Abstrakt: The article discusses the results of a study that examined the pulmonary complications in patients post-hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). The study showed that either infectious or non-infectious pulmonary complications occur in over one-third of patients post-HSCT despite advances in HSCT. The infectious complications included Nocardia pneumonia and Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Also discussed are invasive pulmonary aspergillosis and late pulmonary complications.
