Here is the latest wonder from the world of medicine.It’s going to be great news for the people affected with the lung diseases and people who are waiting for lung transplant.The transplant surgeons at Toronto General Hospital, University Health Network used a new technique to repair an injured donor lung that was unsuitable for transplant, and then successfully transplanted it into a patient. The use of this technique could significantly expand the lung donor organ pool and improve outcomes after transplantation. This technique, the Toronto XVIVO Lung Perfusion System, allows the surgeons the opportunity to assess and treat and repair the injured donor lungs, while they are outside the body, to make them suitable for transplantation. so with this the problem scarcity for lungs can be reduced.
