Successful Medical Management of Pulmonary Gangrene in a Transplanted Lung
Pulmonary gangrene (PG) is a potentially devastating complication of necrotizing pneumonia. We describe successful nonsurgical management of PG in a lung transplant recipient. The patient presented with symptoms and imaging consistent with pneumonia. Bronchoalveolar lavage cultures demonstrated polymicrobial growth and antibiotic treatments were tailored. Imaging demonstrated a large cavitary lesion with intracavitary lung tissue consistent with PG. Prolonged antibiotic therapy resulted in clinical improvement and radiographic resolution.
期刊介绍:
Transplantation Proceedings publishes several different categories of manuscripts, all of which undergo extensive peer review by recognized authorities in the field prior to their acceptance for publication.
The first type of manuscripts consists of sets of papers providing an in-depth expression of the current state of the art in various rapidly developing components of world transplantation biology and medicine. These manuscripts emanate from congresses of the affiliated transplantation societies, from Symposia sponsored by the Societies, as well as special Conferences and Workshops covering related topics.
Transplantation Proceedings also publishes several special sections including publication of Clinical Transplantation Proceedings, being rapid original contributions of preclinical and clinical experiences. These manuscripts undergo review by members of the Editorial Board.
Original basic or clinical science articles, clinical trials and case studies can be submitted to the journal?s open access companion title Transplantation Reports.
