Abstract：
Selection of lung transplant candidates is an evolving field that pushes the boundaries of what is considered the norm. Given the continually changing demographics of the typical lung transplant recipient as well as the growing list of risk factors that predispose patients to poor posttransplant outcomes, we explore the dilemmas in lung transplant candidate selections pertaining to older age, frailty, low and high body mass index, preexisting cancers, and systemic autoimmune rheumatic diseases.
