The Impact of Donor‐Recipient Human Leukocyte Antigen Matching on Bronchiolitis Obliterans‐Free Survival Among Lung Transplant Recipients With Connective Tissue Diseases
Among transplant recipients with CTD-LD, HLA donor-recipient matching, including at the DR loci, does not result in worse BOS-free survival. Based on these findings, there is no reason to treat these as unacceptable antigens when considering donor offers for CTD-LD candidates.
