Lung Transplant
The University of Michigan Transplant Center is the largest and most experienced lung transplant center in Michigan, and among the largest in the nation, with 20-40 lung transplants performed each year, and patient survival rate at one year at 90% – and we offer services that are not available widely, including Ambulatory ECMO (Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation) – an alternative to a ventilator that allows patients waiting for lung transplant to remain active and stay healthier, plus novel clinical trials available in few centers across the U.S.
