    Abstract "Organ shortage remains a limiting factor in lung transplantation. Traditionally, donation after brain death has been the main source of lungs used for transplantation; however, to meet the demand of patients requiring lung transplantation it is crucial to find innovative methods for organ donation. The implementation of extended donors, lung donation after cardiac death (DCD), the use of ex-vivo lung perfusion (EVLP) systems, and more recently the acceptance of hepatitis C donors have started to close the gap between organ donors and recipients in need of lung transplantation. This article focuses on the expansion of donor lungs for transplantation after DCD, the use of EVLP in evaluating extended criteria lungs, and the use of lung grafts from donors with hepatitis C."

    Abstract Introduction: Multifocal lung adenocarcinoma (MFLA) is becoming increasingly recognized as a distinct subset of lung cancer, with unique biology, disease course, and treatment outcomes. While definitions remain controversial, MFLA is characterized by the development and concurrent presence of multiple independent (non-metastatic) lesions on the lung adenocarcinoma spectrum. Disease progression typically follows an indolent course measured in years, with a lower propensity for nodal and distant metastases than other more common forms of non-small cell lung cancer.
    Areas covered: Traditional imaging and histopathological analyses of tumor biopsies are frequently unable to fully characterize the disease, prompting interest in molecular diagnosis. We highlight some of the key questions in the field, including accurate definitions to identify and stage MLFA, molecular tests to stratify patients and treatment decisions, and the lack of clinical trial data to delineate best management for this poorly understood subset of lung cancer patients. We review the existing literature and progress toward a genomic diagnosis for this unique disease entity.
    Expert opinion: Multifocal lung adenocarcinoma behaves differently than other forms of non-small cell lung cancer. Progress in molecular diagnosis may enhance potential for accurate definition, diagnosis, and optimizing treatment approach.

    Abstract Background: Epinephrine is recommended without an apparent ceiling dosage during cardiac arrest. However, excessive alpha- and beta-adrenergic stimulation may contribute to unnecessarily high aortic afterload, promote post-arrest myocardial dysfunction, and result in cerebral microvascular insufficiency in patients receiving extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation (ECPR).
    Methods: This was a retrospective cohort study of adults (≥ 18 years) who received ECPR at large academic ECMO center from 2018 to 2022. Patients were grouped based on the amount of epinephrine given during cardiac arrest into low (≤ 3 mg) and high (> 3 mg) groups. The primary endpoint was neurologic outcome at hospital discharge, defined by cerebral performance category (CPC). Multivariable logistic regression was used to assess the relationship between cumulative epinephrine dosage during arrest and neurologic outcome.
    Results: Among 51 included ECPR cases, the median age of patients was 60 years, and 55% were male. The mean cumulative epinephrine dose administered during arrest was 6.2 mg but ranged from 0 to 24 mg. There were 18 patients in the low-dose (≤ 3 mg) and 25 patients in the high-dose (> 3 mg) epinephrine groups. Favorable neurologic outcome at discharge was significantly greater in the low-dose (55%) compared to the high-dose (24%) group (p = 0.025). After adjusting for age, those who received higher doses of epinephrine during the arrest were more likely to have unfavorable neurologic outcomes at hospital discharge (odds ratio 4.6, 95% CI 1.3, 18.0, p = 0.017).
    Conclusion: After adjusting for age, cumulative epinephrine doses above 3 mg during cardiac arrest may be associated with unfavorable neurologic outcomes after ECPR and require further investigation.

    Abstract Combined heart-lung transplant (HTLx) is the most durable treatment available for end-stage heart and lung failure. Many patients are unable to receive combined organs due to organ availability and allocation policies prioritizing separate heart or lung transplantation. While an average of 45 HTLxs have been performed per year in the United States half the listed patients do not receive organs. Recently, donation after circulatory death (DCD) utilizing normothermic regional perfusion (NRP) has been utilized for heart allografts with excellent results, and here, we present a case utilizing mobile NRP to procure a heart and lung block from a circulatory death donor and successful implantation for a recipient in a separate center.
