摘　　要：To the Editor:During the coronavirus disease 2019(COVID-19)pandemic in China,cadaveric organ donation became drastically reduced,which exacerbated the waitlist morbidity and mortality of lung transplant(LTx)patients.We report a case where we were able to maximize the utilization of the lungs from a single cadaveric donor by performing a single left LTx for one recipient using the donor’s left lung,and by bipartitioning the donor’s right lung,we were able to perform bilateral lobar transplantation for another recipient.
