Abstract Background The outcome of heart transplantation is significantly affected by perioperative infections. Individualised immunosuppression strategies are essential to reduce the risk of such infections. Case presentation We report the successful management of a 56-year-old male patient diagnosed with dilated cardiomyopathy who underwent heart transplantation. During the perioperative period, the patient was prescribed cefoperazone sodium and sulbactam sodium, which induced a severe skin reaction: toxic epidermal necrolysis (TEN). The patient was treated with prednisone, immunoglobulins, etanercept, and other active immunomodulatory measures, together with an individualised anti-rejection regimen and physical therapy. The systemic rash resolved within a month, and the patient was successfully discharged after surgery. Conclusion Effective management of heart transplantation necessitates balancing immunosuppression and infection prevention. Individualised immunosuppressive strategies are critical for optimal clinical outcomes. |
