  • Title: Disseminated toxoplasmosis with pulmonary involvement after heart transplantation.
    Author: Fricker-Hidalgo H, Brion JP, Durand M, Chavanon O, Brenier-Pinchart MP, Pelloux H.
    Journal: Transpl Infect Dis; 2005 Mar; 7(1):38-40. PubMed ID: 15984948.
    Abstract:
    We report a case of pulmonary toxoplasmosis after heart transplant despite the prophylactic anti-toxoplasmic treatment that was given but was not sufficient to prevent toxoplasmosis. However, the patient survived thanks to early diagnosis confirmed by polymerase chain reaction on blood and by serological techniques, and early treatment.
