Fungal colonization before or after lung transplantation has no negative impact on survival or the development of chronic lung allograft dysfunction
The results of the current study indicate that fungal colonization either pre-transplantation or within the first 12 months after does not correlate with increased risks of mortality or CLAD development. These findings show that while fungal colonization is a common occurrence in LTx recipients, it does not predispose the patients of the cohort to adverse outcomes.
