University Hospital offers advanced Lung Transplant using modern transplant and thoracic surgical techniques and internationally accepted treatment protocols. Established in 1842, the SAC hospital is located in Basel, Switzerland and has 773 beds, providing comprehensive transplant care for local and international patients.

Lung Transplant may be considered for patients with advanced lung disease when other treatments no longer provide adequate control of the condition. Depending on the patient's diagnosis and clinical status, a single-lung or double-lung transplant may be performed. Before transplantation, patients undergo detailed evaluation of lung function, heart health, overall medical condition, and transplant suitability. After surgery, immunosuppressive medicines, close monitoring, and pulmonary rehabilitation are essential to support graft function and recovery.
