摘要
Solid organ transplant (SOT) recipients with coronavirus disease-2019 (COVID-19) experience prolonged viral shedding, and they are forced to stay in the hospital because of the requirement for COVID-19 isolation. Here, we present two cases (lung and renal transplant recipients), wherein the isolation period was shortened by reducing the dosage of mycophenolate mofetil (MMF). Both patients recovered well from COVID-19 pneumonia. This case study suggests that a reduction in MMF dosage may lead to a shorter hospitalization period in SOT recipients with COVID-19.
