Abstract

The scarcity of organs available for lung transplantation makes it necessary to develop consistent practices for candidate selection and organ allocation. Such policies are mainly built on prognostic estimations, which are again built on medical evidence. In addition, however, other factors also guide these practices. These factors are not always explicit. The purpose of this review is to discuss some of these factors.
