En stor andel av de lungor som doneras varje år kan inte användas för transplantation. Forskare vid Skånes universitetssjukhus och Lunds universitet har i en studie på djur nått resultat som ger hopp om att fler donerade lungor ska kunna rädda liv i framtiden. En pilotstudie har nu inletts för att se om behandlingen har samma positiva resultat hos människor. Varje år blir cirka 190 avlidna persone
