Single lung transplantation. Factors in postoperative cytomegalovirus infection.
1992
Thirty-one single lung transplantations were performed between March 17, 1988, and November 1, 1990. Postoperative infection, especially with cytomegalovirus, has been the major cause of morbidity and mortality. Eighteen of the 31 patients were receiving prednisone before transplantation. Every patient was prepared preoperatively with oral cyclosporine 5 mg/kg and azathioprine (Imuran) 2 mg/kg
