Lung Transplant Surgery
Before Going into the Operating Room
Prior to your surgery, you and your family will have a conversation with the Transplant Surgeon or someone from their team about the upcoming surgery, including risks, benefits, alternatives, and any donor risk factors that are applicable. This is a good time for you to ask any questions you may have. You will sign consent for surgery, anesthesia, and blood products (or a consent to refuse blood products, if that is your preference). 24 Lung Transplant Surgery
