Jose Luis Campo-Cañaveral de la Cruz et al. Eur J Cardiothorac Surg. 2012 Aug.

Abstract

Hyperacute rejection (HAR) is a well-known complication in renal and cardiac transplantation, but rare in lung recipients. We present a case of HAR of the lung graft with a fatal outcome of a male patient with preformed class II anti-HLA antibodies.
