A Case Report: Seven-Year Follow-Up of a Patient With Kartagener Syndrome Undergoing Bilateral Lung Transplantation.

Kartagener syndrome (KS) is a rare genetic disorder inherited in an autosomal recessive manner. Bronchiectasis is a major contributor to the morbidity associated with this syndrome. In end-stage cases of KS, bilateral lung transplantation (DLuTx) is considered a viable treatment option. This case report presents a 7-year follow-up of a KS patient who developed end-stage respiratory failure and subsequently underwent DLuTx. The case includes both surgical and postoperative challenges, ultimately resulting in a significant improvement in the patient's quality of life.
