Abstract:
The authors are revising the evolution of a female patient with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis which suffered an unilateral lung transplant. This was followed by a long list of complications (chronic reject reaction, gastro-enteritis, CMV and Herpes virus infection, bone fractures, recurrent respiratory infections etc). These events are analyzed, pointing out the attitude in the new post-transplant conditions.
