Abstract
With the rapid and massive vaccination campaign against coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) taking place across the globe, there are increasing reports of thrombotic complications with various COVID-19 vaccines such as the Pfizer–BioNTech mRNA, Moderna mRNA, AstraZeneca Oxford (serum institute), and Johnson & Johnson/Janssen vaccines. We report a case of successful organ donation from an 18-year-old woman who presented with cerebral venous thrombosis caused by vaccine-induced thrombotic thrombocytopenia following the first dose of the COVID-19 vaccine (AstraZeneca, University of Oxford, and Serum Institute of India), which caused brain death. Four recipients received 5 organs, kidneys (2), liver (1), and combined heart and lung (1). All 4 recipients had normal graft function without any thrombotic complications after 16 weeks of transplantation. This is first such case being reported from Asian countries.
