The transplanted lung should have an intact pulmonary artery. |

f******y 发帖数: 73 | 32 Because certain nerve connections to the lungs are cut during the procedure,
transplant recipients cannot feel the urge to cough or feel when their new
lungs are becoming congested. They must therefore make conscious efforts to
take deep breaths and cough in order to clear secretions from the lungs.

caused by lots of etilologies, including PBC, HBV, HCV, liver cancer,
medication overdose, alcohol abuse of cause, and so on and so forth. Lots of
patients can live quit a long time after the surgery.
