Underlying disease was classified as restrictive (n = 18 / 56%) or obstructive (n = 12 / 38%) lung disease (Table 1: Demographic data and postoperative outcome). Two patients with prior sLTx bronchiolitis obliterans syndrome (BOS 6%) underwent sLTx of the native contralateral lung. Sex was distributed equally (male n = 16, female n = 16) among recipients—recipient age ranged from 38 to 67 years (mean 58 ± 7 years). A high LAS (> 50) was present in 6 patients, median LAS was 38 (range 31–92).
