  • Title: Noninfectious pulmonary complications of liver, heart, and kidney transplantation.
    Author: Kotloff RM.
    Journal: Clin Chest Med; 2005 Dec; 26(4):623-9, vii. PubMed ID: 16263401.
    Abstract:
    Because of their chronically immunosuppressed status, solid organ transplant recipients are continually at risk for infectious pulmonary complications. In addition, however, a number of noninfectious pulmonary complications plague the transplant recipient. These complications arise because of numerous factors, including the underlying conditions that preceded transplantation, the transplant surgery itself, and toxicity of post-transplantation medications. This article focuses on noninfectious pulmonary complications in the three largest recipient populations: liver, kidney, and heart.
