A technique is presented for transplantation of the heart and left lung en
bloc in the dog. In contrast to the erratic respiratory pattern that occurs
in subprimate animals after total cardiopulmonary denervation, preservation
of innervation to the native right lung results in a normal respiratory
pattern in the dog and has allowed survival of one animal for 68 days. This
model is proposed as potentially suitable for physiologic and immunologic
studies of cardiopulmonary transplantation in the dog.
