Allogeneic Left Atrial and Pulmonary Vein Transplant for Pulmonary Vein Stenosis
Sponsor: Boston Children's Hospital
Summary
This is a prospective, single center, safety and feasibility trial to evaluate the transplantation of the left atrium and pulmonary veins in patients with pulmonary vein stenosis. Consented patients will be listed for transplantation. Once a suitable donor has been identified, the left atrium, pulmonary veins and complete lung block will be harvested from the donor and transported to Boston Children's Hospital as is the procedure for routine lung transplantation patients. The left atrium and pulmonary veins will be transplanted into the recipient. The recipient will receive the normal immunosuppression protocol used for heart transplantation. This pilot study will include 5 patients.
