Abstract:
Objective To improve the efficiency of donated organs and to investigate the possi- bility and operation protocol of heart and lung transplantation from the same donor to different reci- pients.Methods The organs of heart and lung were obtained from three donors through the method of orthotopic lavage and whole cutting,and transplanted to end-stage patients with heart diseases or lung diseases.First,the donor was subjected to mechanical ventilation,thoracotomy and lavage of heart and lung.The heart and lung were cut in whole and separated.The recipients were subjected the re- trograde lavage of heart and lung.In the patients receiving unilateral lung transcription,the left and right lungs were isolated.Among 3 recipients of lung transcription,one underwent left unilateral lung transplantation and 2 bilateral lung transplantation.Three cases received orthotopic cardiac transplan- tation by using bicaval orthotopic heart transplantation (BOHT) anastomosis method.Results One recipient of left unilateral lung transplantation recovered well after operation.In one recipient under- going bilateral lung transplantation,right upper lung embolism occurred.After re-operation of cutting the right upper lung on the 9th day of the first one,he recovered from the illness.In another recipient receiving bilateral lung transplantation,anastomotic stenosis of trathea and pulmonary infection occurred after operation.After expectant treatment,he recovered from the illness,but died from serious infection 7 months after operation.One of the heart recipients was found having renal failure of first stage,and recovered from disease after hemodialysis treatment.Quality of life was good in all 3 heart recipients after operation and their heart function achieved the restoration of 0-Ⅰstage.Conclusion The treatment protocol of transplantation from the same donor to different recipients at the same time, which can make full use of the organs from donors,is feasible and has good effect.
