[Pulmonary homotransplantation in the dog with contralateral ligation of the pulmonary artery and subsequent contralateral pneumonectomy].
Five mongrel dogs underwent a left side pulmonary homotransplantation and simultaneous contralateral pulmonary artery ligation using a standardized operative technique. The contralateral lung of the recipient was successfully removed on the first postoperative day. From the present study may be concluded that the transplanted lung is able to provide adequate respiratory function immediate postoperatively and is able to tolerate the total cardiac output in the presence of increased vascular resistence of the recipient contralateral lung.
