Aguilar CA, et al. - Clinical risk factors associated with invasive aspergillosis (IA) were investigated in lung transplant recipients (LTRs). In addition, researchers ascertained the mortality in LTRs who had at least one episode of IA vs those who never had experienced IA. An international, multicenter, retrospective cohort study of 900 consecutive adult LTRs transplanted between 2005 and 2008 with 4 years of follow-up was performed suggesting a high incidence of IA in LTRs. IA was noted to be significantly associated with single lung transplant and airway colonization with Aspergillus spp. at 1 year post-transplant.
