Outcomes of Donor-Recipient Gender Mismatched Lung Transplantation in the Eurotransplant Area

2019

Purpose An effect of donor-recipient gender mismatching on long-term survival outcomes following organ transplantation has been postulated but remains controversial. We aimed to investigate the influence of gender mismatches on long-term survival after lung transplantation in the Eurotransplant area. Methods In this retrospective, multicentre study in the Eurotransplant area, all lung transplants performed from DBD lungs in the period from 01.01.2000 until 31.12.2015 were included. A total of 7688 lung transplant recipients (≥ 14 years old) for long-term survival and the effect of gender mismatches (Kaplan-Meier, multivariate regression). Results More men (4079; 52 %) were transplanted comp…

Exceptional LAS Requests in Eurotransplant: Analysis of an 8-year Effort to Improve Lung Allocation for Precarious Patients

2020

PURPOSE: Following introduction of the lung allocation score (LAS) in 2011, Eurotransplant member centers can apply for an exceptional LAS (eLAS) if the calculated LAS insufficiently reflects the perceived transplant benefit for a patient, specifically in case of primary pulmonary hypertension group 1 and 4; combined lung+non-renal transplantation; rare diseases; or extracorporeal support. Each eLAS proposal is evaluated by a LAS Review Board, consisting of ≥3 lung transplant experts, which subsequently declines or approves the eLAS request in consensus of ≥3 votes. In case of a lower than accepted score, predefined business rules to assign LAS percentiles are used. METHODS: A retrospective…
