Immunosuppression, Surgery, Complication? Abstract. Surgical conditions sometimes pose major diagnostic and therapeutic challenges for immunosuppressed patients. Especially in patients suffering from diseases with potential septic emergencies or postoperative complications, the indication for elective surgery should be discussed at an early stage. This is best done across disciplines, involving all experts and the patient.

Patients receiving kidney transplant experience immunosuppression, which increases the risk of bacterial, viral, fungal, and parasitic infections. Q fever is a potentially fatal infectious disease that affects immunocompromised renal transplant recipients and has implications in terms of severe consequences for the donor's kidney. A patient with acute Q fever infection following kidney transplantation was admitted to the Tsinghua Changgung Hospital in Beijing, China, in March 2021.

Lower respiratory tract infections are particularly frequent in hematological patients; their early diagnosis and the timely start of targeted therapy are essential. Bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) can provide a microbiological sample from the lower airways in a minimally invasive way. This study aimed to determine the diagnostic yield of BAL in hematological patients for microbiological purposes and its influence on modifying the therapeutic strategy.
