Tuberculosis in pediatric solid organ and hematopoietic stem cell transplant recipients.

The burden of tuberculosis after pediatric solid organ transplant or hematopoietic stem cell transplantation has not been well characterized. We report 7 pediatric cases with disseminated (4/7) or pulmonary (3/7) tuberculosis after solid organ transplant (n=6) or hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (n=1) during 26 years. The outcome was favorable in 6 patients.
