One-year lung transplantation outcomes for engineered stone countertop workers with silicosis at a single center in Southern California, 2019 to 2023

One-year lung transplantation outcomes for engineered stone countertop workers with silicosis at a single center in Southern California, 2019 to 2023

Background: In the past decade, growing industrial exposure to respirable crystalline silica from manufacturing engineered stone (ES) products has caused rapidly progressive, irreversible silicosis worldwide.
