An Israeli girl who received a double lung transplant in November from a man who had read of her plight in his local Jewish paper died Saturday in St. Louis. Although the transplant was completed successfully, Lisa Ostrovsky, a 10-year-old who suffered from cystic fibrosis, died of multiple post-operative complications, hospital officials said.
