Abstract
Calcineurin inhibitor-related tremors occur in up to 50% of solid organ transplant recipients and are disabling in severe cases. We describe a bilateral lung transplant recipient with essential tremors that significantly worsened after tacrolimus initiation. She did not have improvement with the change to extended-release tacrolimus, the use of everolimus as a calcineurin inhibitor-sparing agent, or the addition of primidone, clonazepam, or propranolol. She underwent magnetic resonance-guided focused ultrasound thalamotomy with significant improvement in her tremor and activities of daily living.
