Fungal Infections After Lung Transplantation.
Clinics in Chest Medicine 2017 September
Infection remains a significant source of morbidity and mortality after lung transplant, including fungal infection. Various antifungal prophylactic agents are administered for a variable duration after transplant with the goal of preventing invasive fungal infections. Alternatively, some programs target the use of antifungal agents only in those colonized with Aspergillus spp. Despite prophylaxis or preemptive therapy, a significant number of invasive fungal infections occur after lung transplant. Risk factors for fungal infections include single lung transplant, pretransplant Aspergillus colonization, environmental risks, structural lung disease such as cystic fibrosis, augmented immunosuppression, sinus disease, and use of indwelling airway stents.
