We have one experience with a 52-year-old CVID patient with a lifetime of sinopulmonary infections and subsequent bronchiectasis.  When her FEV1 was down to 33% (0.66L), she underwent successful bilateral lung transplantation in June of 2012 here in New Orleans. She is currently doing well, oxygen free, on IVIG, able to breathe again with correction of her pulmonary function (100% FEV1, 2.31L) and no evidence of rejection thus far.

In doing research regarding this case, I did come across 2 other case reports of CVID with chronic lung disease and transplantation.  One died from aspergillosis and the other had a similar outcome to ours.

Dr Matamoros in Mallorca asked me about  lung transplant in CVID.   Does anyone have a case ? Did it go well, or were there problems?
If so, what kinds?

Perhaps we could collect together some data,  so we are somewhat more knowledgeable about this?

We had three in NYC and wrote them up into a review, and I do not have any more information past that experience.
