Abstract
Experimental surgery in animals remains an irreplaceable model for the clinical application of a new technique. We performed a single lung allotransplantation in young pigs. The pigs were organized into groups: 1) 6 to assess the surgical anatomy; 2) 10 to receive left transplantation; 3) 3 to study the pathophysiology of the transplanted lung. The preliminary results demonstrated that the surgical model is useful.
