A man survived 48 hours without lungs using a custom artificial lung, leading to a successful transplant and full recovery.
A 33-year-old man in critical condition from flu and bacterial pneumonia was kept alive for 48 hours without lungs using a custom artificial lung system developed by Northwestern University surgeons.
The device fully replaced lung function, oxygenating blood and maintaining heart stability, allowing time for infection control and a successful double lung transplant.
He recovered fully and remains healthy over two years later, marking a breakthrough in treating patients with irreversible lung failure who were previously considered ineligible for transplant.
