title: Management of severe bronchial ischemia after bilateral sequential lung transplantation.

A combination of initial conservative treatment with silicone stenting and late bilateral retransplantation under stable conditions resulted in good clinical outcome. Factors in decision making and technical aspects of the stenting procedure are discussed.
