Abstract

During the last decade many strategies are developed in order to expand the donor pool. One of the strategies that bring more attention is the use of grafts from donors after circulatory death (DCD), also frequently referred to as nonheart-beating donors (NHBD). Here we offer a short and compressible, state of the art review of lung transplantation from DCD.
