Lung transplantation, definitive therapy for end-stage lung disease, is limited long-term by allograft dysfunction including bronchiolitis obliterans syndrome (BOS). Few modifiable risk factors for pulmonary transplant-related mortality are recognized. However, oropharyngeal dysphagia frequently occurs after thoracic surgical procedures, including lung transplantation, and increases morbidity. We evaluated the impact of oropharyngeal dysphagia on survival and BOS after lung transplantation.
