Lung Transplant in Bangalore

Overview 

Bilateral and unilateral lung transplant services at Manipal Hospitals Bangalore offer advanced surgical care and comprehensive post-operative support for complex respiratory conditions and long-term rehabilitation services. Our multidisciplinary team brings expertise in patient selection, donor coordination, and perioperative management to ensure safer outcomes and personalised treatment plans. For those searching specifically for a lung transplant in Bangalore, Manipal Hospitals Bangalore provides world-class facilities, cellular laboratory support, and family-centred care pathways.

 

How It Works

Initial evaluation at Manipal Hospitals Bangalore includes detailed clinical assessment, pulmonary function testing, and imaging to determine suitability for the chosen transplant approach. The multidisciplinary team then discusses donor types, conditioning protocols, and expected timelines with patients and families to set clear expectations and informed consent. Conditioning regimens are personalised, balancing disease control and organ tolerance, while specialised nursing and infection control measures prepare patients for admission and graft infusion. On transplantation day, the donor lung is implanted using refined surgical techniques with continuous physiological monitoring provided by anaesthesia and critical care specialists. 

 

Postoperative protocols focus on ventilatory support, pain control, graft surveillance, and early mobilisation to reduce complications and promote respiratory rehabilitation. Patients spend time in specialised isolation rooms with targeted antibiotic protocols and daily lab monitoring to ensure graft function and prompt treatment of any emerging issues. Rehabilitation is integrated early, combining physiotherapy, breathing retraining, and nutritional support to rebuild strength while multidisciplinary clinics coordinate ongoing outpatient surveillance. As one of the recognised lung transplant hospitals in Bangalore, Manipal Hospitals Bangalore ensures continuity of care from surgery to long-term follow-up.
