Graft Dysfunction After Lung Transplantation.
Primary graft dysfunction is a form of acute injury after lung transplantation that is associated with significant short- and long-term morbidity and mortality. Multiple mechanisms contribute to the pathogenesis of primary graft dysfunction, including ischemia reperfusion injury, epithelial cell death, endothelial cell dysfunction, innate immune activation, oxidative stress, and release of infl...
متن کاملLong Term Impact of Primary Graft Dysfunction after Lung Transplantation
According to the International Society for Heart and Lung Transplantation (ISHLT) Registry, graft failure accounted for 24.7% of deaths within 30 days of transplantation among adult lung recipients between 1992 and 2012 [1]. Although important details distinguishing different causes of early graft failure may be missing from the Registry data, it is likely that primary graft dysfunction (PGD) i...
متن کاملInfluence of right ventricular function on the development of primary graft dysfunction after lung transplantation.
BACKGROUND Primary graft dysfunction (PGD) remains a significant cause of lung transplant postoperative morbidity and mortality. The underlying mechanisms of PGD development are not completely understood. This study analyzed the effect of right ventricular function (RVF) on PGD development. METHODS A retrospective analysis of a prospectively assessed cohort was performed at a single instituti...
متن کاملSoluble p-selectin and the risk of primary graft dysfunction after lung transplantation.
BACKGROUND Platelet activation with subsequent neutrophilic adherence to the vasculature initiates ischemia-reperfusion injury. We hypothesized that higher plasma P-selectin levels reflecting platelet activation would therefore be associated with primary graft dysfunction (PGD) after lung transplantation. METHODS In a prospective, multicenter cohort study of 376 patients who had undergone lun...
متن کاملExpression profiling of human donor lungs to understand primary graft dysfunction after lung transplantation.
Lung transplantation is the treatment of choice for end-stage pulmonary diseases. A limited donor supply has resulted in 4,000 patients on the waiting list. Currently, 10-20% of donor organs offered for transplantation are deemed suitable under the selection criteria, of which 15-25% fail due to primary graft dysfunction (PGD). This has spawned efforts to re-examine the current selection criter...
