Hermansky-Pudlak syndrome (HPS) is a genetic disorder characterized by oculocutaneous albinism, a bleeding diathesis, and in a subset of patients, pulmonary fibrosis. Lung transplantation, the only curative therapy for pulmonary fibrosis, has not been previously reported as a successful treatment strategy for patients with HPS because the bleeding diathesis was thought to contraindicate major thoracic surgery. We successfully performed bilateral sequential lung transplantation in a patient with pulmonary fibrosis and HPS after transfusion of 6 units of platelets. Lung transplantation is a viable therapeutic option in patients with pulmonary fibrosis and only a mild bleeding diathesis associated with HPS.
