Spectrum of chronic lung allograft dysfunction pathology in human lung transplantation

Long-term survival after lung transplantation (LTx) remains limited by Chronic Lung Allograft Dysfunction (CLAD), which includes two main phenotypes: bronchiolitis obliterans syndrome (BOS) and restrictive allograft syndrome (RAS), with possible overlap. We aimed to detail and quantify pathological features of these CLAD sub-types.
