Abstract

In this chapter, we focused on introducing the experience with ABO-incompatible lung transplantation, including the selection of patients and donors, the indications for lung transplantation, the perioperative treatment of ABO-incompatible lung transplantation, and the treatment of postoperative complications. In the end, we showed two case reports of ABO-incompatible lung transplantation.
