About Lung Transplant Rejection

Following transplantation there is an inherent risk of rejection, where the recipient's immune system will recognize the donated lungs as foreign and attack the transplanted organ. Within the first three months, patients are at highest risk of acute rejection. However, as the patient moves out in time, the primary cause of death in up to 76 percent of cases is chronic rejection, which usually manifests after the first year. This is characterized by chronic inflammation and irreversible scarring of the lungs, a condition known as bronchiolitis obliterans.
