Invasive Fungal Infections After Intestine Transplantation: Epidemiology and Outcomes
ABSTRACT Background Invasive fungal infections (IFIs) represent a major complication after intestine transplantation, with reported incidence rates between 40% and 49%. These infections are associated with high morbidity and allograft loss. This study evaluates the impact of post‐transplant IFIs on graft outcomes in intestine transplant recipients ...
