1 Initial experience with two sequential anterolateral thoracotomies for bilateral lung transplantation  Shahrokh Taghavi, MD, Tudor Bı̂rsan, MD, Rainald Seitelberger, MD, Natascha Kupilik, MD, Peter Mares, MD, Andreas Zuckermann, MD, Walter Klepetko, MD  The Annals of Thoracic Surgery  Volume 67, Issue 5, Pages (May 1999) DOI: /S (99)

2 Fig 1 Vital capacity (VC%) and forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV1%) as percent of the predicted value, and Tiffeneau-Index (FEV1/VC) at the first spirometry, 3 weeks after BLTX through bilateral sequential anterolateral thoracotomy (n = 13, white bars) and clamshell incision (n = 8, black bars). There is a significant greater VC% (p = 0.043) and a trend towards greater FEV1% (p = 0.065) in patients operated through bilateral anterolateral thoracotomy. The Annals of Thoracic Surgery  , DOI: ( /S (99) )

3 Fig 2 Patient after BLTX through two thoracotomies. The separate incisions of the two anterolateral thoracotomies can be seen. The Annals of Thoracic Surgery  , DOI: ( /S (99) )
