摘要：
Patients undergoing transplantation have an increased risk of developing infections such as tuberculosis, Pneumocystis carinii pneumonia, Candida infections or cytomegalovirus infections because of their immunosuppressive therapy with cyclosporin A, azathioprine and steroids. Mycobacterial infection is well recognized as a complication in the immunocompromised host but diagnosis and therapy are very difficult.
