Abstract

A 16-month-old boy who had a heart-lung transplantation is doing well 16 months postoperatively. The HLT can be a successful treatment for very young patients. Most of the postoperative management can be assessed with noninvasive techniques. Normally, the allograph grows with the recipient.
