Objective: To investigate the efficacy and prognosis of lung transplantation (LT) for end-stage bronchiolitis obliterans syndrome (BOS) after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) . Methods: The clinical data of eight cases with end-stage BOS after allo-HSCT who were treated by LT in our hospital were retrospectively analyzed. Results: Eight patients with hematological malignancy underwent allo-HSCT, and the median age was 23 (12-40) years. The donors are parents or siblings. Severe BOS occurred in 8 patients after allo-HSCT, the median age for LT was 27.5 (13-47) years. The median interval between allo-HSCT and LT was 69 (21-132) months. The median follow-up time for 8 patients after LT was 15 (6-63) months, 7 patients survived, 1 patient died of pulmonary hemorrhage 15 months after LT treatment. Of the survivors, three had BOS again, and one of them received reduplicated lung transplantation. Conclusion: LT is an effective treatment for patients with severe BOS after HSCT.
