Lung in a Box: The Present and Future of Lung Preservation for Transplant

Lung in a Box: The Present and Future of Lung Preservation for Transplant

Take a listen into the wild and fascinating world of lung transplantation! One of the biggest challenges for any transplant is organ preservation to provide the best possible recovery and outcome for recipients. That’s especially important for lung transplant, which remains one of the most complex and challenging areas in the field of transplantation. This episode takes a deep dive into the lung transplant landscape and discusses new technologies and innovations that are revolutionizing the field. Jon Williams is joined by Dr. Elliot Wakeam, MD, a thoracic surgeon and lung transplant expert from University of Toronto to discuss the advent of ex-vivo lung perfusion (EVLP) systems and how that and other preservation techniques may impact the future of lung transplantation. Also, Dr. Wakeam provides unique perspectives as faculty from one of the best lung transplant programs in the world.
