[Morphological studies in the late period after autotransplantation of the left lung and removal of the right (intact) lung].
Morphological examinations were carried out in 3 animals, in which during the late period after left-side pulmonary autotransplantation the right lung was removed. The results during long-term survival of these animals showed the cardinal importance for success lying in anatomical sufficiency of vascular and bronchial anastomoses, fair compensatory capacity of external breathing, absence of severe structural changes in the autografted lung, ventilation of physiologic atelectases, and development of compensatory hypertrophy after resection of the intact lung. Examinations of nerval structures of the main bronchus of the autografted lung showed recovery of nerve fibers. The pulmonary autograft  guaranteed normal function of organism after resection of the intact lung. This confirms the functional and structural restitution of the organism.
