Article Synopsis
- Gastrointestinal complications such as new-onset inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) can occur after solid organ transplants, with a focus on its incidence post-kidney transplantation (KT) being previously unknown.
- A study analyzed six patients who developed de novo IBD after KT among 232 recipients over a 6.1-year observation period, revealing a calculated incidence of 355.8 cases per 100,000 person-years.
- Although the sample was small, findings suggest the incidence of de novo IBD after KT might be comparable to that after liver transplantation and higher than in the general population, warranting further research for confirmation.
