内容説明
Lung transplantation is currently an accepted modality for treatment of end-stage lung disease. Pulmonary immunology is an example of an area where each intervention, whether medical or surgical, can be a significant influence. This book simplifies the science of pulmonary immunology for clinicians involved in the management of lung transplant. It begins with the basics of lung immunology and moves on to alterations that develop in the lung allograft as it is subjected to a variety of insults, such as ischemia, reperfusion, infection and the long-term sequella associated with obliterative bronchiolitis and viral infections. The book also addresses how immunosuppressive medications, whether during induction or long-term, may influence the lung allograft immune mechanisms, thereby affecting potential risks of rejection and infection.

内容説明
This book covers the various immunological aspects of the lung allograft. It includes both basic definitions of the types of injury to the lung from the time it is harvested and implanted to the long-term sequela. The chapters are arranged to address the effect of ischemia-reperfusion, acute rejection and infections. It addresses our current understanding of chronic rejection and obliterative bronchiolitis. The final chapter discusses the possible mechanisms of chronic irreversible graft dysfunction and the animal models currently available to study it. The book is written with the specific aim of providing those who are involved in the care of lung transplant recipients with a full coverage of the immunology of the lung allograft.
