Overview

The prognosis of the patient depends on a number of donor and recipient factors. If left untreated, patients develop acute graft rejection. Common complications of cardiac transplant include acute graft rejection, graft failure, infections, Cardiac allograft vasculopathy (CAV), malignancies, and late graft rejection.

Complications and Causes of Death after Transplantation

The following table outlines the common causes of death in post-cardiac transplant patients [1]

First 30 days post-transplant From 1 month to 12 months post-transplant After 5 years post-transplant
  • Cardiac allograft vasculopathy (CAV)
  • Late graft failure (Both together accounting for 33% of deaths)
  • Malignancies (23%)
  • Non-CMV infections (11%)

Prognosis

  • Depending on the various factors of the donor and recipient at the time of transplant, the prognosis may vary.
  • Prognosis is generally regarded as good. The 1-year survival is 84.5% and 5-year survival is 72.5%. [2]
  • Post-transplant survival has improved over time.
  • The median survival after adult heart transplants performed between 2002 and 2009 is 12.5 years, which extends to 14.8 years among 1-year survivors. [3]

The following are the factors determining prognosis-

Donor factors

Both the following factors are associated with an increased one-year mortality rate in the recipient.

Recipient factors

Some other risk factors are:
