Abstract
Intestinal perforation after lung transplantation is common in elderly patients with diverticulitis. The distal intestinal obstruction syndrome (DIOS) is a current complication in patients with cystic fibrosis. Myelosuppressive drugs as in most immunosuppressive regimens can cause cytopenia. Thrombotic microangiopathy is often caused by immunosuppressive regimen with a calcineurin-inhibitor in combination with a proliferation signal-inhibitor. Although renal failure and neurological symptoms are often additional side effects of the immunosuppressive therapy there are no reliable data on CNI-free protocols. Studies have shown that administration of statins is associated with improved function and survival of lung allografts.
