肺移植是治疗多种肺部疾病唯一有效的方法，术后很大程度上能改善患者的生活质量，生存期也得到明显延长。但肺移植与肝肾移植相比，全国除几个大中心以外，大多数中心移植例数较少，手术技术尚不成熟，严重制约了肺移植的发展。经过多年的努力，中国肺移植已经开始起步，且发展迅速，但国内肺移植面临多重困难，亟待制定对策处理。

Lung transplantation is the only effective method to treat some lung diseases, which can greatly improve the quality of life after operation and significantly prolong the survival. However, compared with liver and kidney transplantation, the numbers of lung transplantation are smaller in most transplant centers, and the operation technique is less mature, which largely restricted the development of lung transplantation. By years of efforts, the clinical practice of lung transplantation has experienced dramatic development in China, but countermeasures are required to deal with current enormous problems.
