In this picture taken on December 9, 2022, thoracic surgeon Thomas Charrier (L) and Ludovic Dupautet (R) prepare the lungs of a deceased patient ahead of their transplantation in an operating room at the Foch hospital in Suresnes outside Paris, following their removal earlier in the day in an undisclosed hospital in eastern France. - During an organ transplant, from the moment the organ is removed from a donor, a "race against time" is undertaken until the transplantation. A feat made possible thanks to the human chain that will be deployed for several hours. (Photo by Christophe ARCHAMBAULT / AFP)
