Abstract
Combined organ transplants have been associated with less acute and chronic post-transplant rejection than isolated organ transplants, suggesting an altered immune response to the multi-organ allograft milieu. The incidence of combined heart and kidney transplantation (HKTx) has significantly increased over the last few years. Whether the addition of kidney transplantation has a protective immune effect against developing cardiac allograft vasculopathy (CAV) has not been fully investigated. We sought to assess the incidence of CAV in HKTx recipients at our single center.
