Abstract

Since 1987, 21 children under 16 years of age have undergone combined heart and lung transplantation at Great Ormond Street Hospital, London. All children had terminal pulmonary or cardiopulmonary disease. Eight children died one day to 21 months after operation. Actuarial survival was 76% (SEM 10) at 1 year and 60% (SEM 12) at 3 and 4 years after transplantation. 13 children were alive, and all took part in all age-appropriate activities
