[Unilateral lung transplantation in panlobular emphysema].

Out of 8 unilateral transplantations, 5 were performed for panlobular emphysema. The operation and the post-operative period were highly satisfactory, although the oldest patients, those who had lost much weight, had prolonged post-operative asthenia. Only 2 patients could be followed up for a sufficient length of time; the functional result is favourable, except for stenosis of the suture in one case.
