Abstract :
We present a case of unilateral lung transplantation in which a segment of the donor’s descending aorta was used as a homograft for pulmonary artery augmentation in the donor lung. This technique can be used when the donor’s lung artery has been cut at the base of the hilum during the harvesting procedure.
