Popis:	Very few cases of lung transplantation have been described for patients with Kartagener's syndrome. We report the first case to be published in Spain. A 15-year-old girl with complete Kartagener's syndrome underwent sequential transplantation of both lungs. Due to the unusual distribution of the organs in this syndrome, the bronchial stumps of donor and recipient had to be distributed differently. With the initial technical difficulties overcome, the patient now leads a normal life two years after transplantation.
