Abstract

Two lung transplant recipients had concomitant acute sinusitis and acute lung rejection. Antibiotics and decongestants alleviated the sinusitis, but the symptoms of cough and dyspnea as well as spirometric defects necessitated treatment of acute lung rejection. In patients with clinical evidence of acute sinusitis after lung transplantation, concomitant acute lung rejection should be suspected if dyspnea or pulmonary dysfunction is also present. This appears to be the first report of concomitant acute sinusitis and acute lung rejection.
