Effect of etiology and timing of respiratory tract infections on development of bronchiolitis obliterans syndrome.
J Heart Lung Transplant. 2009; (2): 163-9
Among the many potential risk factors influencing the development of bronchiolitis obliterans syndrome (BOS), acute cellular rejection is the most frequently identified. Despite the unique susceptibility of the lung allograft to pathogens, the association with respiratory tract infections remains unclear. In this study we analyze the role respiratory tract infections have on the development of BOS after lung transplantation.
