🧠 Test your knowledge with our Case of the Week 👇 Drop your answer in the comments. We’ll share the correct answer on Thursday! ❓ A 12-year-old with severe pulmonary arterial hypertension has profound right ventricular dysfunction but preserved left ventricular function and no complex congenital heart disease. Which principle should guide procedure selection? A. Bilateral lung transplantation is contraindicated B. Do not assume heart–lung transplantation is mandatory; severe right ventricular dysfunction alone does not establish that need C. Single-lung transplantation is always preferred D. No transplant can reverse pulmonary vascular afterload 👉 Follow IPTA for the latest research, educational opportunities, and expert discussions. 🔗 tts.org/ipta-about/

🔬 Help Shape the Future of Kidney Transplantation! The Transplantation Society invites members of the global transplantation community to participate in a short survey on molecular biomarkers in kidney transplantation. The survey aims to identify unmet needs, experiences and perspectives among key stakeholders, including clinicians and transplant recipients and other consumers. 🕒 It takes just 5–10 minutes to share your insights and help identify priorities for the use of molecular biomarkers in kidney transplantation. Your perspective matters! Thank you! 🔗 Take the survey 👉redcap.sydney.edu.au/surveys… #KidneyTransplantation #Transplantation #Biomarkers #Research #TransplantTwitter #MedTwitter
