Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is a rapidly progressive lung disease with a high mortality rate. Although lung transplantation (LTx) is a well-established treatment for a variety of chronic pulmonary diseases, LTx for acute lung failure (due to ARDS) remains controversial. We reviewed posttransplant outcome of ARDS patients from three high-volume European transplant centers. Demographics and clinical data were collected and analyzed. Viral infection was the main reason for ARDS (n = 7/13, 53.8%). All patients were admitted to ICU and required mechanical ventilation, 11/13 were supported with ECMO at the time of listing. They were granted a median LAS of 76 (IQR 50-85) and waited for a median of 3 days (IQR 1.5-14). Postoperative...
