Post heart/lung transplantation management.

Patients with cystic fibrosis present a challenge to management post-transplantation but the results are comparable with those obtained in patients with other conditions. The increasing population of cystic fibrosis patients who have undergone transplantation will require joint management of such patients by cystic fibrosis specialists and pulmonary transplant specialists. The follow-up of patients with cystic fibrosis following pulmonary transplantation potentially affords us an exciting opportunity to study the natural history of this disease as it affects the extra pulmonary organs.
