When they get re-attached and the blood flow is started back up, that's the reperfusion part. It happens in every organ transplant and causes a lot of issues, from very mild types of injury to the lungs, to complete failure of the lung - and we don't quite understand why.
They found that B-cells which infiltrate the lung worsen lung function by producing more white blood cells (monocytes) and promoting the leakage of neutrophils...into surrounding tissues.
