title: [Complications of experimental lung transplantations].
abstract: Experimental lung transplantations are burdened with a very high rate of complications even is there is a strict consideration of sterile precautions. These complications occur predominantly directly in connection with organ rejection. Extrathoracic complications are rare and predominantly attributed to arterial embolism. All untreated receivers of lung had thoracic complications in autopsy. Only 5% of immune suppressively treated receivers were free of complications. Most frequent complications are pleuropulmonary infections. Weighty complications are haemorrhagic infarcts of the transplant and insufficiency of the bronchus. Only without complications can survived about years the chronic rejection.
