Lung transplant in India is very successful and people come from across the world to perform this surgery in India. For the lung transplant, donor and patient need to be available. Once the donor organ becomes available it will be evaluated by a team of doctors. If it passes the criteria set by them, the organ will be accepted for transplantation. Single lung, double lung, or combined heart-lung transplant will be done depending on the disease of the patient. Usually, patients with bronchiectasis, cystic fibrosis, and pulmonary hypertension will benefit from double lung transplantation. The transplantation will be performed under general anesthesia. The surgery usually takes anywhere between 6 to 10 hours depending on whether it is single or double lung and if a complication occurs. Immediately after the surgery, the patient will be admitted to a dedicated heart and lung transplant unit for recovery
