For such patients, combined lung-liver transplantation remains the only therapeutic option. In this article we present the first simultaneous lung-liver transplantation in Poland, as well as in Central and Eastern Europe, with detailed clinical history, surgical aspects, and postoperative course.<br />Competing Interests: Declaration of Competing Interest None.<br /> (Copyright © 2022.
