From June 1989 to December 1994, 95 patients underwent 100 pulmonary and cardiopulmonary transplants. The patients were 58 men and 37 women with an average age of 39 +/- 15 years. In 15 of the cases, indication for a transplant was infectious pathology, in 35 of the cases; vascular pathology, in 23 of the cases; emphysema and in 22 of the cases the causes were various. 31 of the patients underwent a heart/lung transplant, 14 underwent a sequential two-lung transplant, 14 underwent a sequential two-lung transplant and 50 underwent a single lung transplant; 5 patient underwent a second transplant. The global survival percentage is 56,4 +/- 5,2 to one year, 48,5 +/- 5,4 to two years, 42,9 +/- 5,7 to three years. There are non significant statistical differences for the survival level according to the type of transplant. The best functional results were obtained from patients affected with emphysema. The survival data for patients affected with infectious pathology are not very encouraging.
