Objectives: A case report of lymphoid interstitial pneumonia (LIP) in a renal transplant patient who is immunosuppressed with tacrolimus.
Background: LIP is a rare lymphoproliferative disorder affecting the lungs. It is described in the literature as: diffuse infiltration of the alveolar septa by dense collections of lymphocytes and a mixture of plasma cells and other elements. LIP is associated with several conditions, most of which affect the immune system. The development of this condition following immunosuppression with sirolimus is mentioned in the literature but there are currently no documented cases on the development of LIP following treatment with tacrolimus.
Methods: Case report and literature review.
