Abstract

A 60-year-old man with cystic fibrosis, mediastinal shift and end-stage kidney disease underwent a heart–lung–kidney transplantation. His explanted heart was used for a domino heart transplantation. This case showed an excellent outcome, even with high preoperative acuity requiring veno-venous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation and continuous veno-venous haemodialysis.
