Purpose : Survival is significantly shorter after lung transplantation compared to other solid organ transplantation, with chronic rejection as a contributing factor. This study was aimed to evaluate the long-term survival and chronic rejection rate after lung transplantation in a single institution.

Methods : From 2010 to 2017, 213 patients underwent lung transplantation in our institute. Ninety-four patients were excluded because of death within 1 year after surgery or lack of follow-up pulmonary function test data. The patients were divided into two groups according to the presence or absence of grade ≥2 bronchiolitis obliterans syndrome (BOS). Data on baseline characteristics, perioperative outcomes, pulmonary function test results, and survival were analyzed.

Results : Twenty-nine patients (24.4%) developed chronic lung allograft dysfunction (CLAD), of whom 19 (65.5%) had grade ≥2 BOS. The preoperative characteristics did not significantly differ between the groups. The incidence rates of acute cellular rejection episode (11% vs 31.6%), fungal infection (24% vs 52.6%), and CMV reactivation (35% vs 68.4%) were significantly higher in the grade ≥2 BOS group. In the multivariable analysis, acute cellular rejection episode (hazard ratio [HR], 8.687; p=0.003) and fungal infection (HR, 4.553; p=0.023) were significant risk factors of grade ≥2 BOS. The 3-year overall survival rate was 84.5%, and the CLAD-free survival rate was 76.9% in the 1-year conditional survivors.

Conclusion : Considering lung exposure to the environment and increased susceptibility to infection, management of postoperative infections is important in order to improve the long-term survival after lung transplantation.
