Abstract: | The morbidity in the long-term course following heart transplantation in childhood is mainly determined by the morbidity of the transplanted graft, by side effects caused by immunosuppression and by psychosocial morbidity due to the special situation of life and growing up with a transplanted heart. Transplant vasculopathy as a specific disease of the transplanted organ itself, is a common complication following heart transplantation and is an important factor of morbidity and mortality, considerably limiting the long-term prognosis. Progressive disturbance of renal function and cumulative incidence of malignant tumors is a further factor limiting prognosis caused by the side effects of immunosuppression. |
