Article Synopsis
- The study examines lung transplantation (LT) outcomes in patients aged 65 and older compared to younger recipients, emphasizing that age shouldn't be a strict barrier for the procedure.
- Researchers conducted a retrospective analysis of patients who underwent LT at Bichat Hospital, tracking 90-day mortality and other long-term health markers.
- Results showed that while elderly patients had better short-term lung function post-transplant, their overall survival rates and mortality within the first year were similar to those of younger patients.
Background: Size matching between donors and recipients is a major issue in lung transplantation (LTx), especially in patients with restrictive lung disease (RLD). This study aims to evaluate computed tomography (CT) as an additional method for defining the total lung capacity (TLC) in patients with end-stage interstitial disease awaiting LTx.
Methods: Clinical data and CT scans from patients who underwent a first LTx from January 2014 to July 2018 in Bichat Hospital, Paris, were prospectively included in a database.

December 2022
For symptomatic buttock arteriovenous malformations (AVMs), embolization techniques and surgical resection have been suggested as treatment options. Our aim was to evaluate the feasibility and long-term results after a single surgical resection. Twelve patients had undergone surgical resection without preoperative embolization.

The incidence, the topography, and the prognosis of COV-ATs remain poorly known. The objective of this study was to report the overall experience of the Greater Paris University Hospitals (Assistance Publique - Hopitaux de Paris, AP-HP) during the first pandemic wave of COVID-19 infection.
