Efficacy of convalescent plasma for the treatment of COVID-19 in lung transplant recipients: A multicenter French study.

Introduction: Lung transplant (LT) recipients are at greater risk of complications from COVID-19. Treatment options are limited partly due to interactions with immunosuppressive agents. Convalescent plasma (CP) is a potential treatment option, but it has not been extensively studied in LT patients.

Pregnancy and heart-lung transplantation.

The purpose of this study was to report a single center's experience of 5 new pregnancies following heart-lung transplantation. These 5 pregnancies gave rise to 4 live births. Vaginal delivery occurred at a mean of 38 +/- 1 weeks of amenorrhea (range, 37-39 weeks) and the mean birth weight was 3,143 +/- 757 grams (range, 2,270-3,990 grams).

[Mucoviscidosis: lung transplantation is always in order].

Unlabelled: THE ONLY SOLUTION: Despite significant progress in the management of patients with multiple sclerosis, lung transplantation remains the only chance for survival in those with severe respiratory failure.

Waiting List Inclusion Criteria: Lung function tests, the patientís general states and psychological and familial factors all contribute to determining inscription on lung transplantation waiting lists.

Technical Aspects: Heart-lung, monoblock two-lung and sequential two-lung transplantations are detailed according to the respective advantages and disadvantages.

[Pulmonary endodermal tumor resembling fetal lung. Low grade adenocarcinoma of the fetal lung type].

Pulmonary endodermal tumor resembling fetal lung is a rare pulmonary neoplasm, classified either within the pulmonary blastomas spectrum or as a subtype of adenocarcinoma. We report a case revealed by a fever in a 24-year-old woman. The tumor measured 9 cm and extended into the lower right bronchus.
