Pediatric Post-Transplant Complications

Pediatric post-transplant complications refer to the health issues that can arise in children after they receive an organ transplant, such as a kidney or heart. These complications can include infections, which are more likely due to immune-suppressing medications, and the risk of the body rejecting the new organ. Children may also experience long-term problems like growth delays or issues with their blood pressure and cholesterol levels. Regular medical follow-ups are crucial to monitor their health, manage medications, and address any complications early to ensure the best possible outcomes after the transplant.
